Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19226 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on Apr 25 2011 07:32 PM I've revamped the PM system a bit and it just went live for a testing period. Please try it out when you get a chance: http://surfguitar101.com/messages/beta/ It uses a lot of fancy browser javascript so I am particularly interested if you have problems running it in your browser. I've tried it in Firefox and Chrome under Linux. Thanks! — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

The numbers didn't stay, nor did the formatting. I didn't expect the formatting to keep, but the numbers... that was important. Runs great, but then again I'm running Chromium, which is Javascript browser numbero uno. Top

I hope you don't mind if I delete that. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site? SG101 FAQ - Send me a private message - Email me "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea Top

If I ever found myself on the English throne I would immediately abolish the institution. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

Now you can read PM's without leaving the inbox. Less loading. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?
