Australian International Tornado Association

Some suggestions for the AITA web site.

1. Links to videos and a Gallery
2. Hints on the format of the username. Is it your actual name, your email address, your Silver Card No, a string assigned by AITA, or some random string we chose years ago?  Any username is fine as long as you enter you're real First Name and Surname so we know who you are.  It helps the Association keep track of it's online members.
3. On the Lost password/Username pages put some advice as to what to do if the email address has changed as well. The email I used for this is now gone. What do I do?  If you email the This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it I can reset your email address, username & password.
4. On the Ads pages put the age of the ad (when posted). If you are about to respond to something you don't want to waste time on something that is a year old. I presume you have an auto archive for ads older than say 3 months? The site should say that!  Adverts automatically unpublish themselves after 3 months so no advert is more than 3 months old.The Advertisement created date and updated date have now been included in each listing.
   
5. It might be useful for people to put their location on ads. Often the tyranny of distance makes the sale impractical. Can you prompt for that?  Can be added to Place an Advert form.  I'll put this on the 'To Do List'.
6. Can people put a picture with the ad?  Only if you send the pictures via email.  I am planning to change the process so that any aita registered online member can post their own advert just like you can post website feedback like this.  However there are a few issues with this process, namely spammers who post rubbish or melicious articles just by registering on the website.  It is difficult to police if you want an automatic posting.
   
7. Can you turn up the brightness of the pics on the header. They are almost invisible on my work PC.  DONE.  Now Blue.
8. Links to web pages; Marstrom, Windrush, UKITA, NZITA, USITA...  I'll put this on the 'To Do List'.
