Is it possible to add these features to IMCDB. It would enhance the feedback to users and add very much to the fun of it all.
1. A notification when somebody makes a comment on a car that oneself has made comments on/that one has added/that one has subscribed to.
2. To be able to browse the images with more ease. For instance, you put in a search for an Audi 100 and then when getting 900 hits you would be able to click on any one picture and then, from that image-page, you would click on a NEXT button to get to the next car in the search. This instead of endlessly being forced to jump back and forth.
This I think would improve IMCDB greatly and without a doubt attract many more nerds to our beloved site.

I've the same wishes. And, as written sometimes ago, I would very welcome a private-message-possibility.
Yes, it's possible here in the forum, but here are not as much members active than in the database.

Relatively high-priority on my to-do list:
- private messages
- ability to mark vehicles/movie pages to follow, to easily see when there is a new comment made on them
About browsing, indeed this should be improved, it is also planned. Probably through a split view showing one row of thumbnails for movie/model vertically and the vehicle detail on the remaining part of the page.
Note that currently you can use tabbed browsing for a little easier browsing (click with mouse wheel to open in a new tab) to prevent from having to go back each time.

So about when can we except to see a notification function on the site? Are we talking, days, weeks, months or years?
27/09/2010 @ 23:46:25: antp: Features on IMCDB I really wish for - Notifications and Simplified Browsing
not days
I hope not years either
depends when I have free time for that...

I would suggest a future enhancement of the car highlighter box. For now, it’s a fixed standard length and width, which does not always fit the size of the vehicle being highlighted in the capture.
It would be nice to click on the capture and drag the highlighter box, to custom fit it's size to the vehicle being highlighted.

Yes, but I wanted to so something quickly and very basic when I made it
I was also afraid that allowing to draw a small box would encourage people to put too-background vehicles.
But some day I may replace that by something like what is on Flickr, where you can comment an area of the picture.

Do you know what I'd like to see here? The abiltiy to search for vehicles
made for other countries. When I posted this
Fiat 600 from "The World of Henry Orient" DynaMike mentioned that this was the second Fiat 600 made for the USA on this site. I'm having trouble finding the first, and any others that have been posted since then. All other Fiat 600's I have no problem finding, though.

Indeed, I added "origin" to the search fields, I do not know why I did not include "made in" and "made for" at the same time...

Here's a wish:
- Ability to assign multiple episode numbers to a vehicle

I agree... and... my wish its add the flag of the Mercosur. I see the Gaucho, and its developed by Argentina and Brazil. For example

For the episodes, it is the episode of the pic, so either put a "+" after the episode number to indicate that it appears in others, or use comments to mention that it appears in multiple episodes (possibly listing them, as I often do by including extra pictures).
What would it add if the episodes were directly mentioned in vehicle info? As currently the episode is there mostly to "force" people to mention it, and also to be able to sort by episode number.
