How about you send this e-mail to Arafat's wife. Oh, and Hillary too.
Wouldn't work! Their "ugly" would just be pulled up from their necks and into our faces! I'm having to get mine overhauled enough as it is; I don't need their ugly to ward off too!!
You have done a spectacular job.
I like the new format, and I like the changes that have been implemented as the day wore on as well! Maybe we can get T-shirts made up?! Revenue-raiser?! *G*
;-}
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my ping list!. . .don't be shy.
It's like when Kroger has an addition tacked on, and all the grocery aisles get pulled and rearranged. Everything you need is still there; you just have to be a bit more alert to find it! *G*
I have turned off my locale comments which helped.
Breaking news has more articles listed on the right - good!
Poll question has been moved - good!
It is still kind of slow at times even with cable but maybe that will change.
I also like the way that articles that have been read, change color in the listing.
I'm thinking that possibly bolding the headlines on the right may make them more readable? Not sure, but you could try to see how it looked.
I'm retracting my previous complaints - sorry, I'm not so good with changes.
Thanks for all your hard work and for being willing to work with everyone to streamline the setup.
You bet!
The new format is incompatable with web users. Telling us to " go buy a real computer ", isn't the answer ; neither is calling us whiners. A person can't " get used to " the format, when it doesn't work / work well.
I'd really like to hear the reactions , if this new and UMIMPROVED mess wouldn't allow earthlink and AOL ISP users to use most of the functions, had their computers crash more than 1/2 the times they tried to get back to a thread, after posting a reply / going to another thread, and cut the top 1/2 of the screen off.
(that was my only complaint)
