Frustrated Software Developer

UltimateDrive3487 · 08-28-2012, 09:03 PM

So I am a professional software developer looking for aftermarket performance parts for my M3 (specifically an exhaust, rims, and a spoiler)

My current process is to read through all the forms and view the stickies but this is annoying as crap as I can't filter by car, color, performance parts etc.

Would a tool that allows people to upload pics of there car and just list basic stats and search from that be useful / does this exist?

Are you offering to develop/contribute such a tool? That would be nice of you

BTW - hopefully your programming skills are better than your spelling/grammar...

Is there a way to add "tags" to threads? That WOULD be helpful, but it also may exist.

I would be more then willing too. I'm just trying to figure out if a service like this exists. I am currently on page 28 of
http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=349201 trying to find a freaking spoiler...

I know about Cardomain but that is awful...

I was thinking about making the site real basic. You upload photos, and list what kind of car you have. Then you would probably post the URL back here to actually talk about it

That would be very helpful! Tag all the parts of your car, and basic stats!

yes you can. on the bottom of the thread you can add tags.

UltimateDrive3487 · 08-29-2012, 03:01 PM

so tags would be a large step forward but there still isn't a way for me to view only photos... The stickies are great but with people quoting previous messages and etc it gets extremely hard to view just pictures

Pictures, more than you could ever imagine, sorted by series, model & colour.

This would be a great tool.
