Upgrade Status

[K9soul]

Just what I need now on top of everything else, an ugly, hard to look at design.

That post really seems like a slap in the face to Karen and Paul who have done a lot of hard work to make Pet Talk better for all of us! Many love the new design, others will need to adjust to it, but before long it'll seem just as "normal" as the old design! Personally the blue is easier on my eyes than the white, as I stare at a white screen all day for work. I think you are being a bit overdramatic . I wish instead that you could recognize how hard Karen and Paul are working to make PT better for all of us .

I personally think it's nice, much more of what I'm use to looking at on other message boards. Great work.

I agree - Suki Wingy - have you EVER said anything nice - ever?
why must you be so nasty all the time?

sheeesh



Personally its growing on me - it takes time for everything that is new.
Good job Karen and Paul.

I am still fairly new to this site, but I enjoy it so much that I am here several times a day while at work Some may take a "cigarette break", but I sit at my desk and look at pet talk!

Thank you for a great site for all of us! I enjoy the updates, and keep up the great work!

I have to say it took me by surprise, but I acclimate quite quickly and love the different features! Great job Paul (and Karen) I'm still feeling my way around the new format, and agree that everything moves faster now.

Thanks again, Karen and Pau.

I rather enjoy the change. It didn't take me by surprise as you did announce the upgrade.

Thank you, thank you.

The one thing I am confused about and maybe it is b/c I am just too dense to figger it out but we can't send Private messages via the buddy list anymore? I used that a lot....
But maybe I just can't figger it out...

You can send a PM to more than one person at a time, just use a semi colon - ; - to separate each username. I'll have to delve further into the buddy list thing, as I never use it.

... but can't send Private messages via the buddy list anymore?

SURE ya can!!

1) Click on "Quick Links" - top bar on each page - right end

2) Third option down is "Open Buddy List" - *click* it ...

3) You'll get another Drop-Down Box with all you're Buddies listed AND

4) A Check Box beside each Buddy's Name

5) CHECK each Buddy you want to send a common PM to; FIVE max!

6) Scroll DOWN to the bottom of the Drop-Down Box and *click* the action box.

7) You'll get a standard PM page with the Buddies on the Send To: line.



One thing I HAVEN'T figgured out -
Used to be able to FORWARD a PM to the Buddy List ...
Don't know that secret, yet.
