I give up, what is "Rep Power"?

Edit: Never mind, I went to the vBulletin support site and read up on it.

Nice work Mike. I also see that everyone sees our age now too.. I think I'm basically ok with that.. I don't particularly like that "location" is broken into two lines for many of us though.

and Sharon? Even cranky, we still love you.

You'll be happy to hear that I've become the expert on obsolete technology here at work. Telephones, pagers, DOS, typewriters (really!) FAX, two-way radio (and FCC wrangling that goes with it..)

It all comes to me...

yes and I think I can globally turn it on and anyone who hasn't set it to not display will have it displayed

So we lost the thanks history?
Boo...

'couple more little things.

does the "thanks" button really have to use the facebook "thumbs up" icon? 'cause this ain't facebook.. :)

Also,

If you visit the forum without being logged in, there's a message at the top intended for new users. It's grey type on a yellow background. it is difficult to read, and doesn't really fit our theme.. if it is something that can be changed, maybe just go with a white background? Since the links on it are white, they'd probably need to be changed to bold grey or something.

Oh come on, I can't believe anyone even paid attention to the thanks history, I never noticed it before, but I'm sure you and your "I only have complaints" friend can go around and re-thank everyone from before to get your thanks-counts up. You two probably remember how many you had. :) I'll work on the forum message but not on top of the list, thanks. Oh and the thanks thumb is from the mod-maker not me so I can't help you there.

I'm pretty sure my thanks-o-meter was about 2230 or so.. Feel free to start me there. :D :D I guess I'll just have to get used to the thumb-icon.

also, if you get tired of me pointing out all of these little things, feel free to say so and I'll knock it off. My web design buddies all ask me to look for stuff like that, then immediately regret it. :)

I reworked the COTM and advertising banners. Not exactly what I wanted but they are up for now anyways.

Everything seems to be centered, instead of left justified now. Was that intentional?

OK, should be better now?

HTML is not my favorite code and sometimes I forget and get some code tags mixed up. I really need to study more on CSS and HTML5 to be more efficient.

Supermike, I'm having some issues with the thanks button. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It seems like if I am in a thread and do a thanks, I'll get an ! error message if I try to thank someone else in that thread. However, sometimes it happens the first time I try to do a thanks. Obviously not a high priority matter, and also inconsistent, so could be just me! :) Seriously, can't wait til I get a new puter.
