I moved all the crap to the left side only - does that work better for you guys? (Even tho I got used to the 2 columns already :p )



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Can we get our stars back?

Or, possibly, can we finally have custom colored titles like "Chairmang" in pink?

My biggest problem is something small, insignificant, and simple.

I CAN'T POST.

Strange, since this is the ONLY message board that doesn't like my settings. I've turned off my firewall too, and it doesn't help. WTF?

Ah, I think I figured it out. For some reason, Symantec's Personal ID Protection feature dislikes the BB, I had to turn it off. I'll try adding it to the list of trusted sites and turning it back on.

Sorry for the trouble...never had that happen before...

After trying to get on a few times, it wouldn't work, and then it did. It was like getting a little present.

Where can I buy the puppy prozac? I'm getting a little tired of the yellow and brown presents I get. Or how would you like to add a Golden Retriever puppy to your house?

Edit: I finally made the top page

Mig, I'm so proud of you for making top of the page!!

My dog had separation anxiety and used to tear the house apart, rip up anything she could, and leave us little presents every day, but only when we left the house. If we were home, she was very good. So, the vet put her on Clomicalm, and it worked! Thank goodness!!

Btw, JG, LOVE the new site (felt compelled to comment on it, since I was here).

Nah Sampson is doing good with the potty training. When we leave we put him in his cage or leave him in the backyard.

His name was going to be Cicci but I got out voted. His name fits him cuz by the time he's done growing I'm sure he'll be close to 100lbs.

Our dog Angel is only about 27 pounds, but she managed to tear her way out of 2 different cages. One we borrowed from friends, so Mr. Babe repaired it and returned it. Then we bought a new one from a guy who guaranteed that she wouldn't be able to break it because it was made for a rotweiller. She got out in two and a half hours. :rolleyes:

Well, I'll stop being a curmudgeon (temporarily) and say that I actually like some of the recent changes in the new board.

Having one column on the left is an improvement on the two-column design. Also, it appears that you've changed the maroon "bar" (header?) at the top of each post to a gray one - much easier to read.

We're getting there...

Now, for a truly troubling thing: Why are you no longer able to be Member #1? I take it as a given that many people here will say that you are now and will always be #1 with them, and I would agree, generally, with that assessment.

My point is that even if some of us may disagree from time to time, you should never be referred to as #2 - especially after reading the previous posts in this thread by Mig and SB.

It's a database thing. They used slot #1 for internal purposes. It's no big deal - that's the least of my problems... but thanks for being so supportive!

Not sure, I'd like to do it soon - but I'd also like to get a lot more people testing it out first, making posts, etc, to get used to how it works... :p

I noticed one bug, by the way - It seems the New Post Indicators aren't working on the main page for some reason. I thought I was going crazy -- maybe I am! -- but that's why the new board never looked like people were posting much...

I don't know about anybody else here, but I find myself going between the two board here, posting back and forth. Kind of fun, but hard to keep track of everyone.

Oh and Beth, are my eyes deceiving me or were you have a conversation with yourself on the shout board???
