That will turn off auto-subscribe; so once you do that, and you remove the subscriptions you don't want; you will only get emails of those you are subscribed to.

Okay! Awesome Admin! Thanks again Ops Manager and admin!!!

they are doing a great job (far from how the liberals are doing nationwide led by their leader Obama), fixing what they can, specifically the email notice. that was a critical missing link w/ communication on the forum & should lead to more activity!

There are so many features i really like, even the signature thingy (sleep deprived; it messed w/ our head). They also re did the collection page so it loads faster (that was a getting old, but i had no idea it was fixable). My inner child is coming out because it's so fun to come the the forum!

curious as the why the online users numbers are never correct. Is it a missing / broken feature from the company? Online Users

I have a BlueBox 'Britsh' titled L1011 tristar on my want list. I keep getting notification that it's available on ebay but it isn't. I've checked other countries ebay sites but definitely not there. I did find it for trade and contacted the person but I wasn't notified of a reply. DAC always email me with notification of a new private message. I am still looking for this model.

[Ops Manager]

NZCH747 - what is the dima ID of the model you are looking for?

[NZCH747]

G'day OPs Manager, cheers for your reply. The ID number is 13230 .
The link to the model is :

As of right now it says that model is not available on ebay, can you email me at info@diecastmodelaircraft.com if your next email says it is avail on ebay?

[NZCH747]

Yep I will do. I actually just missed a notification yesterday but I seem to get them every3 weeks or so.

EDIT: Actually, this belongs in the "Your thoughts on DiMa…." thread. Can it be moved, please?

A few thoughts about new features...

- In a collection, show all models on a single page as an option or offer to export. Convenient for offline access. Understood that it may take a while to load.
- Make the collection list more compact (optionally?). The design looks nice, but a lot of real estate is used, eg. to display model values and gain/loss, acquisition details, or the "compare" button. Maybe this can be fine-tuned in preferences.
- In the form to add a new model, offer a clickable calendar, or at least a hint re. format (MM/DD/YYYY).
- In the automated model finder alert, exclude "available for pre-order" as an event. Typically, models become available for pre-order very shortly after announcement. Actual availability however may take much longer, so that's much more interesting as an alert. Other users' mileage may vary.

1. Topic moved
2. Noted for future
3. a compact/classic view is on the to-do list
4. Clickable calendar, good idea, will work on this
5. Noted on the pre-order, that is something we'll have to figure out, but I understand where you are coming from

I'm adding these notes to our internal to-do and discussion forum list.

I'm posting my thoughts here for discussion. I would have thought my point about fine-tuning the design via preferences expressed my concern for individual needs, but I'm happy to re-iterate, clarify.
