Is it possible to put the current number of people in the chat next to the IRC link on left side of screen? Or maybe posting a set time for meeting or discusions?

Ken,
I will look into that. I kind of doubt I can get the right code for that to work though as the IRC server is not mine. A good idea though.

I am planning on posting some kind of meeting schedule if there is an interest for that.

Heck yes to the meeting schedule! Maybe even theme meetings. Nothing like a good chat session to get the inspiration pumping (to only be lost when one goes to try things out alone!)

I'd like to participate in the meeting. Schedule it weekly in the evening (7-10 PM Eastern) sometime during this window in case we have East & West coast participants who can't get on too early or Eastcoasters being on too late.

Ok...sometimes I am a little slow.... I am getting the impression that a meeting schedule may be in order? hehe....

I will try to come up with a format that works.

Ken - the ribbon just designates a user as a moderator. I redid some of the ranks. Added a PFC and Master Sergeant and the moderator image.

If anyone is interested in moderating a particular board, to provide answers and help other users, etc. etc., let me know and I will evaluate your past posting history and qualifications. Right off the top of my head I would say Sabot and Kencelot qualify.

Friday nights are the busiest around here so I have designated Friday night, A.F.A.C. night (Armorama Friday Armor Club)! It's from 7pm to 10pm eastern standard time in the ARMOR chat room.

Hope you can all make it.

That sounds good to me. I'm kind of an "armor hacker". I build until it looks right. I don't count rivets, measure for scale height or get FS chips to match colors. (I've painted the real stuff before we started using carcinogenic paint and color matching is green, any; brown, any; and black, any)

I can help, but I am not an expert builder or expert on most types of armor. I do have the advantage of having a lot of real stuff though and having lived on the things for a good part of my life.

Friday night is all right by me. I'll be there. Actually it's my Wednesday night because of my work week. So long as it doesnt run too late.
I'm not an expert here either, but I do have a passion for modeling.
