    #3 is definitely what I named it. Palace of the Inquisition in Cartagena, I got it from the Colombia tourism site.

    #2 is from Jimmy I will check with him.

    I wasn't clear in my post. I meant the Colombian Chica section.

    I know everyone probably went straight to the Galleries but does the rest look good; Rules, About, Contact?

    In the first ISOC rule about child exploitation, etc, I would stress the fact that a child is anyone under the age of 18 yo.

    Different guys may have different ideas of what a child is, and the boundaries aren't always clear as LAC is diferent in diferent countries, states, etc, but for the purpose of covering your asses legally I think you should make very clear what the age limit is for pics and discussions in this forum: 18 yo.

    What needs to be done:
    1. Scoll bar for the galleries to allow more then 6 pics.
    2. Fix the Contact Us form, not working right now. (Not sure why)
    3. Modify the meta tags to keep kiddies out and search engines in!
    4. Do the thumbnails better, maybe crop the pictures rather then reducing them.
    5. Wait for final approval on some member's pictures.
    Check it out here:
    http://www.insearchofchicas.org/isoc.html

    Tested with IE6 & Firefox. If anyone can check Opera, Safari, and IE7 please post a response, Thanks.

    Update: Fixed the Contact Form, BUT PLEASE DO NOT TRY IT OUT unless you are testing an alternative browser listed above, and then please state so in the message. (It's currently set to send to my personal email account and I don't want 100's of messages!)
    Very Nice Great Job.

    The website is now LIVE!

    The plain old address of http://www.insearchofchicas.org now loads the page.

    The Galleries are all dynamic requiring just editing a file and so is the Latest News, no further Flash publishing required!

    PS. Also the Contact Us emails now go to Jimmy!

    Oooooops...DT The last pic in the DR photo gallery (pink walls, pool, ocean at sunset) is from "Eagle Beach" in Aruba. I tried to put in a label when I submitted it....sorry. Hell, maybe we can open up an Aruba section. I've got 11 years worth of pic's from there and loads & loads of Chica info.

    Thank you for all your hard work DT.
    The format and layout of the pages here is what makes it so easy to navigate and pleasureable to login every day.
    I am a member on another site(which I wont mention), but I swear Ive only logged in there maybe 1x / month cause their format just plain sucks. Its a chore to find something, and I just dont have the time.
    The content here on ISOC is also so much better, and you make that all possible by making it so easy to navigate ,post and track threads and info etc.
    So thanks . We really do appreciate it.

    Wait until the next revision which is in beta right now, there are two enhancements to make searching easier.

    "Tag Cloud" which will list the most popular/recent searches on the Advanced Search page.

    And Keywords which can be assigned to threads to make searches all that much easier and also they are clickable so if you read a rental car thread a keyword surely would be "rental car" so you could click it and then read other related threads.

    It looks good, so is the code php based? or html based? I'm always curious when I see a change in a webpage I like. Also the flash is just for the visuals right?

    There are links on the right side, ISOC Forums, ISOC Wiki, ISOC Amor, then you get into the Forums, etc.

    So big safari user... Things are flawless as far as I can tell. Two things, first is there a possibility of a "mobile friendly" URL, I can't be the only iphone freak out there and the mobile safari is great its still better with scaled down sites. A lot of the commercial sites do it, like Google, youtube, facebook, even jetBlue and fandango... I have even seen blogs jump on board. I really get a kick out of laying in bed with the wife and planning my next trip to DR on a handheld. Second thing is I just saved a lot of money by switching to Geico! ... Seriously.
