    Is there a way to find someone's system showcase from teh forums, aside from just going to the showcase and SEARCHING for it?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I am unable to load pics, I get this error.
    File format image/jpeg invalid! You can only upload JPEGs!

    All my pics are jpeg's and well under the 2mb limit.

    I had this problem using Firefox, because Firefox gave them (JPEGs) a slightly different tag than IE.

    Try it with IE (I know, it hurts).

    That would actually be pretty cool if he could make it work. For peole like myself who have that link in their sig, it's easy enough - but for most people, well this would be a neat feature.

    Whether using Firefox or IE, just do a CTRL + F and type the name of the person's showcase you're looking for. It'll block highlight the persons name so you don't have to squint through everyone elses names.

    Justin....

    One thing I noticed is that while I have my forum settings to full screen (no white bars on sides), the showcase page displays as if my setting was Polk Default.

    Also, i don't see a link for the showcase anywhere other than in this thread, so am I missing where else to click on it without coming directly to this thread?

    I'm actually working on a "portal page" that will include news and announcements, links to "club polk" specific items, and also links to the forums as well as most recent posting on that main page.

    All in the works! :)

    Could you put like an edit and add button... instead of going through the instructions page to find it... just a simple thing - but would make it a bit easier to do things...

    Dosnt really matter, my showcase is in-vis-da-ble

    I thought that you were asking how to search when in the showcase itself.....

    It would be nice to have a shortcut added to the dropdown menu you get when you click on someone's name within a thread (like PM this member, etc.) which may be what you were asking.......

    That's exactly what I wanted.

    Hello Justin.
    I noticed on the showcase that your FX speakers are mounted low. How do your FX speakers sound mounted that low in your movie area? I thought about lowering mine about a foot. What do you think?

    They sound great! Although, I just mounted them so we'll see. I lowered the gain about 3dB on the receiver because they are so low/close to the listening area, but so far so good.

    Thanks for the response. I may give it a shot when I paint my HT room.
