Looks Good . . . .

Graham,

The new 'home' looks good.

Congratulations to all who have had a hand in making this happen, especially Graham.

So, for the first (and probably the last time) I'll use a 'smiley' . . . . . .

:g

 

[Graham Marsden]

Thanks Peter, I think I'll have a pint of Guiness as well - by god I need one!:g

 

[marie marling]

too confusing i like the old site better but with the new smileys

 

[Jeff Woodhouse]

Marie,
There's an awful lot going on in this new area and it will take time to get used to it. A bit like the difference betwen driving an old Moggy 1000 and the latest cars with buttons galore, or for me, a new mobile phone.


If you see something you're not sure about or would like to see some improvements on, let us know, but be as specific as possible, please.

Thanks......

Jeez Marie ---How can it be confusing -you've managed to make a post and you've only been on 5 minutes....

 

[Peter Jacobs]

It takes a while . . . . .

. . to get used to the new style(s) but when you do I think you'll agree that it is a great improvement.

Now, Mr. Editor(s): how on earth do I turn off those damn cartoon characters?

I've already used my quota for 2009, and probably 2010 as well.

 

[Jeff Woodhouse]

You don't Mr Jacobs, they can't be turned off.

Get used to it, this is the 2009 edition of FM.

 

[Kevin Perkins]

I'm sure it will be lovely when it's finished.............

 

[marie marling]

thanks guys it will take some getting used to,i just prefer to read what is written on the previous post when i am typing my reply.and where are the smileys that are drinking? i want one.

 

[Peter Jacobs]

Are you kidding?

Jeff,

Being serious for one moment; if the cartoons cannot be switched off then my time on FM will be greatly restricted.

Peter, if you use the 'Quick reply' and don't click on 'advanced' you won't see the smiley list.

They're here Marie :g:g:g:g

 

[Peter Jacobs]

I hope you are kidding . . . . .

. . . Jeff,

It may be 2009 but I still prefer to see plain text rather than cartoon characters, and the infernal things take forever to load onto a mobile . . . . .

So, I hope you are kidding, otherwise my FM time in the future will be greatly reduced.

I see, or rather don't see the smiley things when using this medium, but does that alter them to html on the forum pages?

They are still there on the forum pages.

I'm in hooray

I think other peoples smileys show up as smileys --- It would be better if you could have the option to turn them off so all you see is the code for them ... like on the old FM

That is exactly what I was trying to get to, thanks Ed.

We had that option on the old FM so surely (I know, don't call you shirley) it is not beyond the capabilities of the new technical staff to recreate it.

Who are you lot?

I don't recognise anyone without a profile pic on the post.......

 

[Wobbly Face (As Per Ed)]

Well I'm on, not too sure at preseent just need to get use to format. Like trying a new fishing technique.

 

[ED (The ORIGINAL and REAL one)]

I can't get it to accept a profile picture, Paul !
