    Give them a chance old chap,i remember when we had to leave the original KTBEU site,the original home of MI6,and i was copying and pasting all the good threads before the site was shut off,onto the new site,i had wrist ache for days but i got them on here,and it looked strange then to me !!

    But the site we were using until today was just a prototype,and new things will be introduced and the site will really take off soon :)>-

    Clearing the cache in my browser really helped as that was how the site was meant to work! Thank you, James Page for that tip as I am not the most tech-savvy in the world. I think I'll survive the changeover now! And of course this is not the first time that there has been change on this community; we indeed do well to bear that in mind as Barry says above. :)

    We just flipped the front page to show Latest Discussions by default.

    You can access the old fashioned By Category page by clicking the Categories link at the top of the left hand side bar.

    Thought I'd show my appreciation and make this wallpaper dedicated to the new design. :)

    Wow, even posted pictures are decreased in size once quoted to prevent a lagging on the thread pages. Very nice!

    Actually, I just found a smaller pic on google images to save space ;)

    Excellent, @Murdock! I like the nice little touch of the gun attached to the "Y" in Community, too. B-)

    I think Patrick Jane would hate this place. Some of the default profile images look similar to Red John's smiley face...

    Yes, mine is the only one that makes sense.

    Yes, Brady, I've just been watching many episodes of The Mentalist. I thought of that, too. :) (and here is my smiley face ...)

    I still do not like the font - but things are faster and once my glitches are resolved (I cannot edit, for one) I'm sure I will get more used to it. Really glad the most recent discussions now come up; thanks @JamesPage and all admins. I did refresh my browser, by the way; thanks for that tip, too.

    I think that it would be better if the profile was on the right side but, this looks alright, it should take a while to get used to it but interesting change :)

    Your profile image is of Green John's smiley face, but Patrick only faces him in an alternate reality during season 5.
