Nice improvement, especially being able to read chronologically from the top down!  Thanks!  Good looking format, classy like our cars.  AND MUCH EASIER TO ATTACH PICS!!!  Great improvement.  Avatars too, wowee!  S600 technology on the 113 board.

Well, I screwed up today... my backup script was not perfect yet and if you uploaded an avatar, I'm afraid you'll need to do it again. Also for those pictures that were uploaded...

Sorry!

i like the look, too.  the only thing i don't like is that now messages appear in date order, whereas before, messages appeared in reverse date order, mkaing it was easier to read the most recent postings.


if anything can be done about that, i'd vote for it  ::)

If you'd like to change the order in which messages appear (e.g. latest post first) go to Profile (button at the top), Look and Layout preferences (link on the left) and then select "Show most recent posts at the top".

The new site looks great and some day I will figure out some of the new features. A feature which I have been looking for does not seem to be here. I have met a number of members in my travels but, it is difficult to find a member by city, state or country. Does this capability now exist or is there a plan to add it in the future?
Thanks,
Ted

For privacy purposes this feature does not exist. We only have full address details for full members anyway, not for forum members. For members with a genuine need I can always send a mail to a particular audience on your behalf, allowing members to contact you if they like to do so.

Alternatively, do as many people do... post a request in the forum.
