So, how does everyone like the new look of BOL???

Personally, I like it!


I wonder if we will be able to post pictures now.



Well lets find out!


If this works, the picture you are looking at was taken by me on Saturday Nov. 18th. It is not something that is normally seen by the public, which is why I thought I would share it with you. It is the Space Shuttle Endeavour sitting in the Orbiter Proessing Facility (OPF) with no motors installed.

How do you only view your favorites? I've tried changing some things but so far it isn't working.

Great new look! Hopefully I'll have some time to explore.

Cool Pic Bimmer...Like always your cool meter just rose a notch.

As far as the new look goes. I like the look, but am still trying to figure everthing out. I guess it gives me something to do today.

It is actually more than an upgrade and provides better security. For those who like it, merry early Christmas. For those of you who don't like change, it's time to build a bridge.

We hope you enjoy the change.

Okay...I get it. To use the smiley faces you have to select Reply and not do the quick reply.

I am so smart!

I agree.

Two things I can't figure out yet

  • How to find out "Who's Online"
  • The threads with new posts since I last read don't appear different like they used to


Also, it looks like a lot (but not all) of my deleted PMs back to February have reappeared.

I like the new smileys, but we're still missing a "kiss" one.

I'm not sure that I like the new look - looks like a lot of other sites, sort of like a throw back, but if pictures can be posted, I like it!

I feel "lost" and "out of sorts"!

I'm sure it will just take a while to get used to it.

I love it. For those who dont know the coding for php images is [img] [/img] and between those codes needs to go the actual url of the object.

Is it working really super slow for anybody else?

It could be just my computer today, but MAN is this thing taking forever to load each time I do anything...

The lack of the kiss smiley is for all of our safety.

What happened to "My Favorites?" I can't find them.....where did they go? Anyone else having a problem with the favorites?

Some parts of it I like; some I don't. I agree it will take some time (at least for me) to get used to.
