I would like it if all the text was serif, like the titles of the articles seem to be right now. The breaking news section seems to be sans serif, which hurts me old eyes!

I see.. it’s over in the sidebar.

I suggest another at the top of the forum page. :D

I have something labeled "RSS" but no sidebars. Others have complained they have ALL of the sidebars now, so maybe we're in the learning stage and will figure it out.

Overall, the changes seem to have cleaned up the pages, so I like them.

Currently the best way to post an article is to use the sidebar box titled "Browse by Forum". There's a "Post" link for each forum. I'm working on an alternative, a single post button that will prompt for the forum, but it isn't ready yet.

Change is inevitable...nothing ever stays the same.

Don't forget "hope". Hope and change, change and hope.

The sidebars are forcing Arial, though I prefer the page be in a serif font. Can they be “unforced?”

Uhh. Sorry Jim.

Somethings on the Net shouldn't change their distinct view.

FreeRepublic and Drudge.

One thing. Since the search box has changed, how do you search by username? I use that feature quite frequently.

Just one little opinion here, but I liked the ability to search by poster, keyword, topic, etc.

Also liked being able to default the “Forum” selection to go straight to “Messages” instead of threads and then to comments. Just makes for extra keystrokes.

But, whever, thanks for a great site and lively forum!

well, also I sometimes say things that I wish I hadn’t said. This is probably why there isn’t an edit function to make people think before posting.
