Location: Essexville, MI./Saginaw Bay. | I spent most of the day wondering why my (favorite Places) link to the board wasn't working. Finally typed in the site address and made my way back to the board and re-entered it into the favorites category. |

| One thing I would like to see changed under the "thread subjects" column. If possible, could you make the little icons that indicate "new posting" a little more different than the other icon. Right now, I have to look pretty hard to see if the little tab is orange or not. It will make it easier to quick scan for new posts.
Thanks |

I personally think your making the right move at the right time. This site is growing fast and Scott on WC is still getting flac from the membership for changing it's board. People become used to something and then it's extra tough when it changes. Better change now before you get to BIG. :D |

Location: Rhinelander | I am sure this won't be the last upgrade. Zach usually upgrades the board when it is a very large advantage to do so, but keeps the overall look and function very similar. Zach saw that this new version runs faster, is user friendly, and is easier on our servers. I bet that will happen again!
Nice work, Zach, I like the new board. |

| Guess Zach is doing MuskieFIrst right now. A couple things I have noticed. No "Back" button when you submit a post. Also, the who's in a chat room thingy on the view forums page is gone. I'm sure I will come up with a few more
In the mean time, here's a nice Erie eye for you all to look at. |

Location: Wind lake, Wi | Everything is working fine for me. You guys are doing an excellent job with the site, I'm sure it is alot of work. Now I just hope that the site dont get like some of the others with all the arguing and guys trashing others. That is why I very rarely visit other sites anymore. Everyone on here seems to get along and help out no matter what. I must say there are many class act guys/gals on here willing to give info and compliments. Thanks guys for your hard work. Later eyefever!!  |

Location: Fond du Lac, WI | I noticed 2 things right off the bat. One is that the forum page seems considerably wider, causing a person to have to scroll to see the right hand text in the posts. My display is set at 1024 X 768 and I never had this issue with the old appearance. Also, when I'm viewing a forum and you want to reply, I may have to login first (I don't always login right away). So when I log in it tells me I'm being redirected back to the current page, but instead it takes me back to the list of forums. I have to select the forum again and then find the post to open it to reply. The old way used to go back directly to the post I was looking at.
Other than this, it looks really nice. Good job!!! Dave.
BTW: Why do the HTML tags show up in my post when I view it, but not when I'm creating or editing it?

| This page is wide because shep posted a picture that was wider that 1024.
Go in and edit your post, uncheck the "Disable HTML" box to fix the tags that you see.

| DaCoder,
Just a suggestion. Don't log out. I logged on when I first registered and I don't think I have logged out except for one time since, and that was when I was deleting some cookies.
Thats what is so nice about this site. You don't see any of that bashing crap on this site like you do on WC, so there really is no need to be able to switch identities back and forth in order to speak up. Everyone here gets along, and nobody makes waves, even during football season! |

Location: Niagara Falls New York | The only thing so far is the wide screen it was nice before no side to side movement. Just scroll up and down was good. Other than that you guys do an outstanding job with this site and I always enjoy being here. Keep up the good work. |

| Sorry about making the page wide. hehehe What happened to the "Skins" appearance choice? I kind liked that feature.
I took the big fish off. Does that make it all better?

While checking my inbox I see that I have 3 in the outbox? Does that mean that those 3 messages were never read by the person(s) they were sent to? |

Location: Fond du Lac, WI | There wasn't any "Disable HTML" box that I could see when I edited my post. I had to go into the Control Panel and set the "Use rich edit box when composing messages?" dropdown to "No". I lost the fancy looking edit box, but at least now I don't get the HTML tags showing up.
Thanks.
Dave. |

| Zach,
Seeing as how my pics tend to get a little large, even when I resize to beloww 100K, is it possible to just put up thumbnails in a post? Then if you want to see a larger view, click on it? Similar to the photo album?

Location: Milw, WI | The back button not working after making a post .........bites.
Editing my bad spelling .... It get real weird some times.
Real hard to work with.....so I cut and paste in to another program to write the corrections and then paste it.
other wise it eats up the spaces as I try to edit it.
This is before posting(submiting)..........
Can you change the color of the new posts bar text.....blue or some thing more stand out...
Gray dark gray is not working to hot for me. |
