Default Auto enthusiast "Facebook" I designed for NGK

Hey guys, I've been working on this larger project for the past six months or so for NGK Sparkplugs. It's pretty much a facebook for enthusiasts of all vehicle types, with more focus on the actual vehicles rather than the people. The beta version of this section of the site just launched, so I wanted to post this up on here and see what you guys thought.

It's very early and there are a lot more features in the works right now such as video, etc....but it's nice to see it finally go up.

Social Networking part:

Main part:
http://artoffast.com

Main section I wasn't involved with as much, but it's still cool to check out. It was a fun blast from the past for me, since I haven't really had time to follow the modding scene for a couple years (hence my absence on here). Hope you guys dig it!

Are you talking about the popups within the community section? There are definitely some bugs. There's an error reporting link at the bottom since this is still in beta.

As for the programming, I didn't program it but the community was done with Cake I believe. Main site was in flash. Our development team in Atlanta did the programming...the design work was done in my office here in pitt, and handed off to them so I'm not sure.
