Message Board change

More of a statement and a question, but for me the message board seems to load slower then before...anyone else notice this?

Just an update....My Firefox browser seems to load much faster then Internet Explorer with the new message board.

I agree that the boards are much slower and they have frozen my IE too. I don't think I care for the width either, they used to be wider.

I think the boards would be easier to look at if the first menu page had every other topic highlighted or a different color rather then having every other column highlighted or a different color. It would make it easier to follow across the page from left to right. Thanks.

Is this just an Internet Explorer Issue?

It's working perfect on Firefox for me. Explorer is terrible for many things. Download firefox

New size and font looks good Greg.

Fonts are a little bit smaller, but close enough. Let's stretch this out first and then see how close we are to where the old boards were.

I was told that because of the way our header is built that we can't spread the message board all the way to the sides. Sorry. We still feel a little squished, but hopefully we'll be okay.

we need to balance out this boat...way to many folks sitting on the left side...feels like it may tip over any minute

We have identified the problem with IE that is leading to the slow loading time. We'll fix that tomorrow and it shouldn't be a problem going forward. Something imbedded in the top header is causing this only on IE, but we'll fix that tomorrow. Hope that helps. Thanks all.

Same problem here, good deal.

Sweet.

Faster loading.

Fancy background that brightens up the place a needed bit.

Centered on screen, yet does what it should on a window resize.

Thumbs up for todays changes.
