DS Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 No - it's the website that's moving, not our offices! In fact, even the website isn't moving - it's changing. The web address will be the same. [ 18.04.2008, 12:28: Message edited by: DS ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Posted April 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Well we are now back on line and in the 21st century. I know it will take a while for people to get used to the new format. All the origianl facilities are on here some where - they just take a bit of finding. makes life a little more interesting. Happy posting.

DavyG Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 I realise there may be teething troubles but it looks like chaos at the moment with 2008 posts mixed in with 2005 /2002/2003 etc. Being honest I prefer the old format but I may get used to it. Very similar to the Guardian and Runcorn/Widnes World forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theinsider Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Most things seem pretty much the same to me - apart from 1. The colours! 2. The gramlins 3. No avatars But there are lots of new features, like you can chnage your font colour or eventhe size I am sure things will settle down once people get use to it. Shame about the older posts being all over the place - but at least there is plenty to whinge about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Wel Rome wasn't buit in a day as they say! Whatever you did didn't seem to work so I've re-sized it and given myself some specks in the process. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
