Major Update May 10, 2011

Ok Howard, I will wait before checking myself into a clinic.

I hired a professional designer...

Uh-oh ....

It seems even nicer than the beta test version Howard put up a few days ago. Keep those improvements comin'

I'm not to impressed wit the new look there to much clutter. Just my 2 cents

I can get used to anything. One question though. On the old layout, I could simply go to the "new Posts" section and browse what interested me. With this format, the new posts section seems all jacked up. Update may not be complete.......I did not read the whole thread. I also got the same thing NWGreatful Diver got......quick jumps to the left.

I'll give it another day or two and if the new post section does not change, I'll snap a few screen shots to see if anyone else is having the same issues.

Either I'm just getting used to the new look or for whatever reason it looks one heckuva lot better on my Mac here at home than it did on my Windows machine at the office.

I'm looking forward to a skin that cuts down on the brightness.

And I'm hoping the Forums drop down menu returns.

Remember when they shut down for a few days to do an upgrade? We ran wild on SB2 but still missed the real thing. It's really admirable that Howard is allowing us to still use SB while he does the needed work, plus put up with the whining.

Every time I click on the new "Quick Navigation" drop down menu, which I used constantly before, it's at the top line of the menu. It needs to open at the page I'm on, and when I scroll and click a new page, it needs to STAY THERE until I click another new page. None of this always opening it to find it's at the top of the menu again.

I'm still having trouble with the search function. I was using some posts from the last couple of years to plan a trip. Now however, when I search, I'm not able to find some of the key posts, and most of the posts that appear on my searches are 6-10 years old. Is this a temporary situation?

There may have been a problem yesterday with the rebuilding of the search index. I have re-initiated that process. It WILL take a few hours.
