Yes you can.

Yes.
Let's face it, after a long day, sometimes all you want to do is flop down on the couch, flip on the TV, and chow down on an easy-to-eat dinner.

you can edit the text but not the title. You can ask a mod to help you with that.

R there bigger donations to have different member status. Like centurion and others? Thanks, Crue
Some of the titles under your name are simply how many posts.. for example, over 100 posts makes you a centurion member..GAry

No but you have to have 20 posts to buy in the new for sale section.

Re: Be a "Pro Member" to use For Sale/Swap Meet areas & Support the Site
First i wanna say BIG UPS to GAry for the museum & the Admins/Mods who maintain it!
I'm just an average Joe & it doesn't happen often but as a paid member, i feel i should not have to deal with ads playing their lil video commercials at the bottom of some pages. I understand that helps to support the museum, but if i'm not mistaken i remember other non-BMX sites mentioning no ads for paid members, so i believe it can be fixed. Thanks

You can edit the title with in the first 5 minutes then you have to ask a mod to change it after that.

Re: Be a "Pro Member" to use For Sale/Swap Meet areas & Support the Site
My first yearly-renewal is coming up in November i believe. I wanted to propose a suggestion that first-time renewals be at a lower price? Say $15? That would be cool & entice members to renew. Then second renewals go back up to the usual $20 
GAry, please consider. Thank you!

Re: Be a "Pro Member" to use For Sale/Swap Meet areas & Support the Site
If I became a pro member I get to sell bike stuff, I get that, that's awesome. Lets say the bike is leaning up against a car that's for sale also, can I sell the car through the museum? How about household items and nick knacks non BMX related?

I was somewhat joking, but I did not know that. Thank you. I did see a "waterpipe" made out of on old fork up on the for sale post, so I figured there had to be some flexibility. Ive been on this site for so long I should join. For many years I used it just for reference purposes, posting some of my bikes, but lately I like to get on the forums. Ill make it a point to join this week.
