I quit!
I hate this "NEW" place. Its no longer fun or interesting to come here, only frustrating and tedious. But, thanks for the improvements! Bye.

I'm not wild about the new look either, but I'll be damned if a color scheme is going to impact me enough to leave an awesome community.

yeah, just color and font. I liked the old style better. Sleeker, easier on the eyes, like a horizontal top tube. But it won't drive me off.

Gee, did all the people leave when the forum changed? Do you have problems programming your DVR?

I don't mind the new look, but I do miss seeing posts by East Hill, Cyclotoine, OFG, Caterham, etc, etc. Now that "is" something to worry about. Bit of a brain drain here me'thinks! I can catch their posts in some cases on other boards, but not always. Probably will force me to actually get going on this basement remodeling project and get out of denial land.

I am not exactly thrilled with the new format, but there is too much good stuff that will keep me here.

No, none of us have problems programming our DVR or anything else for that matter. This new forum SUCKS. It's change for changes sake. Kind of like going to 11 sp when 7 or 8 did just fine. The skin and it's associated changes just doesn't cut it.
