How do we think he will react on his return from the Cartoon Festival?

I don't like it - I couldn't remember my user name - you almost lost me forever.

Diane, if you're any good with image manipulation (Photoshop, GIMP), feel free to change the theme. I'll send you the files and you can mess with them. If you can use FTP, you can even upload them yourself.

Oh, I sure didn’t mean that I didn’t like your forum format Mince, only that I didn’t like the fact that I couldn’t remember my username and was almost lost from visiting and posting on your digital masterpiece each day.

No, we would all be lost without you, I can’t even imagine the level of brilliance it would take to keep this site tweaked, the super-human technical skills you possess are nothing short of genius.

Mincey, I like it.  It looks more modern.  I especially like being able to see the page numbers (the previous version hid them because of the wallpaper).  It's even nicer on the iPhone.

Thank you for your efforts in looking after us all.  You don't get much praise for all your work, naming no names.

Diane, you surprised me. I never took you for a crawler!  ;)

Lucy says it's too yellow. I noticed Mince had used a brighter yellow, and have to agree I felt the same way at first sight.

I'll turn it into the best forum you've all ever seen - as soon as Doctor Who wins Wimbledon.

I like it... it's more roomy.

Although yellow it seems crisper than before.

I like yellow-flavoured crisps.

I agree with Bilthehut. The forum looks sleek and modern.  The background is not distracting.

I like it the more I return to it. (Must stop drinking.)

Diane is no crawler. The queen of irony could never be a crawler.

I rather like it.  It's easier to read.  Not too keen on the pink, though.  Never did like ordinary pink much.  Shocking's ok.
