And I will pull up steaks and leave..and NOT SHOP HERE because the community is so hard to use! People in threads are all trying to figure out how to add to or change the forum coding for color and how to get rid of the cheap looking stars etc... why is that, "powers that be"?? Why do WE THE USERS have to try and fix your mess so WE can use it?? So.. like all other things in life, the CONSUMER has no say? and the thing is now SLOWER than it was before! I have DSL and others that have DSL also note the slower speed. I have seen other Bondware sites...they are by FAR more classy and easy on the eyes, fast and easy to use. Why can't the grand daddy of this company's sites have a nice site? I lived at this place more than any other forum, shopped here a lot over the past years...but I swear if the Galleries go this route - ugly and slow, I am going to delete my account - which includes NOT SHOPPING. Money talks folks!

I don't know. I've been speaking with my money from the start. I rarely buy from here for that reason and I rarely post here for the same. The fact that I don't post or shop is ranked right up there with the " JD who? ". I'm not about to spend a fortune here to establish myself into a " Oh ... THAT JD @c@ " just so I can say " Ah Yes ME JD. " so that that extent, your voice may carry a bit over the seas, but mine never did. :p I pop in once in a great while when someone puts a link up in chat. No one ever posts links here from the forum I hang out in the most, can't say why or speculate ... just an observation. I think the back-biting is another thing that keeps folks like me out ... but that's another really old subject. :p It would be nice to think you stance will make a difference, and you have my blessings. But the reality of it is that blazing is easier and chances are someone thinks the new decore is a good idea. JD - spoke with is money long ago, barely a whisper in the winds :p

Taking in mind the lot on angry responses and the (almost) silence fro Rosity, I'm afraid they are too much occupied playing with their new toy to answer...

Just remember that when you vote with your money.. sure you're hurting Rosity.. a bit. Like how much a mosquito hurt a man. But you're hurting the individual merchants tenfold more. And sure the merchants can just choose to sell elsewhere... But please bear in mind that we, the merchants, are as affected by this change as everybody else. And many of us (perhaps even most of us) don't like it either.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA

Well if the Merchants banded together and yelled loud enough??? You are right though..and I WILL keep that in mind..maybe only coming here for shopping once in a while...but it just will cut down on my shopping and eliminate any spontainious buys... sorry but... In another thread they are posting to tell us users how to change the CSS coding thing and my dyslexia cannot handle that and I posted: Geeze....me and my dyslexic brain will NOT be doing this and WHY WHY WHY DO WE HAVE TO REWRITE WHAT THE FORUM PEOPLE DID???? DOESN'T ANYONE SEE SOMETHING ODD ABOUT ALL THIS??? ----------------------- Really...maybe it will have to be the merchants to get something really BIG done? I don't know.

Hi Lyne, I'm sure that one of the members in that thread regarding the color style sheets would be glad to help you get your settings the way you'd like if you ask them. Since we originally wanted to keep the default colors uniformed, the style sheets were set up so that at least there would be the option to change if you so desire.

I have DSL and I find this site to be quite a bit faster since the switch to PHP! I wish people would quit putting words in other peoples mouths about this switch over also. If someone doesn't like it they can speak for themselves...other than that it is hear say and in some cases just not true. Please don't put words in my mouth!
There are 10 kinds of people: Those who know binary, and those who don't.
A whiner is about as useful as a one-legged man at an arse kicking contest.

I think the speed all depends on what time of day you arrive here and just what folk in other time zones are doing.The cross over between the UK time zone and the US time zone(s) can cause quite a slowdown.
