whats your opinion about this new hypography?

[Tim_Lou]

i think its pretty nice.

but the forums look too bright!.... it hurts my eyes! (probably i use my computer for too long)....lol.

I like it, apart from im no longer a wacky, goofy faced guy anymore! Not happy Tormod!

On a more serious note, can you stop the site wanting cookies to login and post? I find sites very frustrating that require this (i keep my preferences on high).

[Tormod]

Sorry about the icons...the developer changed them. I though everyone were supposed to keep the old ones but it seems not!

Oh well, we win some, we lose some.

And no, I can't stop the site wanting cookies. We had a lot of incidents with anonymous posters in the past and the only way to make sure people are who they claim to be is to use cookies...

But I won't sell your cookies to someone, I promise.

See? Even I look like a healthy young man now. Wonder what Freethinker will look like now...

Yes, nice look there Tormod, you lost a good 20 years! Strange thing was I had the same avitar as before. But you had mentioned that we could uplad our own. So I will explain mine. One of the poeple are am most often told I look like is Jack Nickolson . ("here's Johnny...!") I have actually been stopped while walking in downtown Chicago by some people that wanted to make sure. (though he has some years on me). So I did a search on Google for images with his name and found this one. While I did relate to my old one, kinda looks like the biker in me, I don't have a beard or wear a hat.

Anyway, thanks again for all your work Tormod. I like the easy list of Forums I have posted to in order to keep up. I did not find that before.

This "Senior Member" shits gotta stop though! lol

How many posts till I am a retired member?

[Freethinker]

You mention being able to retrive messages sent during the transition. I have one, one I took a while on, in Science good or bad that I don;t see here, how do i get it back?

I think we have to copy and paste from the old forum.

Yes, sundog is right.

There used to be a button called "Today" which nobody knew what was for. Now they renamed it "My forums" which is more appropriate - good for keeping up with your own posts.

Also notice that you can click on the "star" icon on topic pages - then the thread can be saved as a favorite in the side menu for easy access (if you have turned the side menu on in the profile).

Freethinker - your new avatar is scary. Looks like it's taken right out of "Shining".

The "user titles" function has changed and the developer has acknowledged that it is a bug. I am now a "Star Member", weeeeee. I'll make some quick fixes but I guess when they correct the bug I'll have to upgrade again... I'll look at this when I feel safe that everything is working smoothly - it's been one hell of a ride with endless hours spent on bugfixing.

Hah...for some reason SOME members retain their old "titles", while some don't. So FT, seems like you'll be a senior member for a while.
