Question As you can see, the Icons are back!

Encore? Debut? Good idea? Wise use of BB? If/when FT has a "slow day", won't this make it worse? I'm kind of indifferent, but...

I don't mind the icons but the member info is pretty cluttered. And I'm wary of how the new look will weather those inevitable site slowdowns...

Question

So why doesn't it remember when I registered. I am sure that the computer and I both knew at one time. Did it dump registration dates at some point along the way??

Not having a date can be construed as a mark of honor(?), as if you registered prior to some date in late 98 or early 99, no dates were then registered.

So, No date = One of the Original Flyertalkers

Or so I believe.

I'm wondering if we will all get carried away with the using of the icons. I like the member info. It reminds us of where we are all from....

I like the member information, especially the reminder of where my fellow travelers are from. I like the icons; they make the site a little more colorful.

Have those of you on dial up modems noticed a speed difference?

Doc, I'm so glad to hear you are evaluating the "wise use" of the BB!

Hmmm I like it. Especially (as was said) the ability to see where everyone is based. It is good soI can see who has the same issues and esepcially if they fly the same airport

Me like, too. But I'd much rather know each posters airline and elite level for each post than where they are from, but I'll take what I can get. Especially since I am so new to these boards, having debuted just last November!

kokonutz, how did you make the "stick out your tongue" icon? I know you are new to the boards but I'd really appreciate your help!

Ok, let me be the first (and maybe the only). I'm sick of these things already. Our nice easy to read forum is starting to look like a comic strip!
