    Roth Potter reacted to HossC in HazzardNet Wiki   
    My vote is for the MediaWiki option. I think that making the wiki a separate resource would work better (hazzardnet.com/wiki or similar). If you can't make the single sign-on work, we can always use the same username and password that we have on the forum.
     
    Personally, I'm not that bothered if it looks like the rest of the site - most wiki-style sites I read just look like Wikipedia, but HazzardNet customizations are very welcome.
     
    It would probably be best to initially restrict editing access to Veterans, at least until the templates and main pages are in place. After that, it could be opened up.
     
    We'll have to discuss the rough form of the pages when the great opening gets nearer. For the episode pages, I'd suggest: Brief plot (a couple of lines), Detailed plot (a couple of paragraphs), Cast/Crew, Trivia, Goofs, Quotes and Locations. Did I miss anything? We can have a page for each actor and character that requires one, and pages for important places like the Boar's Nest, Duke Farm etc.

    Thats the song California Gurls.
    Basically she talks about daisy Dukes as the shorts. Shorts just wouldn't sound right in the song, and everyone knows Daisy Dukes!
    "California gurls, we're unforgettable. Shorts, bikinis on top. Sun-kissed skin, so hot, we'll melt your popsicle. Oh oh oh oh."
    It just doesn't sound right that way.

    Funny you should mention that... I have tinkered around with MediaWiki (what Wikipedia runs on) on the site and may still have it installed in a directory somewhere. If not, I can always reinstall. If you guys are interested in adding some content to the site and sprucing it up a bit, I'll look into getting a wiki ready and 1) seeing if I can tie it into your current logins or 2) if not, getting some sort of secure login so we can make sure the wiki isn't spammed. Perhaps we should move over all the content about the episodes, trivia, etc, from the WordPress install to the wiki and just keep the blog at the root of the site for updates and current events.
    Let me know what you guys think.

    Good question. I'm sure it's amazing 'cause everything he does is breathtaking but we'd sure like to see it.

    ...I'm new here so hello everyone!
     
    Right, a quick introduction:
    The first time I came across the Dukes of Hazzard was in a cardboard box of old die-cast cars. Not the most interesting but please bear with me!
    I was gifted them from a cousin who thought he had 'outgrown' all the toy cars. (What a silly boy, one does not 'outgrow' toy cars!) I accepted them gladly and after a quick rummage, I discovered only two cars I couldn't place so promptly went to ask my Dad.
    Well, it just so happened that one of those cars was an orange Dodge Charger and I think you can probably fill in the rest! I became a Dukes of Hazzard fan at the age of 13 and have held the Dukes in fond regard ever since.
    I was browsing the internet and stumbled across this website again and was amazed to find I'd never registered before - how remiss of me! Of course, this is me rectifying that glaring error on my behalf!
     
    To summarise:
    Hello everyone! I probably ramble on too much but am looking forward to chatting to like-minded Dukes fans!
    (It's a good thing I don't actually own a CB radio - you'd never get a word in edgeways!)

    I just got gone watching "The Great Santa Claus Chase" and will watch the Dukes cartoon Christmas show when my grandkids come over tomorrow. I hope everybody has a very merry Christmas and as Boss says at the end of the episode "And God bless us every one."

    No, he owns a garage and is a top notch mechanic, maybe even as good as Cooter...LOL
    This is pretty amazing. I was walking around our local fair Friday night and saw a guy with an 01 hat on. I was wearing my 01 hat (bought at Ray's stunt show) and my HazzardNet shirt (bought here)  I recognized this guy as someone I once knew so struck up a conversation with him. Come to find out, he's the guy who owns the property where this pond jump will (hopefully) take place and it's the next dirt road over from me!!!

    I'd say The Ghost of General Lee. I think it's the only one which made me cry the first time I watched it. I'm not really sure what you mean by dark because I don't remember anything dark on the Dukes.

    I'm treating these buildings as "real", so ice had to come up with some logical and fun ideas for the rear.   However I'm not doing interiors like the garage.

    Over the years i have found many rare pictures of the dukes of Hazzard on the internet and saved them on my local hard drive. Because i couldn't find a thread generally about these i thought i'd start my own. Unfortunately for many of these pictures I can't find the source of so some might be from this Forum. If some were from this forum i am sorry for re-posting them.
    If i can find the source of a picture I post I'll post the link to the source.
    Anyway, here are some of the pictures.

    Roth Potter got a reaction from Hobie Hartkins in The competent Rosco from Season 1.   
    Pain Trane, I guess the Polara and Monaco's we're destroyed during she show and crushed or send to a junkyard. I wouldn't be surprised if it is/was on the same junkyard as where they found Lee 1. I could be wrong and might have dreamed it but I remember something about a Police 1 or 2 sticker found on a dashboard of a wreck. It could have been the same junkyard.

    The Dukes with a laughing track? This isn't all and out Comedy like Mr. Bean where it adds to story. Dukes was classed as a comedy but personally see it as somethign else with added comedy.

    Roth Potter reacted to HossC in "Farewell, Hazzard" conceived as a possible finale to the show?   
    I don't remember how the episodes were originally shown, but, according to IMDb, it looks 'Carnival of Thrills' and '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' were screened back-to-back, but the two parts of 'Undercover Dukes' were shown a week apart. Now that we have DVDs, it doesn't make much difference as there's no waiting. The two-parters also let us have slightly deeper storylines.

    Factory correct? What are you talking about? General Lee is not made in a factory. So much is added like the pushbar, new wheels, rollbar.
