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).

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
