Nice one Gus, a warm welcome to the team

Jim did mention about the 18 hour days?

You'll be just fine, look forward to working with you.

Cheers,
Richard

Good luck. I would hate to be banned, but I have been banned from spots on 4 of 7 continents.

[note to self, subscribe to all posts made by tcarby...he's bound to make it 5 of 7 soon]

I finally gave up keeping up with Gus's ever-expanding library of DIY articles and repairs he thoroughly documents and updating the FAQ threads, so I begged Jim to bestow 'moderatorship' to Gus so he can do it himself. lol All kidding aside, Gus's wisdom and knowledge of both the XK and the S-types now will give him far more exposure with the members in those subsections that any of us could possibly accomplish. The hardest part of the job is when you have to ban the first (non-spamming) member for foul play. The most fun is catching those spammers using bogus locations (get a bookmark for an IP tracer in your browser) and mumbling gibberish to try and go unnoticed on the forums before dishing the spam links.

You will have to learn how to make those thumbnails big though Gus...I'll be watching! Congrats to yas!
