    I worked with a couple guys on getting a dream of mine live.

    I could NOT have done it without any of them.

    A project I have wanted to do is is launch a website that houses automobile news and gossip as well as a more popculture spin on things. But more than just a blog. So a forum was incorporated. I wanted this so that auto enthusiasts of any make could share stories and pictures.

    Top posts in the forum will then make the home page of the site as an article entry. So we may pick up someone's track day/autox video. Or a photoshoot, etc.

    Also, top pictures will make the sites Flickr feed (and they will rotate on the homepage) called Featured Members.

    Heck, we even have tshirts, click on the Stickers and Stuff page.

    There may be some bugs, but I think you guys will like it.

    It isn't Make or Model specific so you don't have to have a own a certain model to be a member. You just have to love cars and the culture behind it.


    I proudly present www.culturegarage.com an intersection of cars and culture



    Join and start sharing your stories!

    Once I get a mod's ok here, I will link from my site to mnsubaru.com

    The layout was done by another 9-2x guy in SanFran. Some of the logo design was done by a guy in Denver. And I write all the commentary.

    Looks like a few of you guys have joined. I am hoping to cover a build or something on the main page featuring a local guy.

    Who is the hot **** now? When I was more active it was Dream, but I heard he sold his car.

    I'll get you a banner asap. I have one, but I don't remember where it is on the harddrive right now.

    I'm planning on updating my site a bit, so for the time being I'll edit that banner to fit the link guidelines. I'll use that banner in full size when I get the new site finished.

    I don't see any problem with adding a link to mnsubaru from your site.

    The site does look very nice too, good job.
