    Facebook doesn't belong in this environment, and Twitter is a completely pointless waste of time IMO.

    I'd like to add my voice against facebook and twitter as well. They turn me away from a lot of other sites. (But then again, being a nerd doesn't require social behavior.)

    Just being a small part of a global community on this site provides more than enough of an opportunity to be socially interactive,
    without the need of additional ME-centric virtual technology and tools for self aggrandizement.
    Volume and repetition do not validate opinions forged in the absence of thought.

    Chrome should be fully supported. The file attachment in Chrome is a pain, the icons to attach don't work in chrome.

    Test it out with fonts in Windows set to a larger % than normal, some of us have to use the larger setting for our eyes and certain functions get scrambled or obscured due to the larger fonts.

    Wow, never noticed that but it's true! In Chrome when you want to attach a file you have to do it from a URL but in FF you can upload a file as well as from a URL.

    I would like an icon to insert any file not just jpg, why go through all the steps for other file types when image is right there?

    Just don't use Chrome, I am leery of Google's attempts at stealing personal information anyway.

    Have you checked for add-ons for Chrome? Seems the last time I gave Chrome a test, almost everything needed an add-on to function as well as FF or IE. And it WILL NOT clear out your cache files, there are third party add-ons, but even with that my cache and all other files were never completely removed. Google has a vested interest in forcing cookies to stay on your machine. Last I checked many were working on a third party solution.

    I’m relatively new to this site but have greatly appreciated it from my first visit. I’ve only recently gotten back in the AutoCAD game and CADTutor has been the biggest help of all. I haven’t posted till now because all of my Qs so far were already asked & answered. I honestly hadn’t thought about changing the site till this thread.

    The fish is obviously iconic and the color scheme matches it very well. Both are peaceful and help me concentrate (meditate?) on the information.

    I don’t use and don’t need Facebook or Twitter, and wonder if they might invite the wrong kind of input or activity?

    I’ve found Google to be such a powerful search tool that I’m not sure another search engine would be able to replace it. Perhaps the best thing would be to have a built-in option that is able to access Google’s power?

    Thanks to all who have worked so hard to make this site the already great resource it is. Keep it up! And, who knows, maybe somewhere along the way I’ll even be able to add something that will help someone else out.

    Well I would like Chrome to work the same as IE or FF. Simple as that.

    Like I stated, look for an add-on for Chrome.
