    I know this is a minor change, but the entire forum description on the main forum page used to be links, now it's just the forum title. Kind of hard to get used to after clicking the description for so long.

    I don't see the Clutchfans favicon in my bookmarks toolbar anymore. Instead I see a different gray blue icon that looks nothing like the old one (it has a similar color to the color scheme of the new software). Can y'all change it back?

    Sorry about that ... should be fixed now.

    There may be other things like that ... I appreciate it you letting me know as you find them.

    I did not think about this because the site has always been bbs.clutchfans.net for me, but I also had .com pointing here. I just noticed that logging in at bbs.clutchfans.com did not work at all, so I've redirected all the .com loads of the board to .net. Hopefully that fixes the issue for many...

    The board layout looked entirely different for about an hour earlier today, but it appears to have gone back to normal now. During that hour, it gave you the ability to message other posters through their y! screen name, ICQ, etc.. this was listed under their username. I think the rep button was in the bottom left-hand corner as well.

    Is that what the board is moving toward, or will it keep it as is?

    Just us making adjustments to the new software. There were hundreds to be made today, so that stuff may have gotten out there a little too long.

    Some cool improvements. I like the arrow on quotes that will take you back to the quoted post. I don't know how many times I've seen a response and had to search backward to see the context of the previous statement.

    Not sure what Clutch's intentions are with the Community stuff. Do you talk about it somewhere?
