Looks good...nice job Sean, one thing I can't seem to find, other than on the first page of the site is the link to the chat pages, is located anywhere other than on the front page, I don't normally come in through the front page and it is no longer located in the menu bar, at least as far as I can see.

Thanks again Sean.

sean,

I am using the lastest java and cannot get into the chatroom anymore since you redid the site. K64 Amd chip and a gig of ram should be enough horsepower to get in there.

It's sure come a long way since Sept. 2004.

I like the "View Posts in the last 6, 12, 24 hours, 2, 3 days etc."

Thanks for the comments everyone, just woke up here in NZ and am glad the new look is working out. Also thanks for the usability feedback, I'll be addressing all of that today..

Nice job Sean. As far as galleries I miss a quick link, too. It's one of the first thing I look at when coming to the site. I'd suggest though something like the number of posts since last visit link - XXX new images since last visit. Saves calling up the gallery if theres nothing new to see, may even save some bandwidth in the doing.

I like it!

I too would like to see a quicker way to see the galleries. My usual workflow (play-flow?) is to click on new posts then to click on the galleries button to see the new images. Call be super lazy, but I would rather see something faster than the community-->galleries pulldown.

I like it very much. The new logo is excellent, the site seems easy to navigate (at least to the places I frequent), and the Dr. Bob quote is a great finishing touch.

I have made the header links in the left side bar active, so where it says "Latest Gallery Photo" if you click that text it will take you directly to the gallery, maybe that is an ok workaround?

Sean I want to say thanks for all the time and effort you put into this site. It truly benefits us all. Nice job with the upgrades. Definitely an improvement but at the same time the new look isn't too difficult to pick up for those accustomed to the old design.

Good tweaking job!

After living with the new logo for a few hours I've decided...I like it. From a distance it reads just like I say it, "A Pug", instead of "A-P-U-G" like it used to.

Thanks!!

Murray

Very nice upgrade Sean.
With a new logo could we maybe get embroidery pathes made to go along with the T shirts and baseball caps to sew it on a photovest?

Thanks for the effort Greg

Another small kink.
Received PM on logon (I bookmark directly into the main Forum page). Read the PM. Went into subforums and everytime I went back to the main forum page the java application announced that same message. I had to reload the page to clear it.

Your work on this is very impressive Sean!
Thanks,
James

missing links

Love the new look but I seem to be missing some links.
I clicked on the "drop down" menus and all I get the current page moves down, but no menu drops down. I can't even find the log off button!
I'm on an iMac running Mac OS 9.0.4 using IE (for Mac) 5.1.7
ya, ya, I'll upgrade one of these decades...

Can someone help me out here?
