Does it still do html?

oh, yeah! Great job, everyone! And a quick tour through the chat room found a couple of friends. I'll try the translation page later. Those are usually a hoot--everyone, get your 501 ? Verbs (? = you name the language) handy. Verb tenses and pronouns should keep us chuckling.

Wow, this is swell, Max. HUGE improvement. I've got things now I wasn't even wishing for. :)

I actually miss typing linebreaks, though. :(

Mind, you only lose the BS, assuming you want to do so, if it's marked BS - unlike this BS thread we are on now.

I assume the chatroom is blank because noone is in it.And since nobody is in, it's not worth going in... I expect what will happen is that people will use ordinary threads to arrange to meet up in the chatroom, and then others will join in. And some day we'll get the radio back. After all, we are living in the new millennium.

Nope, Mr. Happy, you have not offended me. But I am still drawing a blank page when I go to Mudchat. Can't scroll up. Can't scroll down. Just blank!

khandu, mcgath, jerry rasmussen,

i tried mugchat too! i was there all alone. you all came in then went out again without saying anything- have i offended everyone?

to talk, you need to move the page up so that the dialogue box is visible, then you can say 'hello' or anything else.

But, it does look promising.

This 'Cat is your 'Cat, this 'Cat is my 'Cat,
Max, Pene, Clones -- I'm tipping my hat!
I'd include a 'blue clicky' just to try the dohickey,
But there's no place I want to link this to.

All corners of the earth,
Hail the new 'Cat's birth!
I'm gonna check the new
Long sought-for preview
And see if the 'line breaks' really works.

I tried and I tested;
Critics should be arrested!
BR's, I won't miss 'em,
The upgraders, I could kiss 'em!
This 'Cat was made for me and you!

No line breaks?

I bet it doesn't really work (but I'm sure it does).

This is a test! And according to preview, it WORKS!

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

I think that it will be very difficult for new users to understand.

The top of the page is very confusing, and I'll expect lots of queries for songs already in the DT to appear.

Lots of good new features, but user friendliness has been sacrificed, in order to better cater for the experienced user

A shame

Nic job, everybody. The automatic linebreaks are great.

Not sure I approve of the automatic blickifier (I had to learn, why can't everybody else ....)

Hoo-ha! I just previews my message!

Thanks, Max et al.!

Look next to the name of the poster where you used to be able to click up all their old posts. You still can, but you can ALSO click a link that opens a PM to them! See? That lil PM clicky?

Didja find the non-BS setting yet? Look up your membership info.

Not got it here yet, but looking forward to it.

I unnderstand a perfectionist nature, but in this case, I think that 'jumping in' is much better than promises.

Thanks to Pene and others too.
