Congratulations Anne, it looks fabulous! Its a nice clean design, easy to follow, and very pretty. I love the scrolling forum topics, I bet that brings a lot more new people to the forum.

Great work, everyone!

Anne:

When I pull up the Home Page, the small type about copyright info lays over the area where the poll is, instead of at the bottom of the page. Also, is there a lot of space that is yet to be filled, or is that just on my computer?

Ok, I took a 2nd look. In the place between the upper boxes and the ones with the Cat cards abd the poll, I detect a very thin band that has the red x in it.

If others are not seeing the same thing as me, then I guess you should know that I run IE on a Mac.

Thanks for letting me know Deb - must be a Mac compatibility issue with the script that runs the poll...

Love it, love it, love it!

Happy Anniversary Anne and M.A.!!! Thanks for all your hard work, long hours, and creating such a wonderful community to visit daily!

It was one year ago yesterday since I signed up as a member. It must be a great place to keep me coming back for this length of time!

Love the new design, but it's the people and friendships here that keep bringing me back.

Anne and MA, you have done a great job, thanks for TCS.

Wish I could show you what I see...I'll try to describe:

3 boxes along top: cat product, new on tcs, new on the forums.

Forum box has no copy in it. cat product box is slightly lower than other 2.

Beneath top 3 boxes, thin area - white - with red x

4 boxes beneath: catsplay.com ad, cat cards, poll, meowhoo ad

Copyright text runs through this area

Scroll down. Box with cat of the week on the left. The rest is just blank white.

Maybe if Kim sees what I see, she can somehow snap a picture of it and post it. She runs Mac too.

Anne, the new design looks great! You've worked very hard on this site and I, for one, appreciate it!

And the cat of the week is a purrfect choice!
Very fitting to have the princess on the debut of the catsite!

I have an iBook and noticed what you are talking about, must be a problem with the way IE for mac renders pages. I'm not sure you have tried it but Safari renders the page perfectly with the exception of the "New on our Forums". In general, my experience with Safari is that it's much better than IE. Also Microsoft is no longer going to put out updates for IE on mac so it's probably wise to switch over. If your interested in trying it look here.

Anne, it looks postitively splendid! Love the new Royal Canin Banner in Health- the placement of all the ads and text on the pages and I so appreciate all the long hours you have spent working on this design getting it just right, tweaking it so and then tweaking it more!

Lady-friend- YOU TOTALLY ROCK! (that's American slang for I think you are the best!)


And how about that? We launched ON TIME!

Yep, the site is definitely geared towards IE - and the later versions too...

I'll look into it - but I can't promise much. The main page involves several applications runnning in the background and not all of them are compatible with other browsers...

Can you please let me know if the problems are only with the main page? or is it the articles pages as well?
