New Look and Feel on the Way!

Reply Contact

Greetings, Connection members and guests! We've begun the process of implementing a new look and feel on the site, hopefully to bring a fresh look and easier-to-use design. We'll be changing site elements over the next day or so, so keep your eyes open for what's new, and definitely let us know your thoughts.

And of course - if something looks not quite right, give it a few minutes - we're probably just switching something over.

Stay tuned!

Looks really good - hope that teenage boy isn't too offended.

Yes, poor guy! He's been our faithful Connection greeter for over a year, and we're very sad to see him go. He'll always be with us, though - I imagine we'll keep a spot for him on the homepage somewhere...

I like it a lot! And reducing the number of images makes the site load much faster.

Even better than the streamlined look and feel, which is certainly nice, you seemed to have fixed (intentionally or unintentionally!) whatever it was that prevented logging in and posting with Opera Mini, so The Connection now seems fully functional with mobile devices! (Though I'd still love to see a mobile friendly version someday!) This post brought to you by Opera Mini... Wink

Ah, nevermind. Looks like I was already logged in with a different Passport. Now I should be back to normal. Cool.

I love the "Got Expertise to Share? This week's most-viewed unresolved support issue is ...." below the breadcrumbs near the top of the page. That will really help to make sure a larger group of people will see issues, and hopefully get them resolved. Very Nice Touch! Smile
