Just so you know, the BBFC will remain where it is and access to the Discussion board from it will resume when/if BB II starts.

Well, to put it bluntly Neil, please don't change the board! I love it just the way it is. First of all, we don't need all those bells and whistles. It just gets to confusing, it would limit the accessibility of the board to many. As far as the color, well, do what you want, but personally, I find the grey, easy on the eyes. And after all, isn't that all important? The other, more important thing, is that this nice soft gray tone, doesn't shout out to the really brashy people on the net, the ones that we feel very lucky not to be around, here in our special haven. The good people find us, and stay here because ..... it feels good.

You know, I own a simple 17 sq.ft.. two-door refrigerator. It is not a side by side, that spews water and ice cubes at you when you walk up to it. It doesn't even make ice cubes automatically! And you know what? I like it that way.

Here's to simplicity.

I agree. When we moved here from the old discussion board, I wanted it fairly simple, like the old board.

There are lots of bells whistles, but they are turned off and most will remain off.

I think the colors will remain the same, due in large part to what you just said. I'm always looking for ways to improve things, that's all, but I definitely like to keep it simple and familiar, without too many changes or fancy stuff!

ps: does everyone know my name is Neil or what?

I like the new Clubhouse site, I use it all the time now. (although it makes me constantly sing TVFunhouse!!! in my head... from SNL)
I am glad there is a place to say how impressed I am with this site. I have been here since the beginning, I just not an prolific poster. I recognize all the work that must go into running this site, and I think it is fabulous. I, too migrated from BBBlows., but it is probably YOUR fault I became an addict!

Forgottenlore--I thought I was the only one signing that goofy some inside my head over the past couple of days!!!! Glad someone else is sharing that experience. haha

Neil--the title of the thread pretty much says it all!!! I agree with the famous part--well, at least you are to a few thousand of us!

I agree with Tootsueg about the colors.

To answer your question in small print, I think the answer is YES!

Hey, Neil, it didn't take me long to figure out who you were. You have a lot of fans, that's for sure. I just wanted to say that this club is tops. I just joined this club a wk or so ago but was a three month lurker. I lived, breathed, and died by your live feeds cuz I am deaf and am not able to hear the live feeds. I am glad I finally joined for this reason only: if you are a newbie, that doesn't mean anything in this club. There are a lot of old timers but they don't have that "elite group" attitude like the Survivor and Big Brother Blows sites. It's very easy to fit in here and thanks for making it that way.

I love the new site. It has that lived in, friendly look because it has the same colors. :) Thanks for a great summer Neil.

I have a question and I'll put it here b/c others may have noticed this too.

When I created a shortcut I was unable to get the home page with the menu on the side. I can only get the frame to come up in a wide format. What is up with that?

The only way I can get the menu deal is to type in the address.

Jana...no. If I click the main page in the frame I get a shortcut to that. If I click ouside the frame I get a shortcut to just the border without the menu or frame! Odd. This does not happen to you I take it. Must be on my end and I cannot figure out why. It did not happen with the old board.

Fruitbat: I think your wording is messing with my head.

When you say "When I created a shortcut I was unable to get the home page with the menu on the side. I can only get the frame to come up in a wide format. " do you mean, when you 'right click' the discussion link, the discussion board comes up without the black frames on the top and side?
