Now that everyone likes it, we can start complaining that Scott's avatar is still blue. ;):lol:

Reload the page, Carla. Scott has a new avatar. Once you see it, you will be glad it is NOT green. LOL.

The olive green is much better! Thanks, Scott!

My only other suggestion would be to make the print larger and darker for the many here who have vision problems. Even those of us without vision problems would appreciate it!

Thanks again.

Definitely getting eye strain with the new colors. On the bright side, this will keep me off this site at work. :P

It's all green and I don't have to use the lo-fi version anymore.

Thanks, Scott!

One problem for me is when I do a search, the box with the page number I'm looking at is only a very slightly darker shade of white than the rest that I can't tell what page I'm on so when I try to go to the next page I don't know which one to click. I'm sure we're all jumping at you with all these sugestions before you have a fair chance to get it all done. Thanks.

Yeah, I find myself about two inches from the screen because the font is so small and light, and I'm only 23, it's not like I need reading glasses. I'm sure I'll get used to the other stuff, and the darker greenis much more pleasant, but the small font is giving me a headache.

Each of you can adjust your own font size in your browser--

1) In IE click on the "Page" drop down, then select "Text Size." You can also zoom in and out to make everything larger.

2) In Firefox click the "View" drop down, the select "Text Size."

Each browser allow you to adjust these.

I hope this helps...

Take care,

Scott

Hmm I can't verify this, as I surf w/ a Sidekick, but doesn't this then make every other site's font too big?

I haven't heard of a 'Save Settings by Domain' feature in a browser.

I went to view - text size and the list of Gluten Free Items (on the left margin) got bigger, but the post page is the same. My e-mail is also larger as I changed the setting. Post pages remain the same.

Me too.

Scott, is there a reason the default font size is now size 1? (For those following along, previously it was 2.)

Also the link to the board rules/guidelines is missing. I know that we can always use a refresher reading those so I hope that it is put back into place so folks don't forget the manner in which we should behave here at glutenfreeforum.com .

Since the change, I have noticed a difference in the way hyperlinks work. When I post a hyperlink, not only is it not blue (this was also true before the upgrade), it is not underlined. The underline will only show when I mouse over the text where I put the link. So now I have to hilight the text, make it underlined, and make it blue. Not a huge deal, but I like to use a lot of links in my posts :huh: If I don't specifically say "this is a link" people might not know one was there.

Is this by design, or an I doing something wrong?

Other than that, I like the new look. I am already used to it.

Thanks Scott,

I'm beginning to appreciate the changes already. Green is my favorite color. :)

The first shade of green was way too bright for my eyes...the new shade is much better!

Thanks for increasing the font size as well. :)

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
