Patience, CS, even though it might appear otherwise, I don't actually hit the refresh button on the THGC Graphics Card Forum every 30 seconds 24/7. :lol:

Of course I'd absolutely <font color=purple><i>LOVE</i></font color=purple> to contribute. I've alway wanted to do something for THGC. In fact if I get let in on this project I'll drop the lame "THGC Forum Cemetary" idea.

Also, I don't think we ouught to have more than one sticky in this forum considering all the frequent traffic that the Graphics Card section has. If we can somehow have a link on the Buyer's Guide or add the info into the guide itself under a new heading, & rename the Guide to another title since it would be more than just a "buyer's guide" at that point. I would be greatly honored to help sponser this. Let's see what spitfire & <b><font color=red>Fredi</b></font color=red> thinks about this.

No problem with version 2. If the v2 is really better than v1, then I'll upgrade the current buyers' guide to v2.

No need of 2 different stickies.

Okay, but we can't leave all the researche & web maintance soley up to you. If we are a devoted community to the Graphics Forum, than several people (including myself) are going to have to share the burden. It's only fair & right.

Research job is for all THGC members. And I think nobody except the original poster can edit a post. I don't have trouble with maintainence and IMO, only 1 people should maintain the guide.

I have an idea-

Guide V1 will not be modified.

There will be a link after every recommended card

The linked page will contain detail facts about the card (the facts you wanted to list in the V2)

I will host the additional webpages in my Geocities account.
