Welcome to the NEW HOMEPAGE!

Here you can talk about the joy owning a Volvo 480 brings. Non-technical discussions take place here, like what is the difference between an ES and a S version.

Good morning and merry xmas to you all. I regret to say however, that I have not received an email and/or a shiny personal password - in fact I've only ever received one email from the club and that was when I first found it a long time ago <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Merry Christmas.<br><br>I got a news letter last night. Read it here.<br><br>Dear Martin Holmes,<br><br>After having spent weeks behind my computer, having had sleepless nights thinking things over and having neglected my girlfriend a little, I am proud to tell you that the Volvo 480 club EUROPE has a NEW homepage!<br><br>What has changed?<br>First of all the member administration has been automated. Since the beginning of this club the memberlist was no more than a plain HTML file with a large table which was edited by hand. This is nice when you have up to 100 members, but beyond that it becomes impossible to manage...<br>Adding new members became a painfull time-consuming process and a few weeks ago I started working on the design for the database which now contains all details.<br><br>Now that the entire Volvo 480 Family is in a database it is possible to hand out personal passwords by which you can log in. The possibilities are countless! Some of you may never have had the common login-details up to now. With this e-mail I want to give you all your personal password. Here's how to log in:<br>USERNAME: ????<br>PASSWORD: ???????<br><br>You are from now able to edit your car- and personal details without me having to intervene. You can remove cars you no longer own, add new cars and the changes will be visible on the memberlist immediately! If you no longer own a Volvo 480, please log in on the site, go to 'My Details' and unregister yourself.<br><br>The Volvo 480 club EUROPE wishes all its members a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!<br><br>Yours sincerely,<br><br>Daniël Wilten<br>Volvo 480 club EUROPE<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.volvo-480-europe.org/">www.v ... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

Hi Dragonlord,<br><br>no worries, everyone who hasn't (strangely) received the newsletter at the e-mail address by which he's registered can get it by entering his e-mail address in the box at the bottom of the Contact area on the homepage. Good luck! <p><I>Cya,</I><BR> <BR>Daniël Wilten</B><BR><B>Volvo 480 ES Dark Green Metallic, 1996<BR>Volvo 480 ES Graphite Grey Metallic, 1987<BR></B><IMG SRC="http://www.volvo-480-europe.org/images/smallbanner.jpg" alt='Welcome to the Volvo 480 club EUROPE'></p><i></i>

Daniel,<br><br>Can you tell me whether you hold a different set of email,addresses for registration than is used for EZBoard? I have entered my current email address as you instructed into the box on the contact page and I still haven't had my info through. This leads me to believe you have a different email address on record from me, which is no longer valid (I used to use a work address, but these all changed recently so the old variant no longer works). Please could you comment on this, and if necessary, please alter my record to show my correct personal email address (shown in my exboard profile) - this one should never change <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> thanks.

Yes, I use a different e-mail address than on EZBoard. We know it may not be the most elegant way, but the e-mail address you provide with EZBoard is not used in the club's Database. I will get back to you, Dragonlord, personally through e-mail! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>
