I believe it's connected with the Google Adsense bar at the top of the page. Google I'm not concerned about, it's the other bots that I've never heard of, like Voyagerbot.

its just wrong to have the avatar on the right...

I much prefer it on the left myself, but am getting used to the new look and feel. What I dislike the most is the ambiguity of the "read/unread" icon that is before each thread title. At CT, using the black theme is the easiest to determining what's read and what's not, here there isn't a big difference as long as you're using ss2, but any of the other themes and it's nearly impossible to tell if there's new posts or not.

A new thing here that isn't over at CT is when making a reply you've got the font color chart to the right of the response box. While this makes for quickand easy color changes,it makes it much more difficult to input a response because the text box is so small.

Aw well, if we didn't have something to complain about we wouldn't be happy now, would we! LOL :lol: :lol:

what is very cool now is that when you haven't read all the posts and log off, when you come back these are still marked as unread. It was a PITA before, now the wife will be happier with a more chopped reading :D

It might be marking them as SPAM now. Id suggest allowing emails from [email protected] to come through. Most spam filters have a white list area.

My email does not have spam filtering. Well, it does but I turn it off. You never know when you might need 2% off your mortgage or 2% on your............pride. Yeah, that's it.

Now I did get a message when I first logged on yesterday that my messages were on hold because my box was full. But the bar only shows like 50%. I'll clean that out and see if I start getting the email notifications again. I'll be lost if I don't. I hardly ever remember what I say on what thread. Sometime I'll go back and think, did I really type that? And Why? :shock:
