Hi All,

It caught me a bit off guard! I'd stored a cookie for the site, and when it didn't "know" me, I got worried, what with all the spam and icky stuff that goes on these days online!! Glad to see it's just changes in format and all. Looks nice, so far, though I am not sure if I'm oriented yet, or not. If I see anything I feel moved to comment on specifically, I'll pop in and post again!

Thanks, TCS team, for the hard work involved in updating and maintaining order for us all!!

Search function seems to be working fine for me. What word/s did you search for that got you the "no matches" message?

As for the public groups - I have yet to figure it out myself. This is one of the new features available, along with the ranks system, reputation system and other goodies (not opeational yet). I think that public groups means something like clans - where you can divide the community into different groups, each with its own set of ranks. For example in a football board, you would have members who belong to specific groups, according to their favorite group in real life if you see what I mean. I don't think this is relevant here really.

I noticed that when I tried to find the old thread about the Apprentice even though I told it search fully and check old and new threads, the only one it brought up was Kass's new one about nakita, and not the one I was looking for- so I started a new thread.

I am going to try and locate my April Contest thread now, lets see if I am successful or not

Your'e not being a nusiance Sam - this is really helping me sort things out on my end

I got 3 search results for the word Apprentice.

Chchchanges doesn't bring up anything because this thread is called Chchchchanges

As for Kiwideus - if you're looking for posts by her you need to use the advanced search function and look for posts made by her. That should work.

Search in child forums means that if you search for example in the lounge and include child forums, it will also search "fur pictures". If you don't include child forums it'll ignore "fur pictures" and only search the lounge.

So I've just discovered. Miss Silver and shades, but VB3 is fine. As long as I have something in basically muted blue tones, I'm ecstatic.

I still have a LOT of exploring to do, but I'm really looking forward to it. First indications are that the changes are EXCELLENT! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou!

Ahhh gotcha now. Yip but the thread I was looking for didn't come up(just like hissy said), never mind. One more thing each time I go onto a new site and then come back to TCS, it's swtiched back onto default, for the color.. not really a major thing.

Thanks again!

Sam, there is an option to change it in your Control Panel. I think that's probably where you need to change it to keep the color style.

Hmm, the google ads seem to be running amok. On the main page of a forum, i.e. the Lounge, they are HUGE and take a bit of scrolling to get past. Now I also notice that the ads also appear beneath the first post in a thread.

I don't think Anne is done, she has to move them and reduce them, but at midnight her time, she simply ran out of steam.

This may sound a little bit off the wall, but I have recently started using voice recognition software for my computer and for some reason the reply and quote options are not available as images or as links in my software.

I don't know if that's something you can fix, but just wanted to let you know.

The site looks great!

Thanks Heidi. I should have done that in the first place, I just thought it was so handy having it down the bottom.. another cat forum I'm on(exactly the same layout as this) stays in place when you change it. But I'm not complaining.

I second that! It'll take a little bit of time to get used to the changes, but I really like the new "look" and features.

Man! I wish I didn't have to have it on something muted at work. I love the Purrples and Red Tabbies!

p.s. I just had the same problem Deb was describing earlier, in the Quick Reply when you use Bold, Italic or Underline, it only puts in the beginning VB code, not the end...

I accidently double posted in a thread, and tried to delete the second post. That second post is still in the thread and now has this message directly underneath it:

Hi Lorie,

I went to your double post and it didn't have that message underneath. I deleted a double post the other day and it worked fine for me, try again.
