No problems logging on here Jack. It is alot easier to read with these worn out eyes. I can even sit back in my chair and read it.
No more nose prints on the screen my wife will like that .
I did have to go in and delete old messages.

Checks in the mail


HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Glenn

Glad you like it Glenn. I am pretty excited with this move because it means that a lot more cool features are soon to follow! Can't wait to get the new photo gallery up and running

I like it but there is one thing that I don't like. I don't like how on the main forum page you cant read what the title of the last post was. It tells who posted last but not in what topic. Just one little thing. Other than that its GREAT!

i like it as well. looks alot better IMO and seems like theres alot more u can do with it.

just one question, not really an important one, but i remember with the old one, posts in the "other" forum didnt count towards your membership status. im guessing that they now do as somehow i went from "full member" to "senior member"

dont get me wrong, i aint complaining just somethin i noticed.


again, great job

jeff

I did notice that when you quote someone that doesn't work anymore. Not sure if you knew of this but it's not showing up right on my comp. Also it seems like the last post thingy is messed up. Not sure

Test

It works, it just looks different I think.
Jack will be fine-tuning for awhile with all the new gizmos, and toys.

hmmmm ok. I noticed they are working this page:

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...5&pagenumber=2

Could it be because it was done before the site changes?

Yeah, I'm sure hes got some bugs to work out. I'm just trying to help him by finding them for him!!!

The old site software used different code than the new site so some of the options for diplay (quotes, bold print, italics and such) we had before will probably look differnet with the changes.

Thanks for the heads up. I may be able to change the code so it will recognize both. I'll work on it
