I get the reply screen centered on the screen. Could that be something in the "advanced" mode? I can only get "basic" on the Mac.
Is it still happening?

Gandalf is hard to see, but that's probably just the lighting on the original. Pictures also lose a bit when shrunk down.
See, easy enough! And it only took us...um...a little over an hour...

Why'd you change to just a.s.? Loved the Gaelic!
I could! Because the original (while beautiful) wasn't Tolkien and no one knew how to pronounce it and everyone who was here any length of time called me a.s. anyway.
And I was competing for shortest nick. I believe I may win that one!!

Be now FOREVER taken from my sight,

Nerdanel, you're having way too much fun with these new boards 
Glad you lost the _50. Maybe it can hook up with _drogo.

But how will we ever get used to Scout without B?
Oh, maybe _drogo, _50, and B can go form their own board?

But I count you blessed, Gimli son of Glóin: for your loss you suffer of your own free will, and you might have chosen otherwise. But you have not forsaken your companions, and the least reward that you shall have is that the memory of Lothlórien shall remain ever clear and unstained in your heart, and shall neither fade nor grow stale."

The latest guesstimate is late April/early May. The developer will have a better estimate in March when they start framing. Right now some of the finished units have begun to close and the pacing depends on how many 30-day punch-list items surface on the finished units that cause the workers to be pulled off the unfinished units.
My dilemma is that I've got a lease that expires on April 30, and an initial enquiry whether I can stay an extra month was met with some resistance. Chicago has a traditional May 1/October 1 leasing cycle, and staying an extra month will throw that off. But I think I'll be OK in the end. The landlord needs to make some repairs on my apartment and it needs to be painted, so they won't be able to rent it right away. I've made it clear that if I have to move out before my condo is done I won't be leaving before April 30,so they won't have enough time for someone to move in on May 1. I've tempted them with a full month's rent in May and ample time to make the updates they need, so I'm cautiously optimistic I'll be able to stay and close in early May.

This is my first post here on the new boards, and it's also sort-of a test to see what it all looks like, etc.
Congrats and thanks for all your hard work!

got a little lost along the way with all these new threads.
*raises glass to the new board architects and all the newbies here*
Is this one for the Asians amongst us? Or the devilishly clever?

I'm so fascinated by everyone's avatars, footers, etc. There's also a heap of unfamiliar nicks.
After all my complaining, I am sticking with Entwife Wandlimb, I suppose. I am rather fittingly slow to change!

Then, don't click on "user profile", but rather the thing below it, I think it's called something "settings". Go to the very bottom. If you're on Eastern Time put -5. If you're Central Time, put -6, Mountain -7, Pacific -8. If you're not in the US you'll have to check the FAQ 'cause I couldn't tell you.
