    Everything looks good to me.
    Don’t really care for the forum side bar on the right side always bouncing around, expanding and contracting and what not.

    Also I’m not too sure how the back end interface for the joomsocial looks, but maybe you could bold the text links in the community news.

    So that it says something more along the lines of:
    ” [u][b]User[/b][/u] has posted a new topic in [u][b]Forum[/b][/u] ”

    Rather than all the same text. just so that lazy people like me don’t have to read the whole thing to see what topic it is.

    Also not sure if you can change how much information is provided on the community news? Like avatar changes and what not might bump some more important forum questions off the main page list.

    Other than that. everything looks good, and is working good for me.

    One thing I would try is I’m pretty sure the version of Shout box Jimmo is using is Java based.
    Maybe check to see if you have the newest version of java installed:

    Another thing I notice is that the main site doesn’t show you logged in, and you can’t post a message without being logged in.

    Maybe there’s a glitch, and you need to log out, and log back in to get it to recognize you logged in?

    Hmm that’s weird, I can’t reproduce your problem. Even works on my phone. the type box is there and you cam type in it and all? Just won’t let you send?
    You’re making sure you’re chicked on the type box when you push enter too?

    Anyone else having issues with it?

    400 is overkill for anything but a reclear.
    It’s going to take some serious film build to sand and then polish out 400 grit scratches on an entire car.

    I’ve tried starting with 600 and 800, and 1000, and 1500.
    And to be honest the results between them are miniscule.

    To be honest, it’s easier to just buzz a surface with 600, and reclear it, then do the last coat with 1500, step up to 2000, 2500, then polish.

    And the results look virtually identical.

    In my personal opinion, anyone that is starting their color sanding (On an overall) with anything below 800 is nuts. Hell, I won’t go under 1000, because the difference in the end just isn’t there. And the additional time working out the 800 grit ain’t worth it.

    Yes, nibbing a spot, and working out imperfections in specific area’s is an exception. in this case I’ve even gone down to 220 (But only to work out bulk)

    It’s easy as shit to work out an area with such low grits. it’s HELL working out an entire car that way.

    If you hit it with anything under 800, save yourself the headache, and finish it with 600 and re clear.

    The dented can special? All my cans are always dented… :chair

    Yeah, that thing turned out horrible. Can’t believe duplicolor let them air it. And to be honest they probably didn’t save nearly enough money for that end result

    Look like it’s coming together.

    It’s always someone Else’s fault in the shop. :chair

    Hobo Freight Buffer Backing pad, Busted right in half and put the full speed buffer arbor right onto a hood. Win! :S

    They say they come in three’s so you’re probably set on bad things happening for awhile.

    That is why bondo’s got it good, he only works on turds. :stoned

    Most DRP shops I know are scared shitless to ask for anything from insurance companies. :S
