Susan Wise Bauer Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 We're going to keep the other boards up for the time being, but I hope most of you will decide to move on over here and create a profile for yourself. I'll be checking in regularly too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moodasz Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Ewww! Change is sooo hard (she said with her whiniest voice!) Great time to change screen names - ed's daughter is no longer...it's moodasz! Question - is there any way to see more than 10 messages at a time, so the pages aren't so short and have to be flipped more often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Question - is there any way to see more than 10 messages at a time, so the pages aren't so short and have to be flipped more often? I "think" if you go up and click on User CP and then click user options you can change the number of posts per page. I think. I'm going to try it myself.

Krista in LA Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Change is hard but often good, so I'm going to try to adjust. I do like having the pictures, and some of the other options, like editing. It will just take some time to get used to it. Thanks for having these forums.

MommyX8 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I love the next board. I typically didn't talk much on the other board as threads would get buried. Now posts will be bumped into view. Many thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hen Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I like the new boards, tho it's going to take a while to get used to...funny how we fight change. I used to think the old boards were hard to use, then I got comfortable with it. I like being able to associate a photo or image with a name, lots of fun! now off to see if I can get a photo in my avatar, I am a computer klutz... See- I did do a signature thing!! (you have no idea how long that took me!!) I used to be Jenny in Ca- now, I'm.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
