JZRIV Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 After 70 plus hours, Randall Crain completed the review of nearly 1000 photos received from various sources and selected, sorted, arranged, rearranged, edited, and titled each one. They are now active for viewing on the ROA Gallery accessible from the ROA website. The photo gallery is open to public. https://www.rivowners.org/ Enjoy! Huge thanks to Randall for his effort on what is a very daunting task! 👍 ☮️ 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Big THANKS to Randall. If you were there you know what an effort Randall put forth in getting the show field organized. Something he’s done for many years. Now this. 👏👏👏👏👏 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) I went to the ROA website and I can't find any photo gallery for this year's meet...... What do I click on? When I click on international meets the newest one is Kalamazoo last year. Edited July 10 by Seafoam65 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZRIV Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 Winston The link looks like this on front website page. It still says "new" but its been around for several years. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Balzer Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Seafoam65 - I'm with you. Can't find the Photo Gallery, either. Nothing personal against the 2 members who posted links in an effort to help, but: The first link is to the Riv Owners Home Page -- the Photo Gallery is nowhere to be seen. I have extensively searched the Riv Owners Home Page trying many different links and still can't get there. The second link is a photo of the Photo Gallery - how ironic 🤪 Can someone kindly and simply just post a link to the Photo Gallery that actually goes to the Photo Gallery. Or a clear sequence of steps to get there Oddly, some members of this forum were concerned about making the Photo Gallery available to the public. From my position, that is not a concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZRIV Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 Didn't think it could be much simpler. Nothing personal. Here is a direct link for you https://www.rivowners.org/Gallery/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gungeey Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 In picture 33 there's a Silver 63, if anyone has knowledge of the owners name I would appreciate if they could PM it. Would like to like to speak with them. Thanks Steve Mully ROA 9236 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Balzer Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) Nothing personal at all, JZ However, Houston - we have a problem. This is what I get at Rivowners.com: Hmmm . . . apparently I get a different/older homepage screen than you do - without "Photo Gallery" Edited July 10 by Craig Balzer (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) Ditto Jason........no matter how I google search the Riviera Owners Association, I get the home page on my screen that does not have the Photo Gallery Box. Please advise us how you search for the home page to get the updated page. Edited July 10 by Seafoam65 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmTee Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 What browser are you using? I see it with Firefox v128.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I don't know what browser I am using......I just type in Riviera Owner's Association on my Google search engine and what comes up is the old home page with no Photo Gallery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTX5467 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 (edited) When I clicked on the @JZRIV link above, it goes direct to the first of about 14 pages of thumbnail pictures. Browser is current Windows. No problems at all. Once on that page, then click on the Lexington KY 2024 icon in the upper left of the gallery. THANKS to all who made the new gallery happen! Photographers, photographer administration, and the owners who drove their cars to the meet!

Seafoam65 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 (edited) I clicked on Jason's link and looked at the pictures, but I would still like to know how to bring up the ROA home page that has the photo galleries box. Also, I still don't have the personal message icon at the top of the screen on this site.... It vanished about 3 months ago after being there for years and I haven't seen it since.

Craig and Winston - Yes very bizarre the Gallery link doesn't show up. That's computers and software for ya. I tried 3 different browsers, Google, Microsoft Edge and Safari on different pcs and phone and it comes up with all. Good this came to light as if this is happening to you, it's happening to others as well. 😬 I will alert Ray to the problem and he'll notify the webmaster and hopefully a cause can be identified. I'll include the snapshot you posted Craig so they can see you are in fact at rivowners.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHinson Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I also don't see the Photo Gallery when I go to the website. I am running a Windows 11 machine and using Google Chrome browser in case that helps identify the issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTX5467 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I just tried "a consumer test" by going into Google, putting "Buick Riviera club" in the search window. Search results were the ROA website, first. Clicked on that and the front page came up, with the "Gallery" "Click Here" items. Clicked on "Click Here" and the photo page appeared. On my 8 month old HP "Walmart" laptop with whatever version of Windows Edge it has, using an AT&T WiFi hotspot for CompuServe/AOL Internet access on the western edge of DFW (where "phone line Internet" is not available). Just my experiences, NTX5467 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Balzer Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Appears we have unearthed an minor issue. To continue with the individual data collection, I use Windows 10 and my browser of choice is Google chrome (don't know what version). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray_Knott Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Do not go to the ROA page by a Google search, Type www.rivowners.org directly. For some reason when you do a search the results can be different 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Balzer Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Ray I tried to copy/paste www.rivowners.org in the search BAR (not Chrome) - NO JOY I tried to type "www.rivowners.org" in the search BAR (not Chrome) - NO JOY Both techniques have the same non-photo Gallery result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Ditto......when I enter www.rivowners.org in the search bar I get the home page that does not have the photo gallery box, but when I enter www.rivowners.org in the search bar if I scan further down the results on the page there is an entry that says www.rivowners.org.Gallery and when I click on that the photo gallery page comes up, so it looks like I can get to the photo gallery that way, but I have yet to ever see a home page with the photo gallery box on it. I'm using Windows 10 and the Google search engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I just tried the Bing search engine and got the same result when typing in www.rivowners.org..... I got the home page without the photo gallery box, but with a Bing search I don't get a result further down that says www.rivowners.org.Gallery.

SwedeDownUnderR63 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 (edited) I don’t know what is going wrong with your browsers. On my iPad with the latest iOS and apps I have successfully used Edge, Firefox, Chrome and the default browser to go to www.rivowners.org website and the link to the photos is there. There must be a miss match between the version of the browsers and the SW running the site and/or an old page is being cached in one way or another Edited July 11 by SwedeDownUnderR63 (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dship Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I'm using Windows 11 with MS Edge and I have no problem accessing the gallery...it's on the main ROA page on my PC. It's also available on my iPhone 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam65 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Gentlemen......I finally figured out the problem! My Ad blocker was seeing the photo box as an ad and was blocking it. I turned off my ad blocker for the ROA home page and now I can see the black box ! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
