I had no trouble with the upgrade other than updating my password and reactivating. I finally loaded a photo to my Profile so I don't look like a space alien! What an awful default avatar they have!

Now this is weird. On my Ipad it comes on with the italics,but with my laptop I have the regular block print and found the messages. I don't know what's up with that but talk soon. Wm Fan

WOW, it worked! I went into edit above message and was given the option the change font so I did. I'm sure it's only that one post that changed but I think my type is larger now, I'll see when I post! How did you change font Marylou? I'd like to get that italic look off one of my computers. Thanks WmFan

I thought my computer had gone crazy when I came to the site. I do not like what they have done! But if nothing can be done, then I will have to live with it. How do you send a PM to anyone now? Am I overlooking it? If you click on the arrow by the little "wheel" on the right, one option is "member" - hover over that and you see an option "message" - I presume that is how you would send a PM. It also says "send a gift", but I haven't tried to see what that does. I'm slowly getting used to the new look, and probably will get along fine with it if Brenda can't change it. I don't see any way to preview a post - does anyone know if that feature is still available?

If you click at the bottom of the post where it says visual, that is a preview of the post.

Wm Fan I just checked the forum on ipad, and mine shows the same font as yours, sort of a cursive/italic. It must just be some kind of peculiar ipad thing. I'll see if I can get it fixed.

O.K. This is the second time I have been here today and the second time I had to reset my password. I know I had the correct password. This is getting frustrating!
I do like that it is easier to navigate threads with more than page like this one.

I'm still playing around with it. I really think once we all get used to it, we will like it better. I hope the log in issues that some people are having will be resolved soon.

I had to activate a new email. Password and username was the same.

The system told me I needed to change my password, but I just entered my old one and it accepted it as 'new'. Much easier for me to remember the old one instead of creating a new one - too many to remember as it is. I think I will like the 'new' forum once I have a chance to adapt. I did try pressing the 'like' icon on a post by another member and I didn't notice that anything happened..............did I miss something?

I just now pressed Like on your post, and it said "Forum administrator likes this."
And I just used the same password, too, and I had no problem logging in.

Thanks Brenda. I can see the same message you posted above under the 'My Notifications' section. So now I am wondering if the members who get 'likes' can only see them in their own personal notifications, or can other members see them on the post itself? I am really starting to like this new forum - there are SO many options and settings and different things to try out, it will probably take me months to go through them all.
About previewing a post as was asked by someone else - I don't have any options to preview in the 'quick reply' mode. What did I do wrong?
