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.

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.

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!

Wow, once again changes happening right before our eyes.

Things look great, a little confusing but I know you are always looking out for the best to happen here.

I’ll feel my way around but so far so good John.

prefer the old display format (typeset, layout, etc) it’s very dignified.

Some of the new features are great. The tabs Articles, Comments, and Activity. The last two of these are nice because they give me a birds eye view of current topics. I like that the keywords have been shortened.

I don’t like the new Search feature (top right). Though the larger search comes up after we use the basic one, please consider bringing the previous search feature back.

You might also want to bring back the # of thread views info. Quite a few of us are missing this feature (as evidenced by other posts on different threads).

Overall, I like the new format better (visually and functionally) but would really like to see the old search come back.

Please, please, please, please make it so I can see the actual comments when I click on comments, please?

All I get is the headers only, even with

Headers Only Brief listings showing the title of the thread, to whom the comment is addressed (if addressed), the numbered sequence within the thread, the date and time, and the posting user's screen name.

Message Bodies Full listings include headers and the bodies of messages.

Message bodies selected.

Other than that, I like the tabbing, and putting Post at each forum, and the look and feel is nice.
