We recently upgraded the board so please let me know if you have any issues.

PS: I do know about the general formatting issues that I need to work out.

Take care,

Scott

It looks nice and seems to work pretty well. One thing I noticed is that "about me" on our profiles isn't on the main profile page any more. You have to click a tab to see it. I'm not sure it's going to be as intuitive for new users, a lot of whom have to be directed to profiles in the first place. A lot of us have our stories and some hopefully useful info there for people with similar health problems. Is there any way to put our "about me" stories back on the page you see when you click someone's name rather than off on a tab?

Thanks, and you're da bomb for keeping this board going!

The size of the NO AVATAR avatar is now larger than Rhode Island and Delaware. :rolleyes:

It looks like the Ghost of Boards Past is now staring out from some youtube posted next to each comment.

"hey look, here's another one of those old cranks who won't post a picture !"

I'd love to see a place under the avatar for a person's location to be listed (optional, not required) and no more than a couple of lines. It was there when I first joined but I know it got out of hand with a zillion lines shown for some members.

I agree. The giant green No Avatar is a little distracting.

It looks like a TV in need of replacing!

I believe it has been done to strongly encourage all to have some sort of picture. I like to change my Av often. Much as some change their hair style or color. Because I would not look good as a blonde and am too old to have pink or green hair, I change my av to fill that deep need inside me.

Personally I like the Mushroom House...it's just too cute! Pick out an image you like, email it to me and I'll resize it for you. :D

ETA: Or send me the link to the image...

It was probably file size, not picture size. you may need to compress the picture as, depending on what's in the picture, they may max out the file size while still being within the pixel size. (perhaps scott could adjust the file size limit a bit? it shouldn't need a big change)

Plus, I had finally gotten around to posting a picture awhile ago, and now it's gone and I have to go through that all again. Maybe that big ugly NO Avatar sign will speed up the process this time.

I fixed the size of the "No Avatar" image so that it isn't so big. I'll see what I can do about the "About Me" tab, and the location below the avatar.

Take care,

Scott

Scott, I am finding quite often (two or three times today) that when I check new content I am taken to the last post in the thread, often skipping over several new posts that are also unread and posted since I last checked. This seems to happen on a new page flipover.

Shroomie! What bee-u-ti-ful mushrooms!

Also, I have had that same problem but thought it might just be Maxi ( my iPad).

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By NanCel · Posted

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
