Oh, dear, it seems that the owners of this site have tampered with a classic. They are spurning the All-Posters and thumbing their loyalty in our noses!!! Do they not even care? What would Walt say? HOW DARE THEY CHANGE LP! Who do they think they are? Doobie has ruined my childhood!!! I'll just have to stop by city hall and write them a letter...a STERNLY written letter and maybe, maybe they'll listen to me!!! Or I'll just stop buying things made by LP, THAT will show them!!!


(what is this tongue doing planted firmly in my cheek?)

I miss the topics on the left, too. I liked how I could see the next few topics and click straight thru to them.

Better watch it. Some Imagineer with 1000 years experience might start throwing pictures of Woody Woodpecker on the masthead. Just ignore it. It'll be fine.

It's still there, just on top on the opposite side.

Is there a way to make it have its own scroll down or stay stationary while the middle has its own ability to scroll down? That way I wouldn't have to scroll up and down to see the next few threads.

I just am so used to the liosting on the left hand side that this will take some getting used to.

It's a simple fix. I wish I knew how to tell you how to do it, but I don't know.

Oohh! I've been wondering this for a while! It would be real nice to have a seperate enabled scrolling section for the "select a topic" - it would make it much easier to jump around.

The biggest issue is the size of the boards. I hope the gray bars on the sides are temporary.

On the plus side - - Glad to see IKEA as an advertiser!
