The Threads I have read no longer go from bold to normal. They are always BOLD. Is there some way to adjust so we can tell threads we have read from those that haven't been read?
Thanks

I think the bolded threads are threads that you have not visited or threads that have new posts in them since the last time you have looked at them. Could this be one of the reasons you have bolded threads?? :scratch

Chris,
I thought that too, so I went to the 'old' board to verify. What happened, is any thread I looked at would change from blue-ish to light red-ish (I am no expert on colors). It would stay that way for days / weeks. So I always knew what threads I'd read. Even if new posts were added after I read the thread.
Since it still works on the 'old' board, but not on this one, I deduce that it is a board option setting not my computer.

Maybe the old cookie is corrupted from the old board?? I have heard their could be problems of that nature. Have you tried clearing your cookies/cache and then logging in again to see if the problem presists?? :scratch

Is that one the electric companies use? It does look familiar. :scratch

In the old days they did, at least in my area. I don't know if he is still used elsewhere. My daddy retired from the Iowa Electric Light and Power Company, that's how I knew about Reddy. :)

It works for me, have you tried refreshing your screen? Sometimes I have to do that.

I have a set of about 8 Reddy Killowatt .gif thumbnails that I found searching Electric Co. history......My Dad retired from Duquesne Light in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Including one they used when they opened their first nuclear reactor.
I got the nickname first when I started as an electronic tech. (we won't go into why) Then I associated the graphic to it.
I will try dumping all cookies......Just to keep this post on thread http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/mittelgrosse/medium-smiley-064.gif
Thanks
