    I haven't seen the verification code here (yet!), so this might be irrelevant, but often they have a "Spoken version" which I tend to use even when I think I can read them they are often "different" to what I think I saw!!

    After being locked out again for a couple of days and new passwords I have managed to log in. I hope this doesn't happen again as I was getting more and more p***ed off as no one else seemed to have trouble. My Birthday, yesterday, wasn't noticed either, not that matters but I am less impressed with the new site than most.

    Strongy, I knew it was your birthday yesterday because there are several other people who share your birthday with you ... so a belated one on this forum from me. xx

    I find it odd that when I finally got logged on I had an option to change my screen ... I do not like this 'cold feel' Winter screen so changed to Autumn (choice of the four seasons). The following day I was back to this cold screen and now have no options ... why?

    This Week, I have been mostly liking, the New Posts button.

    Unlike the old one, it will let you come back to unread posts if you haven't replied to them :thumbsup:

    Most excelent :thumbsup:

    Unlike you Ziggy, I do not like the New Posts button because I have read what is there and have gone onto the delete what I have read and ... goodness sakes, it's still there but not in bold print ... is this one step forwards, two steps back ... ?

    Strongy, I've had problems logging in too (and I think Chopper is the other member who has complained about it).
    I've started a thread in the "Site Feedback/Bugs" section here:
    http://gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/Thread-Logging-On-Problem.html?pid=405309#pid405309

    Happy birthday by the way!

    Glad you pointed that out, I hadn't realised it was different. THanks.

    [hr]
    I made the assumption (dangerous that, I know) that the intention had been to change the Colour with the Seasons, and that it was only by accident that that became a user-choice (along with some other experimental styles if I remember it). So perhaps that is where we are now - colour will change with the seasons. (Although I think on the old one you could choose "Classic", or somesuch, or "New" - and then the imagery for "New" changed with the seasons. (Which might be an idea if people have difficultly with any particular colours - such as those with colour blindness )
