  1. I like the new skin it's a nice change over the default one. I was pleasantly surprised when logging in. :)
  2. Poor Mike you had to do advanced calculations by hand. :D I couldn't of gotten through Algebra 1 without my scientific calculator once I learned how to use to the parenthesis function it was a humongous time saver. My math teacher and I would always argue because I'd never show my work on homework. I explained that since I always aced the weekly quizzes where we couldn't use calculators I must know what I'm doing and the calculator was only a time saver for ungraded homework. ;) Back when you were a kid, Calculators were probably a big thing I betcha not many kids had one. Nowadays they're so common place that no one ever talks about them and some states (NY inclued) allow calculator use on part of the state math exams.
  3. No issues with remember me here on Firefox across all three platforms.
  4. Big Dan posted a post in a topic in Water Cooler
    From an end user standpoint, I really like how the editor toolbars slide in when you click in the Fast Reply field. A similar action happens when you edit a post. It feels a lot slicker than vBulletin's quick reply and edit tools. The only thing I really don't like about the default layout is the new topic and reply buttons are right aligned..We read from left to right. I suppose that can just be changed in a template though. Just my .02, Dan
  5. I think of social media as an emerging fad. In that it's still a new toy and everyone is jumping on the bandwagon but in a couple more years it will be more common place than it is now and not a whole lot of people will be talking about it. Sort of like when our generation (Brandon & I) went to school. All the cool and/or rich kids had cell phones, they were the coolest thing to have now you'd hard pressed to find a high schooler without a cell phone. New technology hits critical mass when older people start adopting it. I don't know about you but I see a lot of my old teachers on Facebook. :)
  6. Nice to see you here Shelly. :)
  7. Thanks for the offer Brandon. Sorry I missed this and it appears I accidentally voted down your post. LOL I tried the demo over @ IPB site but with only 24 hours I didn't get enough time to fully look around; once I get some free time I might ahve to take you up on that offer.
  8. Howdy Mike. :) I'm gettin' to play around with IPB a bit, not sure if I want to invest in a license yet as it is now I've got 2 unused vB licenses.
  9. http://www.twitter.com/DanHutter Just checking out the IPB side of things. :)
