I just realized that we can view likes given and received! All from the old and new platform appear to be there.

Speaking of friends, what happened to our badges? Is there a new version somewhere? Or are they coming back and just haven't reappeared yet?

We're working toward getting those done as soon as possible!

Well, I haven't seen my badges yet so far, and do you know what? The sun still comes up in the morning and the birdies still sing! In the overall scheme of things, those aren't real high on my priority list....they'll get here when they get here.

Where are the uploaded pics in the albums that were previously in our profiles?

I think they are also working on this and they will return?

thats why i always crop mine LOL

There are a lot of good, easy print screen utilities. I just use the one built into recent versions of Windows, "snipping tool". Below you see the cropped section that I copied, along with the dialog box giving my options.

The print screen button defaults to cropping a section rather than a full screen capture, and a dialog box pops up that gives me options to save it, print it directly, open it in an image editor, e-mail it or other choices.
(if I hit ctrl+print screen, it does a full screen capture but gives the same choices).

It's painless.

Just practicing my "cropped" screen shot....
it's not as simple on a Mac...but I'm figuring it out.

Is there a new android app, or should we use a web browser on our hand held devices? I have the old app by Toddrick, I the last update was Sept. 2015. It defaults to loading a 404 not found page, and then I have to navigate several clicks to get to forum pages.

Last night I spent 10 minutes trying to log on with Firefox on my smart phone, it was difficult to find the logon screen (easy to find the new member sign up screen) and whenever I did manage to find that screen it failed and popped me to other sections, like the member page.
