Petal, whilst your here, did you find you can drag n drop smileys and pics on the new boards or do you have to find somewhere to host them like pukobucket?

So, posters can either post with the formatting and other options ready to hand, but have to have their pics hosted to post them, or they can drag and drop but only using the html tab?

That's not too good if it is.

Why oh do they have to mess about with things.  As I've said before, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

They had no choice.

The contract with LiveWorld was coming to an end: either LW or eBay did not want to renew it and so eBay had to find another platform provider.

As they have done this, inevitably the way things work have to change too and eBay took the decision to 'move' into what they considered was a more 'exciting' platform and service.

It may not suit many of us, but then eBay also want to encourage new growth. Whether the new platform is the answer remains to be seen but for now - all those of us who are trying can do is to find out and share as much info as possible.

The Canadian forums are up and running and have ironed out some wrinkles already for the rest of the world, so many are really trying to get this to work.

I'm sure changes will be made to accommodate the needs of the eBay Community which is very different to their other customers.

We is vehry speshul - we are unique and we have always been one of the first, and almost certainly the biggest and the best.
