As you can see we have upgraded ti the new VB4, we will be cleaning it up and making it better for all.
Get used to the new features and the many more to come.

Enjoy and talk about the changes we all learn today.

Boy that's old. Hugh Cornwell left the band in 89.
Still, IMO, the greatest band ever.
Thanks Les!

You might want to give instruction on the front page on where you want us to put what?
We're used to using the forums for everything. You've now given us blogs & articles as well which I think is a good idea, let us know how you want us to use them properly to help organize the site.

Nice look to the new TCM ... Though what I did like with the old was the list of the latest post , Is that gone now with the new version ? I don't see it any where .

Wow, what a difference - looks great!, and congrats Deb and Les for making this a smooth transition :bsu:

As other have said, it will take some getting used to. I'm still playing around with it to see where things are.

I suppose there are some things (e.g. shoutbox, themes etc.) that will be added in due course.

One question I have though, is what is the difference between "blog this post" and using the "reply - go advanced". It seems to me they both do the same thing? :rrg:

Hey Bogie - How'd you switch to Advanced mode?

Love the new look ... ! Seems to be easier on the eyes!

You must have auto log in all the time ? I manually clean out my cookies and when that happen I have to always re enter the log in info .

I use CCleaner and I prevent my TCM cookie from being deleted when deleting cookies, history, and whatnot.

I really like the new 'look', and haven't had any major problems so far, except for not being able to post, which was fixed ASAP. One thing I am wondering about though is there a way I can set it to 'advanced mode' in my profile or elsewhere??
Great job Les and Deb !!:cool:
