I was already looking to see if the avatars and such can be moved back to the left side of the page, but I think it might be part of the template/theme that's used by default on here.

Not to worry, with the upgrade done, I'll be adding more.

Yep, I like them better on the left side.

Didn't see a quote button, but since I was also kicked out, I wasn't logged back in either

I suspect most will, myself included.

May be a minor inconvenience everyone has to live with until I can get more styles/themes uploaded.

We've lived with worse....

This new format will take some getting used to, but how many times have we done it before and carried on.....


THANKS DAVE!!!!

Nice joint! May I throw out the ceremonial first acorn?

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

Is there a way to put the "quote" and "edit" buttons back at the top of the message rather than at the bottom?

Also, my "default language" is "British English" and there are no other options. That means things like the option for changing the color of my font is spelled "colour".

The whose online thing moved too.

You have to scroll to the bottom to see who else is here.

Minor, but I liked it at the top.

Somehow I don't think that this is "the change we need". :D

I made note of that last night and made Dave aware of it. Don't know if it is something that can be tweaked, but I definitely like it better at the top. I noteice on a lot of other message boards, though, the members online list is usually also at the bottom....

Nope. "Trouble sleeping" implies that I attempted to sleep during the night. :mrgreen:

I have caught a few Z's already this morning, though. Good thing I'm off work today....I'll need to catch a few more hours between now and lunch.

I knew Fanny would love the new default spelling. :mrgreen:
