Update Your Equipment details!

Post by Grievous »

Seems like the equipment database is stuck at 5 entries! Will appreciate if everyone update their equipment at the Equipment Database topic!

Thanks,
Charlie

Hi,

I suggest that a table be created for equipment.
Suppose that 50 members add one topic each with the description of their equipment, it will become difficult to consult.
What do you think ?

Cheers

that would certainly be neater.. We could also use an approach similar to photo.net where the members can update their equipment in their profile management page.. members can then update their equipment details together with their profiles.

But I would prefer a table based approach..

Iceangel did post his bino but then shortly after deleted his entry away..

anyway, the format should look like the yahoogroups database equipment list...there are 46 entries there! so quite alot of people have not updated theirs here.

Hm... if you like i can offer my programming experience too :)

Talking about that, I think since this is php script there's one way to do it, very fast and easy. On our profile we add a line "Scope:______" like we do "Location: _____", and that's our database, no need for a special table. And every time we see the person talk we can see his details of the scope!
