    Thanks for your hard work during the hectic change.

    Can we make the new posts dot bigger?

    Page up/down buttons?

    So far so good. Some of you folks need to be more adaptable to change. I liken the software
    change to learning the ergonomics of a new car. It's takes some time but when you have it
    down you realize that the change is for the better.

    I just keep clicking buttons like its a new Super Mario Brothers game. I have not found the
    beanstalk yet though :eek:

    I think it's great. I have fiddled with it all day and it's grown on me like herpes.
    I just wish I could Like my own posts.

    Xan, I don't think you have to hit the blue dot. Just click on the thread title and it will take you to the first unread message.

    Maybe we should try a black background and have text in retina red, along with twinkling stars in the background.

    Have the whole thing look like we're playing 1988's Captain Blood.

    I don't see the ability to make pages have a certain amount of posts per page. Am I missing it? I used to have it set at 50 or 100 posts/page. This seems to be stuck at 12 or so.

    You know, that is exactly what the outlay reminds me of.

    Well, not all change is for the better. If we could see our numbers of posts that would be good. Otherwise, the "fetch me a beer" jokes are meaningless. lol

    Oh, I'm looking for the hidden coin box, by the way... ;)

    Jeff:

    Why won't this damned thing let me change my password?

    I'd have sent this to you in a PM, but I don't see any way on here to send a PM (or to receive them for that matter).

    PMs are "Conversations" now. Click on your name at the top right and then on Conversations and you should be able to send/receive PMs.

    You can also hover your name in the same right corner. The pop up menu will have a password option to click on
