Yes -- a lot different -- but it will get better ---- it was a big task converting a cgi forum into a database php forum - thanks to our web guru Marin for perisiting with this until it was done.

In the next days/weeks I hope it will be refined -- so please consider this a rough cut beta stage.

hiya....hope you can eliminate that blue space (unless it's reserved for something) on the left side.......so if i center the page i don't have to keep scrolling to the right in windowed mode....sorry if this doesn't make sense as i'm not that computer litterate.....yahoo finally narrowed their main page so i can fit it in a window and have room for another...what a relief to me!.......

It's weird, very very different. It's going to take some getting used to from the old one!

Yeah .... it looks like the main site more but the whole layout is going to take a bit of getting used to.

Still I remember Yabb was giving a lot of problems so I guess this one will be better

Hi
Do you mean you've lost post count?


As much as possible feedback is appreciated - for instance I didn't realise users couldn't post withouty approval until this morning when I saw 'this post requires approval' . ..... No-one mentioned it ...

There are probably many other glitches that you guys are experiencing that I just don't know about -- so please LET ME KNOW!

(I know about the cropped images and some corrupted 'moved' posts -- and some other posts requiring edits.)

Okie Dokie,

Thank you Pete Sir. Thank you Simviation for the upgrades. :) I (like others) will take a little
time to get acclimated to the new surroundings. But it looks like its pretty user friendly so far.
Thank you for this most Excellent site! :)

I have ONE (annoying but not so important, just nagging before coffee time) glitch: the signatures are GONE.

I had my signature OK, when I decided a week ago to change it for a better one: then it sisappeared. No more :naughty: , kaput :naughty: , jodióse :naughty: ! :violin:
<<q Gracias

Pop over here, Jean, for a possible cure for your missing signature...>>> viewtopic.php?f=25&t=167113

Scroll down the thread.. ;) ...!

(Check your Profile Settings...which may have changed!)

Profile > Board Prefs > Edit Posting Defaults > Attach Signature By Default.. = ..YES!...(It may have been changed to NO!)
