Seems bigger and clunkier... I thought the older was more streamlined and easier to see what was going on. This looks more like Pirate4x4 :(

i do like all the functionalities, will just take some time to get used to it. for example, i just sent a report (bad post) instead of reply to someone's message. reply button is right below that button and both same color. oh well.

Using different features (intermittently) causes IE to swap madly between Done and Downloading. To the point where you cannot even use the browser. You are then stuck killing the window. Performance seems much slower than before. Avatars are silly.

Looks too much like pirate. ;-)

Other than that, once we get some communications going again all will be well. I am sure that the masters will work through the glitches.

I like it so far...will take me a while to figure it all out. Seems a little slower, but that could just be my connection?

I must admit, the days without D-web were very productive, but I needed some tech help on Saturday and was so distraught to find it down!!

Overall, a good change. ;)

I want to like it but the verdict's still out. Someone please tell me why it keeps asking me to sign in. Why can't I sign in once and be done. When I leave the site then sign out???????????

Excellent!

Yes, it will take a wee bit to get used to it, but excellent result. Love the "hottip" ability to see the messages without having to open them.

Good job.

Bigger, gray... different

I think the new pages look good. I was a fan of the green color scheme that was around through the fall, but...

It's all about content!

Golden rules of web site design:
1) don't drop your old site until the new site is throughly tested and ready to go!
2) Test, Test , Test the new site
3) don't drop your old site until the new site is throughly tested and ready to go!

repeat until you are sure it works!


PS to designer of new site: Oh, and don't use framesets, they ar so old style!
This site should be .asp, not .html....
