I might have stumbled onto this one. . .

Is this the first thread now that the Boards are back? I see most of the smilies are back, but all seem some sickly-ghostly white–sorta the same color as them aliens that “took me for a ride” last Tuesday night.

So, anyway, thoughts?

I thank Jerry and the ChiTown Reader for the upgrades, but it’s gonna take me some time to get used to 'em.

Just a couple of pennies. But hopefully the hamsters are now safer.

If you go to “About This Message Board” it has a thread about what people are thinking of the changes so far. I, myself, am indifferent.

Well, this is my first post since the update. I hope they add location. It sure is useful. Other then that it’s not so bad. To tell the truth I’ve almost forgotten how it used to look.

Good ol ;j is still here.
