   T,

   When I reply to a post I get a "Comments are closed." box that blocks the lower 1/4 of the text box for the reply.

   Probably something you’re aware of, but just in case….

   Oh well.  Back to 1/2 width.  We’ll just work around the construction!  ;)

   No – it’s still messed up. This is fixed – but now other pages are broken…

   Joe, the new forum software should be out by the end of next week. It’s a significant upgrade and it does include a very easy to use PM function. Once I’ve got that up, I’ll attempt to give temporary access to folks who would like to view their PMs from the previous software.

   I might be able to get the previous software running this weekend – we’ll see.

   Thanks for the update T.

   Cool.

   And the info on the right side now?  Gone or relocated?

   That’s going to be fixed – the forum will take up the whole page.

   I like it.  Looks great.  Only issue I can see is that moderately sized pics would run WAYY of the board (think of the sportsline.com 1024×768 pics!) – unless that’s a hint not to post pictures that damned big!

    I’m changing the look of the page every week until he wins.

    I’m kidding.

    TB, that probably won’t be an option for a couple of reasons. First, uploading photos takes up server space. Second, it introduces some security risks.

    If you want to post a photo, follow this method:

    Go to:

    http://www.imageshack.us

    Upload your photo.

    Once it’s uploaded, you’ll get a page with a bunch of ways to post it.
    Go all the way to the very bottom, where it says "Direct link to
    image".

    Copy the information that will look something like this:

    http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/3763/bgheaderov0.jpg

    Go back to the forum, start your post. Click on the tree button. Paste
    the image location in the box and click "Insert".

    Welcome to the newly formatted Fred Couples Homepage. This new format will provide more flexibility and, hopefully, a better experience for the users. Please feel free to comment on anything you see that could be improved.

    Joe, I’m working on fixing a couple of formatting issues, including the PM section.

    I’m also expecting a new version of the forum software very soon and it will integrate a PM function, like the old forum.
