Chachachachanges!

Just trying a quick post.  I logged in on a PC using Chrome.  Log in seems okay.  I'll try the iPad later at home.  I don't use a smart phone.

I'll wait to see how things are after some more time passes, but I do like that I could see who made the last post and when they made it on the threads.  Thanks for that!

I'll check in again later . . . .

I was able to log in with IE.

I like that we can "preview post" again.

I can't seem to find the log out button.

Figured I would try this with Firefox browser for Android. I see the custom box now but it is very finiky

I like the blue with no clouds!  Not sure why though I'm posting in script......or maybe I'm not, looked that way though.

Should I have ! (Private msg)  Was going to do the download but it wasn't a safe one according to my 'puter, so thot I'd ask before I went further.

Is it Friday yet?

ETA, the preview post worked for me.

Love your pictures Julie. Especially the one of Abbie and the dogsitter :).

I think I like the new format but will need more time to know for sure.

I ordered new dishes and you'd have thought I was buying a new car the way I agonized over it. The set I have now has only 8 place settings and one of the plates has a large chip in it. Not a problem for the 2 of us but I realized I wouldn't have enough dishes for Christmas Eve dinner. The set we've had is sort of a tuscan style and I decided to go with something much more basic. The new set is off-white and has just enough style to make it non-boring. Now I can decorate around with any colors I choose. I ordered 3 sets of 16, so I'll have plenty for the rare times we entertain. Macy's was having a great sale, so I got all 3 sets for just over $100 and about 1/2 the regular price. Yay me!!

We're hoping to put texture on the walls we removed wallpaper from tomorrow. The temps are supposed to drop again tonight though and we might see snow at the 1,000 foot level. BIL and SIL live above that, so if it snows, we'll have to delay the project. I wouldn't care except the entire dining/living room looks like a bomb went off and I just want it all done. If I had it to do over, I'd have waited to strip the wallpaper but I had no idea it'd be so difficult.

Click on the MyChannel button and Logout is there.

I should have said this before, but I would like to see clickable page numbers at the top of the NDR forum. It's annoying to have to scroll all the way down when you know the newest post is on page 2. I just hit "enter" for a new paragraph, but then I'm most always posting from a PC. But hey, I think I am getting used to this, somewhat, anyways. I know a lot of work has gone into it, and I'm not one for changes...those come hard for us older members who get resistant to change of any sort. Trying here...lol!

The private message download  didn't show up as unsafe with my antivirus software.  I'm not interested in having a second toolbar.  I guess I'll uninstall it.   Is that the only way we can access private messages?  

I see all the same stuff on the right side. Wonder why others don't see it.?

Same stuff?

Click on MyChannel and then Inbox. Or the little message indicator in the top right where it says You have (number) messages. I'm going to post some screen capture run throughs/help videos in the next few days. Just had to get the site live first!

 Julie; the picture of Abby is adorable.

 I like the improvements; it's much easier to navigate the different threads. It was easy to login but I can't find a way to log out.

I think someone already mentioned this but I would also like to see a go to the end of the thread button so you don't have to scroll through unnecessary pages to get the latest post

Jonathan, I know how to access my private messages.  I had a pop up screen that  said I needed to download inboxace to see my private messages.  hmmm.  I guess it was some sort of spam ad or something.  Whatever.  I  only see the cluttery stuff on the right when I first log in, not when I am at a specific thread.  I use the home screen to see the most current threads.  Most have been using the linear format by clicking on the 'discussion forums' button.  No big deal for me, either way.
