Is it just me or am I seeing a lot more topics for AutoModeler lately? I checked our Google Analytics and we have has 140% growth over the same 30 day period from last year. That's encouraging.
Some of you have probably noted the changes to the sites layout and header. It's been brought up to speed with our other sites. If you want to browse to a different site now you just need to click on the "Browse Sites" link under the KitMaker logo (upper left).
This would also be a great time to mention that we are still in need of permanent staff for AutoModeler. James Bella has been doing what he can (time wise) and we appreciate all his extra efforts. That said having dedicated editors and news writers would do a lot to enhance the site with additional content and info. If you are interested in making this the best scale modeling site for cars and trucks, just let me know.
Cheers,
Jim

Actually Jim, I'm the real mastermind behind the scenes. James is a Chevy man and should not be trusted in any way.
Just kiddin' James. Since Mr. B has started working on Auto Modeler things have really started jumping.

Zinging ?? What is ZINGING ?? I would rather call it polite conversation and constructive research into forthcoming builds.
Hermon my good man, wouldn't you agree ??

Looks great Jim, glad to see AutoModeler with the new look...especially happy to see the AM logo instead of the AS one in the reviews
Yup, great place to just chill with a bunch of great people.
As far as being a staff member,(no Hermon, if you were a staff member you still can't rename it DodgeModeler ) this site isn't really very time consuming, especially if there were a couple of guys handling it. Any questions regarding this, just ask.
