Much better

I like the peach color. Much better than that glaring orange.

You might want to check your monitor. Or, perhaps you are just getting old. On second thought, your monitor is probably just fine. :wink:

And can I just say how much I appreciate the King's English spelling of 'colour' on the right side of the screen. That just screams classy! :-D

Agreed.

Well worth the upgrade. It is always the small things that make the difference. Thank you, Grant.

If you to into the User Control Panel and select "Board Preferences" you can change the language from "British English" to "English (United States)" and then the word will appear as "color" ;)

You know, that's interesting, because the default setting is EN-US (which is US English)... but when everyone was imported over from the old system, they were assigned EN (which is British English). New users (I assume) are assigned EN-US. But yes, you can go into your User Control Panel and assign the language of your choice.

If anyone has a request for any other languages, I can install them. The list of available translations is here:

Thing I've noticed most is when some fool posts a picture that's too big for the screen, only that post needs scrolling. Very cool in a small way.

Don't believe me?

Can ya be a little more specific?? What do you miss? What don't you like? Or do you just not like CHANGE in general... not necessarily specific to this website, but just change makes you uncomfortable?

Let me know if there's specific things you'd like to see or wish was different...

The new site looks great. Thanks for all you do for BG Sports.
Really liking the post updates when you preview a post.
Since you asked for suggestions, how about a BlackBerry App? Make the site faster and easier for those of us on the go or too lazy to turn the computer on...
