I actually really like it. A couple things I believe could be improved upon is the spacing of the thread list in each forum, and a more distinct line between the body of the post and the signatures. Other than that, I like the features!

Also, one little thing, maybe the quick navigation at the bottom of the thread could be moved to the left side??

Am I understanding correctly that we can post pics directly from the computer also?

I don't believe so. I think you still have to upload them to the web first.

You should hang that up on you're refrigerator. That's some world class art right there. :D

The red sky is worrisome to me (end of the world?), other than that it's amazing.

BTW, I like the new software, the only thing I don't like is how cluttered the threads are on each forum. Maybe a darker color scheme for thread links would look better and easier to distinguish?

That's my only complaint. Other than that it looks real nice.

Red sky in the morning a chatters warning, red sky at night a chatters delight!

lol, touche'

I'm actually really starting to like the new software a lot better than the older stuff. Love the new reply bar and the quote feature is a tad "cleaner" than before as well.

I'm liking this new logo also, even though I didn't have any issue with the other one.

Moved the quick nav to the left. I like it a lot better over there.

Looks like it needs to be done at the thread level too. The forum pages have it on the left now, then in threads it's on the right. Some of our technologically challenged posters heads' will explode.

Yeah, I noticed that about right after I posted but couldn't stay awake any longer. I'll get around to it today.

Also, would it help things out if I changed the color of the links on the threadlist? So things aren't so blue. Maybe change it to a dark red or dark green or something. Maybe just black.

I agree maybe some darker colors but I am too getting used to it and liking it.

at the bottom of the thread page there is some stats. one of them says active members: 940. what is that about?

if there is only 84 online members how is there 940 active?

^^
I'd guess that "active members" means members who have posted in recent times, as opposed to people who made an account but never posted, or haven't posted in a long time.

The divider between the post and the signature needs to be more prevalent. It's hard to distinguish.

does the "green light" that signifies who is on-line partially obscure screen names; or is that just on my internets?

does the check box of threads you have posted on only apply since the software change?

did I just ask two question that have already been asked?

You know what? I actually agree with you and thank you for posting that. I took my signature off because I didn't like how it looked smashed together with your post.

But the reason I posted here was to say that the more I look at the logo, the more I like it. The outline of Ohio with the OC inside and the little arrow pointing out like a character box in a cartoon is very good. I like it.

BTW, dlazz, I still despise your avatar.

I feel like Rodney Dangerfield....I posted the signature line suggestion twice in this thread prior to dlazz! :D
