The New VST



Recommended Posts

Okay, so I'm feeling out the new vertical sleeve talk and the first thing I noticed is that it is very ...... feminine, in appearance now. Doesn't that leave the fellas out a bit? I'm willing to say that there are probably plenty of guys out there who don't mind the pink and dusty rose color palette, but the art icon next to each forum is of a distinctly feminine form, subtly suggesting that this entire site is really meant only for women. It would be a shame to start making male sleevers feel as though this isn't the place for them, they are already in the minority for support available.

Good point, as a guy I can relate to what you're saying smile.gif We're planning to provide our members with a few skins they can select to use for our site. I know some are definitely more manly than the current one in use. It should be available in the top right hand corner of the web site in a few weeks.

So far, I'm not a fan. I loved just being able to hit "NEW POST" and BAM I had the forum broken down for easy access. I'm sure it'll take some time for me to get comfortable with all the changes, BUT so far, I'm just kind of trying to navigate through the changes.

Do not care for this new forum. The other was very easy to navigate. I could hit a button called New Posts and automatically find them. It took me 5 minutes to figure out to his the RSS feed.

Also how do I update my signature? Its not under settings.

Congrats on the upgrade, but please include instructions.

I believe what you're speaking of is still available. There is a "View New Content" link just below the Search bar at the top of the page. Let me know if this is what you're looking for!

I agree I miss the old site. Maybe it will just take a while to get used to but things just dont line up on the screen correctly its kinda like some one was coloring out side the lines(I duno might be my pc but???) I also miss the new post button but I think I found a way around that. There are more things I an not a huge fan about but I will reserve those thoughts untill I become more firmiliar with the new format and maybe some of them will go away.

Question: Is that Chatrooms down below going to be our new chatroom? :-/ Not sure I'm really digging that.

Other than that have really no complaints. It's all new and will just take a while to figure everything out. I'm sure I can do that.

You just have to push the view new content button in the upper right and corner and that's the "new posts" button. It's not bad just takes some getting used to.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
