  1. I would help, but you know... Looks simple, just time consuming.

    Trials Wiki

    Should look ok in IE now, just ctrl + f5 on any page that looks messed up NOTE: ANYONE CAN EDIT/ADD STUFF TO THE PAGES!! when you're on a page and you notice a mistake/think something should be added, just click the 'edit' link on the left hand side (quite far down) and edit away and press save. Changes appear instantly. To add a page, make a new link (look at the existing links on the page to see how they're done) and click save, then click the link you just made and add the info The wiki is seperate from the forum, so you will need to sign up to it seperatly (although guests can edit too). I'll integrate to 2 at a laster date.

    Nice work seems to be coming together a bit. Again I reccomend either clearing your cache or pressing ctrl + f5 to see the changes to the skin I've made, looking a bit better now. edit: except in fecking IE

    Hmm yeah noticed that. Any idea how to sort it if you're an admin? (new to this too..) Seems to work now? I got redirected from Tightening_cranks to Tightening_Cranks

    doh.. The skins kinda looking better. (is the new skin showing for you? it looks a bit like the TF skin) - you will need to do a hard refresh anyway (ctrl + f5) to update the changes I just made Edit, unless your using internet explorer, in which case itll look shit. doh.

    Well said. I'll copy a page over from somewhere else on the basics of wikis. As you may have noticed (if your using it now) I'm kinda sorting the skin out. Not perfect yet (never will be to be honest) but bear with me..
  7. Erm, its quite expensive.. http://www.avonlinebroadband.co.uk/satelli...es/pricing.html
  8. Very true, 14 day 'cooling off' period

    Driving

    True, although I don't think rushing it gives you any benefit. All the drivers I know who passed after 3/4/5 tests were better drivers than I was after 1. There certainly seems to be a ratio between amount of lessons taken to the number of crashes in the first 3 months of driving amongst the people I know. (edit, although agreed you only *properly* learn how to drive once you've passed, taking lessons and not rushing it certainly isn't going to hinder your ability to drive well once you have passed).

    Driving

    Did a crash course myself. Had about 15 hours experience driving around with my Dad, then did 10 x 1 hour lessons in a week with my instructor and a test at the end (was about £250 I think, but he ripped me off 'cos I *think* they were meant to be 2 hour lessons). Passed first time. Crashed a week later causing a few grands worth of damage (2 written off cars) a ripping from literally everyone at school and a very guilty conscience. Don't bother. Get proper road experience, you can't rush it.
  11. Um when I drove the Fiesta to Mongolia I signed up for a years insurance (payable monthly). When I got back I canceled the insurance, and they gave me back the extra for the month I had paid for. That was with Direct Line. They did say on the phone if I cancelled before the year was up they would charge me for an EXTRA month and let me go, turned out that wasn't the case though..

    Trials Wiki

    I have installed a wiki which is integrated with the forum, its disabled for the moment 'cos theres a small few bugs. But it looks very promising (and a lot simpler to use than the current wiki), I'll enable it once the bugs have been ironed out
  13. No referral schemes. (if you try it and it works, let us know.. otherwise there have been plenty of threads in the past and to my knowledge nobody has ever got anything from these)

    Trials Wiki

    http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki ta daaaaaa.. Never really got around to doing much with it. Theres a wiki mod for IPB which I'm tempted to give a go, only thing is its an unofficial mod (although looks to be well written) and its hassle for us to update it, however it is properly integrated with the board. Only problem with media wiki is that I'd like the member details to be shared between here and there. We're awaiting Invision to release 'converge' which will allow us to share member details between the forums and different apps (media wiki for example). If anyone wants to add stuff to the wiki then go for it, if it takes off I'll work on getting it integrated with the forum
  15. You could make it a lot simpler by using a photo of the bike in front of a plain background, pretty simple then.
  16. Should be more than 6.. infact, just did this for my benefit too.. Man vs Wild - 1x07 - Alaskan Mountain Range same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x06 - Alaska ---------------------------- Man vs Wild - 1x05 - Sierra Nevada same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x05 - Sierra Nevada Mountains ---------------------------- Man vs Wild - 1x03 - European Alps same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x02 - French Alps ----------------------------- Man vs Wild - 1x02 - Costa Rican Rain Forest same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x01 - Costa Rica ----------------------------- Man vs Wild - 1x01 - Moab Desert, Utah same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x07 - Moab Desert ----------------------------- Man vs Wild - 1x08 - Hawaii - Desert Island same as Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x04 - Polynesian Island Born Survivor Bear Grylls - 1x03 - Everglades, Florida, not the same as any Man Vs Wild NEW (not in born survivor series) Man vs Wild - 1x04 - Hawaii - Mount Kilauea Man vs Wild - 1x06 - African Savanna - Kenya NEW I THINK Man vs Wild - 1x09 - The Rocky Mountains
  17. For anyone thinking about downloading Man vs Wild (also a bear grylls thing on discovery it seems) don't bother, its the same as the ones on C4 3gb down the drain
  18. Auto-Mod Please use the bike pic thread.
  19. Neither of them did. Reason being: Chris is at the point where one day he will visit (pretty soon at this rate) and find his account banned, so theres not much point in warning him. And nicols_sam didn't get warned because I agree with him.. yey for democracy Eitherway, pictures in sigs won't be allowed on TF be it for a trial run or forever, which the majority of the forum seem to agree with. Time to let this one die..
  20. Auto-Mod For Sale/Wanted topics are no longer allowed in New Members Chat. If you wish to post a For Sale/Wanted topic on Trials-Forum you need to read and follow this - http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....ounce&f=13&id=3 Topic Closed.
  21. Shut up. To the rest.. pics in sigs will never be allowed. In fact its been playing on my mind for a few months now to start restricting the size (in lines) of peoples sigs 'cos some of them are just stupidly big - about 5 times bigger than any post they've ever left themselves.
  22. We call him Ray Fatty Mears, he's a legend. Literally downloaded the 7 episodes of Bear Grylls a week ago and have watched one a day since. Kicks Ray mears ass (although Ray is also still amazing) A drink along with bear game would be pretty simply. Drink 1 every time he climbs down something instead of going around 'to save time'. Drink 1 every time he tells a story of how a family/scout/explorer got into a similar situation only this year and died. Drink 2 every time he tells a story of how a family/scout/explorer got into a similar situation only this year and survived. Drink 1 every time he reminds you he's an 'experienced climber'. Drink 1 every time he eats a raw fish. you get the idea..
  23. Auto Mod Please use the Best Of The Internet for topics like this.
  24. Re-start? It'll probably fix itself. Search TF alone for MSN and you will find hundreds of topics on MSN, issues normally seem to resolve themselves.
  25. Auto-Mod Please use the bike pic thread.
