Nyko I'm having some problems with voting. Everytime I vote I need to refresh the page because if I don't do it the system won't assume the vote. Are you aware of this issue or it's just me?

Sorry to post on your wall but I had posted an entry for the Retrospective Competition and saw that you informed me that I put it in the checkup folder instead of the submit folder. Is it possible to still upload or transfer the files, I haven't made any changes? The car name was The Avant and my username is Chek84. Thanks.

Marion, Judge, and BB, Tony said he fixed the commenting, and as BB said, there are some growing pains. With the change to the website came over 1000 modifications and changes, which was just huge. This was a huge undertaking by mostly Tim and Tony-- I helped provide some of the new graphics and color schemes, but it was a lot of work. Please continue to let us know where we have bugs, and we will try to fix them as soon as we can. We really appreciate your feedback. If any of you can try to post to Marions checkup, or Bentleyboy's checkup to see if the commenting is working, that would be awesome!

Hey Nyko, thanks for the tinychat today, I really enjoyed that. Just wondering if there is a way to pair screen names to RF numbers. Curious to see who's got them and find out who's got them, or who it is in my area that has one reserved. Might be a question for 'tom' but dont know his screen name.

Hey there....here is a message on your wall like you said to do. in reference to the "not crappy Minivan" idea for the SWC or competition. A group of us here in Afghanistan were thinking that this would help men around the world not feel terrible everytime they step into their car. just let me know what I would have to do or information or whatever...thank for the interest...think this could be very cool and I know it would be somethign that people would want to buy if it ever made build phase.

Hi Nicolas. Since you're a well-trusted member here, I have a slightly urgent request. I'm in China trying to submit my design for Texas Motors, but the firewall here is preventing me from uploading. Since the deadline is quickly approaching, I was hoping you or someone at LM could help me out asap. My images are readily available via e-mail or on my flickr. My e-mail is interpolactic@yahoo.com. Thanks for any help you are able to provide!

Hi,I had a bit of an idea the other day I thought it would be cool if there was like a sister site to LM which was more for training the designers so like the SWC but on a grander scale. Obviously there is other things to think about but i thought it would help bring members quality up and improve competition.

Thanks for the comment on the Maverick SUV. I won't be entering the competition, but I hope to return to the roadster version soon. I appreciate your enthusiasm for it as it gives me motivation to continue the development. I like it as an edgier reincarnation of the Cobra, one that doesn't possess the literal translation that Ford, Shelby, and Iconic AC have tried with mixed results. I think constantly bringing out a "new" Cobra only to see its been barely updated or copied straight off of the original is kind of sickening. Yes, it's a classic, legendary muscle car, but same day someone has to say enough is enough and start with a new slate, albeit keeping a philosophy that respects the original in packaging and soul. I think LM, with its agility and cult following, would be an apropos motor company to intro a fresh interpretation of the Cobra platform aka something a bit like the Maverick Roadster...and maybe even a fastback coupe that channels the original Daytona. LM has a muscle car for the dirt in the Rally Fighter, now it could afford to build one for the road...if the community so desires. And the community has seemed to follow my Ferrari checkup (iterations 1-8 particularly) favorably, from which the Maverick evolved...so, who knows... Anyway, when I get back to posting some updates on the Mav', I would appreciate it if you and Aurel could give a bit of your time to offer some suggestions and/or sketchover/renders on improving the packaging and aesthetic quality. Thank you again Nyko!

Hey, Idesign. I was just wondering. The sketchwall thing was weekly, but this one is here for 14 days or so. For me it doesn't really matter if it is late 2 or 3 days, but isn't there supposed to be a new one. Or did you run out of ideas (hehehe)? Greetz Robert

Way to go with the SketchWall Challenge! You are carrying forward the motivation I hoped to incite with my forum post in a proactive manner that will up the game at LM. You really have a knack for creative leadership. I was thinking, a theme for one of the sketchwall challenges could be the future of electric motorcycles (not mopeds particulalrly, though) for urban and/or performance applications - let me know if this sounds interesting and I'll compile a brief of designs in this emerging market. Keep it rockin'!

Ari gave a good description of "bandwidth" on Braun's checkup, in short, it simply means that sometimes Process entries languish because we have too much going on to be able to commit to iterations. This is the limited bandwidth issue, that we always struggle with. I did not want to commit to braun and then let it go forward slowly without much work from us. If you and others are willing to dive into Process and help, that is always a plus. Hope this helps to explain.

anyways, i do use a pen-tablet, but not a very reputed one if i may say so... its called a genius :-P i guess its made in china or somthin, but i got a reasonably sized one for a very good price! since i only started tablet rendering about 8months ago, i thought of buying a cheap one first... buy a wacom once i can afford it
anyways thanks again bro for the kind words! i really appreciate it!

I've since thought of 2 more categories to consider, one would depend on the comp and maybe part of meeting the design criteria, but a category for a small carbon footprint or eco quality of design. The other would sort of be related to design, but separate from presentation, which could be dealing with the board's graphics / diagrams / descriptions, etc., separate from the vehicle design. Grading the vehicle's style or design as to the persona it exudes. Like some situation calls for a elegant & restrained design like our current winner, but another might call for a glitzy, look at me, hormone oozing, concept. Also if 2 solutions equally resolve a design criteria, should the vehicle that looks buildable for $35,000 automatically be chosen over the design that would probably cost 5 times more?

Hey Nick, in case I don't make it to next weeks scoring discussion can you let the group know that I can live with a 5 point scoring system for 3 separate categories. The categories: meeting design criteria, innovation/engineering, and presentation for a total of 15 points, which can then be divided by 3. If it acceptable, buildability might be another category, but I don't know about one just for overall design.

Can you take a look at my recent post at Detroit444 about the selection process. I can understand your multiple step development of a design. But if prizes are still given out, are you suggesting that smaller prizes are given out at each stage of the different categories of development? Otherwise the initial front runners would still need to be chosen by some method for development. Subsequent participation by members will be because of interest and/or the satisfaction that their participation might end up in a production vehicle. This procedure will probably lead to more time consuming comps and therefore fewer yearly competitions. Which is also fine with me, as I feel all the comps should be introduced months in advance, for more in depth study & design. If I were going to start a car company, the designs chosen for production would definitely have taken far longer to refine. I honestly suggest that LM should reveal the design parameters for several comps months in advance, the contest should not be a 'race' to come up with a well thought out design in just a few weeks time.

Hi Nyko, thanks for your comment on my Manhattan design. I provided a response to yours and the other people's questions on the comments section. Also, well done on your own Manhattan entry. Hey, is that a catamaran design in image 13343, if it is, it's downright awesome!

Nyko, I have visited your website and read through your introduction and I am inspired! First, let me congratulate you on those taught concave surfaces on the Retro Roadster Muse. Front fenders, shoulders, rear deck...excellent. The Blu*Bird LSRV is also thrilling to see. I cannot wait to see your work in the LM community and to see your enthusiasm translate to others here. You should definitely be in Manhattan Motors. Welcome.

Hi Andre, I just wanted to reach out and let you know we are aware that you have just received a spam message. Please ignore this message from Sussy041. We are working on this.
Hi Miles+, I am still hopeful you will change your Portfolio images in the next few hours as we have asked, unless these images belong to you. It is not right to post other's work as your own, and the Local Motors portfolio is a space for your work or work you have collaborated on. Because of this, we strongly discourage posting photos that do not belong to you in your portfolio. Unfortunately, if these photos are not removed in the next 8 hours, we will need to remove them. I hope to see some of your work soon.
Miles, did you receive my e-mail I sent a couple of weeks ago? While I share your enthusiasm for the vehicles you are showing here in your portfolio, if you are not the original creator of this content, we would ask you to please remove these photos from your portfolio. The portfolio section is intended for you to show off YOUR work, not work of others. I would appreciate it if you would remove any content not belonging to you as soon as possible (within 48hrs), and replace it with your own work. Thank you.
Very nice sketches kekeov! Its nice to see you've been working hard!
Hey Chris, I don't have any experience with solidworks, and Mike just took off for the weekend and will be back next tuesday-- I know thats almost a week. I'll ask our new engineer Alex if he has any idea since he has some experience with SW08. I'm sorry I'm not able to help out right now though.
