That's better than "Joanie Loves Huitzitlpochtli (sp)"!

Well, I guess we managed to get around the login system somehow Kris. All I did was follow Sheena's advice. LOL So it's all her fault. Image

IMO, while you're adopting changes, I would look into a more modern, more user-friendly interface than the one currently being used on this site.

It's aggravating navigating this site, with its chopped-up pages, inability to handle sign-in cookies, poor use of images, etc.

But hey, I'm an infrequent poster, so I know my opinion doesn't carry a lot of weight...

But this is a gear page, right? Sure is tough to have detailed discussions about gear when you can't post decent images of that gear...

Patrick, this site handles sign-in cookies perfectly. Once I set my profile for this, it never asked me to log in manually again for my usual machine.

I am hopeful that Discus Pro 5.0 will have a better search engine too, at least nesting two deep and not one.

I didn't know about the change until yesterday when I couldn't get in. I admit to being only half a** computer literate, so it took me a while to get here.

Glad you could find your way, Jim.

Patrick, your comments are appreciated and carefully considered independently of the number of posts you make. I am sorry that you find the format inconvenient.

With regard to detailed photos, I would argue that meaningful information can be obtained within the current constraints. I offer the following as an example.

Thanks, Peter. I love the RickResource Forum, and have obtained a lot of information here. I appreciate all the hard work you put into it, even if it has cost me $$ satisfying my Rick GAS.
P.S. Is it possible to obtain a print of the "Rickenbacker Reign" painting by John Derry on the Resource homepage?

Ahh, the only thing that bugs me is that capitalized 'Official' in the opening statement! Otherwise, the new format is great!

Im very embarrassed to even suggest this,, but oh well.....Image
