Mike, I keep discovering new stuff when I use the forum like the online banner near the avatar, the little star on the thread showing you have replied to that thread and now if you click on some members, you can find out more stuff like membership number and the year joined. Very cool. Thanks for keeping us up to date.

I have to ask, what is the "add foe" feature? I clicked on it and it asked me if I was sure I wanted to do this :shock:

I just got a couple PM's and now it tells me who sent it and what the subject line is instead of just "You've Got PM" :shock:

Pretty sweet!

Would it be possible to return the logo at the top of the page to the old state, where it took you to www.pcasdr.org instead of forums.pcasdr.org?

+1, or at least both links. I love the new look and feel but I have been missing this main site link. Thanks! :)

Same here I liked the logo to be a link to the main page.

Question: How do I change the email address on my profile for private messages?

Martin, (and others who have asked)

After you are logged in click your name at the bottom left of the page under registered users.
This will bring up your user profile.
Click User control Panel above your Avatar and below Board index.
This page is where you can make and change all your settings.
Don't expect these to take effect 2 seconds later... it may take a while as long as the next day.
Click Profile and then account setting to change e-mail. (That has been our most popular request)

Poke around and check it out...

Hope that helps.

Cool new forum, good work web team. Is there a setting somewhere that can make links in postings open new tabs or new windows rather than navigate away from the PCASDR forum? I did not see it as a user preference.

Of course there is a way...
Just right click the link and select new window or new tab :wink:
