There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Teddy & I would like to say Welcome to the SpyderHood, Brian
'Signatures' contain information that you want to include at the bottom of all your posts. This might include pictures, links to your site(s), quotes, etc.
What are avatars?
Avatars are small images that people use to identify or distinguish themselves to other forum members. In some cases the administrator will not allow avatars or only allow them for specific members. The administrator can also provide some stock avatars people can use, or they can allow members to upload their own custom avatars from their own computers. These avatars will be displayed as part of the user info in posts, as well as in the public profile.
What are profile pictures?
Profile Pictures are photos members can upload that will display in their public member profile. This option may or may not be enabled by the administrator.
How do I set signatures, avatars and profile pictures?
You can set and change your signature, avatar and profile picture in the User Control Panel (providing the administrator has made these options available).
For signatures, click on 'Edit Signature' under the 'Settings and Options' area of the navigation bar within the User CP.
To select an existing or upload a new avatar, click on 'Edit Avatar'.
To upload a profile picture, click on 'Edit Profile Picture' in the 'Your Profile' section.

Here's a link to a thread full of good info for Newer Spyder Owners,

Also, to better help ALL of US to help YOU,
you may want to take a little time to update your profile by adding a SIGNITURE LINE
(kinda like ours) to it, listing the Year, Model, SM5 or SE5, Miliage & Any Mods that you've done to your Spyder. This way, when you post a question, we'll have much of the needed basic information which will help us narrow down results that you may be seeking, and this way, you won't have to retype it each time you post a question
Mind you, its not required, just helpful. Here's a General Q&A about it.

And last but not least, to answer your question.
We've found that on our 2011 RT-S its usually easiest to use something like an ATV jack which has a flat raising surface and go in from the right side (if you were sitting on it) of the Spyder and angle it just behind the brake pedal. Make sure you don't raise the front under the FRUNK (front trunk) as it is all plastic & will readily break off.
Not sure if this diagram will help, but this is the Frame Schematic for a 2011 RT-S SE5 & you want to lift the Spyder by the FRAME.

BRP says to NOT use the rear shock mount as a jacking point as Lamont shows in the last picture in the link. Use the rear of the frame instead.

Where did you get those ramps? I have been looking for a set, the auto ones are a bit to tall for my liking?

I have them too on my RT. Only the cat shield on the right side poses a problem as the one on the left doesn't come down very far on the front half of it. So when jacking with my Pit Bull motorcycle lift, I will roll it until the end of the lift platform is just inside the shield on the right & forward of the shield on the left. With the Spyder, you can approach the lift from either side of the Spyder, so do whichever way is best for you.
