The new system is far more advanced than what I had running on the former TriumphRat.Net. All Registered Members can start contributing now. Here are the key aspects:
  • Uploading a Product - Allows you to create a product and add pictures. You describe the product, but don't review or include your opinion of it.
  • Posting a Review - Is done after the product is created. You would give your rating, pros/cons, price, and a description of your opinions.
When a product is created, all TriumphRat.Net Members can post reviews on it. So if I take a picture of my gloves and upload it; I may put a positive review afterward - but another member could post an alternative review that would appear on the same product page below my own review.

BTW - if you're wondering what happened to the original Product Reviews. I cleaned out the riding gear and accessories, leaving primarily motorcycles, and posted them on a single long page here:

Another nice feature Shawn
I was going to post up a review on Blueant Interphone communicators but there is no existing category that it really fits into.
Perhaps a category for general electrical accessories - could include GPS, radar detectors, heated accessories, horns etc

I've added an additional category called Riding Items.

There was also a significant bug in the Reviews System, requiring me to close the reviews system for a while this evening while I resolved things. It's back up now.

A Review was sacrificed in the process. I've already sent an apology to the contributor and asked that it be re-uploaded.
