It's much better than this morning...the annoying flag is gone from the side, the article names in latest post are bolded bigger which makes it easier on the eyes, the breaking news now has more breaking news...it's very good once it's setup correctly.

[CARTOUCHE]

Kiss my ass twit!

What are you talking about? I was speaking solely about the forum's utility in dispensing information, not some ethereal spirit that you seem to be intimating.

It looks great. FR is probably the best-run of the political sites around. I don't say that lightly.

[The Westerner]

Have to say that the center posts section is too small. After reading for quite some time, my eyes feel strained. I wonder if Jim could revert back to the wider style after the opening banner. Also, it would be great to place the color banner at the top so there isn't so much competing visual content as you scroll down the posts. There's really no purpose to having it display so prominently next to the lastest posts, since we know how to find them. As I say, go back to the wide display format for the sake of our eyes. Otherwise, I'm going out to buy a pair of magnifying eyeglasses.

I can only conclude that the pissers and moaners are either low IQ dweebs, or people who pose as FreeRepublic supporters but who are lost souls destined for failure

You know, GilGil, your pissing and moaning about pissers and moaners and calling them names tells us a lot about our IQ and maturity.

I think FR should have a massive change every week. That way the whining weenies will eventually disappear for good. (Oh, and I believe you misspelled Grrrreeeeaaattt.)

[who knows what evil?]

Whatever changes have been made are no thanks to you who kept your mouth shut. You owe those changes to those who did not keep there mouth shut. Kind of like this country came about because of the people who did not keep there mouth shut. Did you ever stop to think about that?

ROTFLMAO! My wife is STILL laughing...I'll grant you; I made a terrible mistake with my "keeping my mouth shut" statement. (Something I have NEVER done in most circumstances...I am noted for sticking my opinion into any situation, regardless of who is involved or what the consequences may be...a habit that I am SURE will lead to my death.) Earlier in the day, I made the comment to another poster that I would like to see the poll moved to another location or removed completely; and that I would like to see more than FIVE items at a time posted under "BREAKING NEWS". That was it. I knew my quiet comment would come to the attention of the Robinsons, who were being BESEIGED with a lot of unnecessary 'yelling and screaming'. I made my point...I didn't have to 'cancel my monthly'; keep repeating myself; and so forth. As far as I'm concerned, that is what people should have done. Politely state your piece or make your request; then sit back and allow Jim and John to address your particular issue. In most cases, that has been done. My apologies for not making my point more clear; my words were poorly chosen.

Happy Easter Bucky.

[nhoward14]

that to me is the single most helpful change of all... now I can remember that I am posting at midnight and not 10 PM... :)

[hole_n_one]

I'm glad to see you you back from your timeout

LOL!

[hole_n_one]

you you

[Buckeroo]

May God grant us grace.

[wattsmag2]

All we have to do is ask.

[Libloather]

Several massive changes every day will do as well...

[Buckeroo]

You ask for manmade methods to destroy our lives? In the last century, over 50,000,000 folks, like you, begged government. Those same folks got what they asked for: death.

I will go down not begging; I will go down shooting the crap out of my oppressors.

I tried posting a humorous Herbert Kornfield piece about the changes but it got pulled.

Yo yo yo bruthah, this dog is so not down with DAT SHIZIT...
