    I am still using my original desktop icon.

    The problem with me was I was told my User Name and/or Password was incorrect ... on several occasions ... well up to five times at a go and then I was blocked out. In the end, I logged in on the same User Name / Password I had been entering all along. :confused: Who am I to question computers. :rolleyes:

    I did send a notification of this problem as I thought perhaps it had something to do with my Password only having three characters and normally five is required.

    Nice to see a few more user-friendly icons and characters have appeared. I do appreciate it will take time ... but we'll get there eventually. :)

    Before, after posting, the back arrow didn't work properly and would keep returning to your text editor, that really used to annoy me, but now it works just fine. Happy with the new software so far :thumb: ( I'm claiming this smiley as my own)

    I agree with you Paul the old style was much better or that maybe because it was more nicer on the eye but I have used this style before so there shouldn't be a huge problem getting used to it.Finger crossed!Hel.xxx

    Yippee :thumb: it worked!!:D


    Hope they hurry up with getting the logo sorted and warmer colours for the page. It's a bit impersonal at the moment.

    We'll all get used to it soon but I think that different size fonts and a variety of coloured fonts may get a bit much after a while. Maybe I'm just a boring old fart!!! :p:p
