New site

[John]

Remember, you still have the option of using the old skin - at the bottom left of the page you will see a pulldown that lets you choose it.

To reward the folks who have given such helpful feedback, there is now a third option - New Look Caudata.org FLUID. What this means it hat it will adjust its width to the width of your browser. This is great news for people with monitors that don't belong in the Stone Age: the site will enlarge its width like the old one! For people still rooted in the Stone Age, the fluid version may also help you see all of a post on the same screen - it will resolutely refuse to be too wide for you. However, these "Stone Agers" will pay a small price - the area at the top of the site will only shrink so far before things start to go behind other things.

So rejoice and be merry and remember that no one who hasn't read this thread will probably ever know about it!

I like the old way before and how it was organized. Maybe it is because I was on it so long like that but it was easy to me with them all right there listed under their respective headings and sub-headings and categories. I knew where to look for my stuff.

If I understand what you mean, you can find the forum listings by clicking "Forum Index" in the black navigation bar at the top of the page. (That's what I do, for the same reason.)

It took me two months, but I just found that option WITHOUT reading this thread
Much improved, thanks John!

Hey Bradley,

If you go to the blogs page and look at the lefthand side of the screen, you will see the option "Post to your blog". You can also do it from the User CP, and from the "Your Blog" option in the "Blogs" drop-down list at the top of each page here.

I've added a link to the community menu that will hopefully solve your problem.
