In the Members Only section, there is a forum for posting photos of Member Cars. These photos/threads can be viewed by the general public, but should not be. This forum was originally designed as a Members Only forum (which is why it is placed where it is). Please change the view-ability settings of this forum back to Members only.
In the Photos of Member Vehicles, further down in the forum list, VCCA Members can post a photo, but no replies are permitted (by design), and these photos can be viewed by the general public so as to represent the different years of Member vehicles. Chat Members who are not VCCA Members cannot post photos in this area.
Here's a blurb I posted last year to explain the newer sections for Photos of Member Vehicles:
The new area gives the VCCA members a place to show their ride in threads that are organized by year. Here are some advantages of these threads:
- These photos are open to the public to view. So, if an interested, non-member wants to see some of our great vehicles, they can. Maybe it will incent them to join the club.
- The other photo threads in Chatter are in the VCCA members only area. Being able to see and search these areas are one of the many benefits of joining the VCCA.
- The new area is fairly self maintaining. Each person is restricted to one photo per upload and no replies are allowed. This means less work for the admin folks. Very little, if no moderating is necessary.
Photos from any of the threads can be pulled in or referenced in any discussion thread.
However, since only VCCA members can access the photos in the Member Only areas, only VCCA members can capture the photo's location and therefore only Members can reference these photos in other threads.
Thanks, Dean
