I'll take a few little site changes over changing gas prices (going up) ANY DAY. But, what's really got me upset is I still haven't received me wedding invite. What's up with that? ??

Yup, priced out a new gx-500 not that long ago and decided that it's time to use the local vinyl shop for my needs...5K plus is a bit steep for me these days. Guess I'll have to wait for another shop to go belly up so I can snatch up their equipment for .05 on the dollar (again).

I'm getting my old one fixed, but I'm keeping it for a backup...........for the day this inevitably happens again.

Watch craigslist, they pop up every once in a while. people get them and think they can use them at home, then realize they are in over their head and dump them for pennies on the dollar.

Hey Pat!
If you go to the top of the page and up in the left side under the toolbar for navigation (ie. Forum, Media, Blog etc.) there is a smaller toolbar with New Posts, Private Messages, FAQ etc.
Click on Forum Actions, then click on General Settings.
Scroll down and you'll find Forum Skin. Click on that and chose Velocity.Then click Save Changes on the very bottom left of the page.
It will make the looks of everything change.
You'll now have a Black Background with White text.
This should make it really easy to read.
Hope this helps, Tom

Tom, you can make the same change much easier. Go to the bottom, left corner of any page you're on, there is a small box with a down arrow \/, it's the 'Quick Style Chooser'. You can choose from the 3 themes/styles...Default Style, CHR or Velocity. Only 2 clicks of the mouse, same results.

BTW, depending on which style page you're currently on, the name of that style will be in the box next to the \/.

Not a bad idea. This was an emergency situation though. I have jobs stacked up and needed a replacement yesterday. I've been running the wheels off the new one since trying to get caught up. Being in the construction sign biz. this is my busiest time of the year.

thanks thats better on my eyes ? well no that carbon fiber is making me dizzy

The only complaint I have is.... My HotRod is not the avatar for the photo gallery any more! Actually I should say... Thank You Brent, for my 15 minutes of fame!

Your roadster was the poster child for the photo gallery for a long time, Dave!! Gonna miss not seeing it there everyday! Do you still have it, or has it been replaced?

Just my opinion but i did used to have trouble getting into the site on ocassions but since the upgrade its been worse, i've just tried to get on for 4 or 5 days without sucess, it just says timed out ?????????????
Got on today no problem though.

I think its a bit slower,but I am getting used to it..Steve..have you been putting enough coins in the slot??

I think so mate
i never log out so its not that, I get email notifications and just click the link to take me to the site, this morning its going straight in though, maybe its been fixed
