I don`t need to "relax" as I am not hyper.

You on the other hand....

Do you even know what "pot calling the kettle black" means? I was referring to *you* and your hypocrisy. Had nothing to do with "them" being willing to listen or not.

Do you ever post anything helpful?

Changes have obviously been made, as the site now takes up the entire width of my 24" screen. This is a definite improvement, and I appreciate it.

Still don`t like the new look, but at least the most annoying problem that I was having is gone.

Cool, thanks for that change.

Tried to re-up the pictures I uploaded earlier (the first batch was resized to 400 x 300) and now I get this message:

OMG! And Vista was the begining of the end for Windows...Bill Gates lives in a refrigerator box under a bridge now and we`re all on Macs...and then I woke up...why don`t you guys relax a little?

Vista didn`t change navigation much. This is a 180. Plus the colors. I almost ordered a hard drive & a mouse pad from here today

Do you post anything with out crying ? You have done nothing but ***** and complain about the changes in the site. Check my posts i have said nothing but good things about this site.And anytime i agreed with someone who had something negative to say about the site was because they did it with class and the respect!

I think my post read more doomsday sounding than it was intended. So thats my fault. I am quite relaxed. I was just disapointed in the site.

However, I`m pleased to see the new owners ARE listening. So many times new owners don`t and just do it their way and if you don`t like it you can leave, and many do. Its encouraging to see their effort put forth in this area.

Yeah, and you yourself showed a TON of respect and maturity (and made a very helpful and constructive post) when you said this:

Hypocrisy much?

Oh btw, for those that commented earlier...the `Review` section show the reviewers name again. Working with the developers of the review program to get the picture of the reviewer to show as well. Should hopefully be fixed in the next few days .

Well said, and I agree. Good to see the owners are listening, and changes are being made.

I`m sorry, I don`t agree this is a "180". I used to come here and click on "new posts" and get a list of threads that I could click on. There were buttons to click to move from page to page, buttons for "reply", etc. Now I come here and hit "what`s new", and get a list of threads that I can click on. There are buttons, etc. The colors are really not even that much different, IMO...mostly the addition of the yellow. Perhaps you and I visit different portions of the site. I don`t like change better than anybody else, but some of you guys sound like you`ve never gotten a new car, a new cell phone, a new cable box, or yes, a new OS version. Losing the gallery is a big deal, however, if the result is all old threads losing their pictures (if the pictures were hosted here). Unfortunately for the most part software upgrades are a necessary evil, whether at home, work, or your favorite forum.
