Glad someone does so far all we've heard are negative comments. It's not finalized yet and colors will revert to what they were but the over all looks is here to stay for awhile.

The new layout gets my vote.  I really don't care which colors are used but this has a much more efficient look to it.  Thanks!

There's a My Messages button in the row of blue buttons near the top of the page, just below the upper news bar. ;)

The new is fine but so was the old one. I'll be glad when the colors change as these bother my eyes.

It is definitely faster. No more twiddling my thumbs waiting for things to load.

I like it, and it seems 10 times faster for some reason.  Way to go!!!!

Another thumbs-up. But I come here for the content--so looks don't matter much to me.

Yes you can get messages from the button But
you was able to see if you had a new mesage without
going to the messages to check.

Am noticing, for the first time, that the 2nd post in every new post is an advertising banner provided by GBO. 

Grrrrrrr.....isn't the Internet wonderful?  Don't know what we would do without advertisers.

Want me to tell ya? We'd shut the site down and find something else to occupy our time. Without them this site would not exist and that's a fact. It costs a LOT of money to operate this site each year and I do not have the income being retired to foot that bill from my other income so site revenue from advertisers is the ONLY reason this site is here.

I'll certainly vote yes for it. It is a LOT faster.

Boss - I like the way you and Matt have set up the new 'look'.  I think it is faster.  I also like the banners beneath every first post - they sure catch the eye. 

I am also very grateful for the advertisers here.  I have found them to be great sources of supplies and information and I have gone to using them pretty much exclusively. 

Thanks Boss, I appreciate your efforts.  Mikey.
