You probably need to change your settings for posting...go to settings at the top of the page, click general settings on left sidebar, then down the page under Miscellaneous Options change to Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing then click save. Smilies, font colours etc should then show when you post x

I also used the Unread Topics feature most but I have found that if you go to the main forum and then scroll all the way to the bottom, you will see a sort order. By default it shows newest posts in descending order but you can change it to Thread Start descending order and hit sort or whatever it says. That puts all the new topics first. You can then see the new threads as they happen. I haven't found a way to save this setting so I have to change it every time but it works for me. Also--the search function is awesome compared to the old board.

I agree Sunflower Girl, I wasn't thrilled with it to begin with. But, it doesn't seem as bright as it did on the initial change. And there seems to be some really nice features that are new. So, i'm still wading in and I am starting to like it. And, hopefully everyone else will also.

But they (my big girl panties) keep falling down! My problem is that I don't know what I have replied to -- I love to greet the newbies and reply to chit-chat -- I know that entries are dated, but.... maybe I can figure this out -- I can always look at pix and quilting talk! LOL -- another old dog

Believe me, I have no problem with change when there is a clear reason for it. I am a change leader in my work place and I am normally the one encouraging others to give change a chance. But I also know that there are good ways to introduce change, and there are not so good ways.
So don't tell me its all about my underwear. It's not, and it would nice if there could be some acknowledgement of the fact that the fallout is not all about resistance to change, but also about poor communication. I don't like the tone that is bring used on here, just telling everyone to get over themselves, or that they are behaving like children, or even phrases like "shame on you". That is seldom helpful when people are feeling confronted and indeed is more likely to make them feel like they no longer belong in a place where they once felt safe.
If people are to continue to participate in this comunity they need to get past their negative feelings with a bit of support and listening. Where is that happening? I am not seeing it anywhere.
