Topic: Has the look of this Message Board changed?

[Verla Kay]

You may have discovered that the look of this board has changed. That's because we are in the process of working towards giving this board longevity and a stability and financial security it has never had before. Please hang in there and bear with us as we continue to renovate the site towards this wonderful goal. It's very possible this new look you have will be temporary, and for that I REALLY apologize. I truly hate it when sites make major changes like this, but it's so important that we get this board to a place where YOU are all protected so that if anything happens to me and I can no longer take care of the site, someone else can easily and quickly take over -- so the board will stay alive and well and will continue to function properly.

Thanks for your understanding,

Verla Kay

LOL, Aimee! We mods and admins told her the same thing...but she's refusing to become a zombie for us. *stubborn*

Thank you for all your hard work, Verla!

I'm a newbie around here, but have very much appreciated the site. (And it's another great way to procrastinate.) Appreciate all your efforts, Verla and Zombie Verla.

I seriously thought my computer logged me out again. Phew!

It's a purty look though. Keep up the hard work. You deserve a medal.

No problemo. I rather like this new look. But yeah, whatever you have to do to keep the board going is good!

So can switch back to the style we were using before? Or do we have to wait for further notice? (I miss my blue sky and dandelions... )

It's all good with me, Verla. You're the best.

Rue, I miss that one too ... there are still others to choose from. I hunted for one that had the link to show unread posts since last visit. I think it's the next to the last one in the list .. and about 7 people are using it. There's also a GREEN version .. which cracks me up to have a green blue board. I'm using the one with the side bar.

Thank you, Verla, and please don't go away.

{In typical self-centered fashion I wondered if it was something *I* did... Phew!}

Exactly my first thought when I read Verla's message. Verla, you are a treasure. I really do appreciate you looking out for our interest. I would love to have you on my side in the event of a zombie apocalypse!

Thanks for everything you do, Verla. I've been a user of online forums since my early teens, but this board is the most welcoming & helpful virtual community I've ever belonged to.

I rather like this new look.

Me too! It was a surprise at first, but I actually prefer it to the usual design.

[YAScribe]

Thanks so much. Hope it all goes well!

Rue, wait until further notice.   The blue sky and dandelions were pretty, though!

I did panic a little when the page first came up, but as long as you all are here, I don't care what the design of the page looks like. Thanks, Verla, for giving us this safe place to meet.
