OK, the DG has changed again, but can we bring back.....

[Doug Wright]

The quality of the presentation via Blackberry has degraded somewhat for what surely must be for some unfathomable technical reason.

Phil,

I thought I was the only one crazy enough to try to read this website on a Blackberry...

[Phil Benedict]

Doug,

It's even worse.  Occasionally I post from my Blackberry, which is incredibly time-consuming.  Usually it's while commuting when I've got nothing better to do, but it's still sick.  We probably should have kept our dirty little secret.

[Bryan Izatt]

Lots of changes for the better, but can someone tell me if they can see and use the BBC buttons for bolding etc described in the Help section.  I get the smileys but no buttons when I open a new topic or a reply.  Do you have to set a parameter to see them or are they not enabled on this board?

Phil and Doug:

The Blackberry browser stinks.  I have had much better results with the Opera Mini browser.  It works great on GCA.com, including the DG.  I almost never use the Blackberry browser any more.  Using your Blackberry browser, go to operamini.com for a free download.

A big thank you to Ran & Ben and the site designer for the improvement of the Search function.

Much easier to use, much more efficient.

[Steve_Lovett]

The site is a piece of cake on the iPhone...

[John Foley]

Ed - Thanks for the tip on the Opera mini for the Blackberry - highly recomend it!!

The new feature that I hate is posting a reply only to have it not posted and a red message come up warning me that other responses had been made that I might wish to review first.

Just post the *#%^ thing. Don't hassle me with this.

[Kalen Braley]

I'm not a big fan of this either Garland...

I've found on more than one occasion when it comes up in the new page with the red warning, that when I again select post, the site hangs and then I lose my post. 

So for now, everytime this happens, I always make sure to copy my post to the clipboard just in case so I can always re-enter the thread and paste it in without having to re-type it.   

[Garland Bayley]

And what's with that 60 minute time limit on login?

[Craig Van Egmond]

Garland,

            Check the always stay logged on box....

[Garland Bayley]

Yes Craig, I know I can do that. It is just that the old time limit worked out quite well for me. On the pacific coast I joined the party late, and by the time it automatically logged me out, the party was essentially over for the day.

[Craig Van Egmond]

Apparently 60 minutes is the default as opposed to the 360 minutes on the old software. I'm sure if you asked nicely, Chris Sutton the administrator would change it.

[Craig Van Egmond]

So can you not look at other peoples profiles anymore?   Is this a new feature?

 yea, I don't get this elimination, especially this cheeky preprogrammed reply . . .

             "Many apologies, but you can't view just any profile. "

[Garland Bayley]

Does the website not put your outgoing IMs in the outbox anymore?

[Andrew Mitchell]

Does the website not put your outgoing IMs in the outbox anymore?

Garland

Only if you tick the box to say you want it to.  I sent the same IM three times to one person before I spotted the box.  I thought the system wasn't working

Andrew,

Better yet, there is now an option in your profile that you can choose to have all messages saved. No need to bcc yourself.
