Reliability in our COTM guru'* has been spotty at best. And each time it falls into the gutter, I've had to pick it up. I can no longer do that.

Based on the fact that it takes quite some time to notice it'* missing, I find it hard to believe there'* that much interest in it.

Unless someone ULTRA reliable steps forward with the right skills, abilities, energy, and server space (it will not be hosted on our site server), it'* probably not going to happen unless you start prodding the person currently responsible for it.

If this would work and I could get a sticky in "Your Ride" I'll do it.

You must have HTML skills, image modifying skills, hosting, have Hans' permission, take on hosting the entire archive to date from Hans (it'* been passed on countless times) and other technicalities.

It'* not a pushover job.

image modifying skills -- PhotoShop Baby
Hosting -- I'll talk to Hans as per what he uses

You obviously didn't fully read my post above. I didn't say nominations or volunteers were being called for.

The responsibility for COTM is alreay assigned. You go to him.

Quick Reply: No more COTM??
