We are back

[Cindy]

OK people the new site is here.

[Skyler]

woooooooo 

[Raelynn]

There is a popup that requires username and password.  I cannot remember my password!!!  now I need to reset it.  I have tried to use the login screen, but it says I don't exist!

[Skyler]

We are working on resolving the problem please wait patiently

[Raelynn]

Figured it out and got it reset, but still having the authentication required pop-up!  All I had to do was hit cancel on the pop-up and it lets me around until the next page.

BEAUTIFUL site BTW!!!  GREAT WORK!!!

[Cindy]

Bear with us fixing a few issues, trying to find the bugs.

The front page of the new site is wonderful and I can see myself coming here even more often if you are going to be covering transgender issues that are in the news.

One small thing is that there appears to be some rendering issues when using the forums - just minor things like the bullet points for the "Home Help Search..." links wandering around and not behaving.

Very beautiful redesign all considered!

Please clear your cache to fix this problem with the "bullets" !

OR close down all of your browsers and relaunch them.

I was wondering what was going on I'm glad it wasn't a hacker attack or anything malicious

[enigmaticrorschach]

omg! looks so weird from my phone. everything is like smashed together. I can still read and comment but it doesn't look the same. actually it's a look better for my phone. I like a lot

[ainsley]

like like!

[Emily R]

Fantastic!!  I really like the new concept and graphics!!!

But if I may ask, is there any way to open the website maybe by using a different URL where the graphics can be eliminated or more toned down similar in appearance to the old website?  I sometimes like to look around in an environment that would not be receptive to all of the new and beautiful graphics.

Any suggestions will be appreciated, otherwise I will not be able to come here as often during the day.

No, but you can use adblock on the logo and not show it at all.

Ok everyone, it's been a long night (12+ hours) gonna hit the hay. Looking forward to seeing all of your comments when I get back in 8 hours or so.

Make sure you spend some time reading all of the wonderful content on the front page! Seriously! A big thanks to the News Staff for putting it all together!

Tell your friends, tell your enemies, tell strangers on the street to come to this site! Oh make sure you like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter!

Thanks!

Question: Many forums offer multiple "skins" to allow users to further tailor the look and feel of the site. Are there any plans to do that? Currently the new site seems to be a very fixed width and wastes almost 40% of my browser screen space as "dead space". I understand if there is no such option, but another skin that would allow people to make use of the full browser space (I have a 24 inch wide screen monitor) would be appreciated. If not, I'll manage.

Very nice redesign! Aside from the "squishiness" factor, I like it a lot!

[FriendsCallMeChris]

Wow!  What a makeover! Nice!!

The best thing so far? Having the full Susan's Girl at the top of the page!
