(...) That is what I don't get. I only post via the web. I do not like having to authenticate. <g> Could it be a result of the robotics mailing list? Why would a bounce have the same date/time stamp as my posted message? Jude (22 years ago, 8-Jun-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: a few new things
 
Well, I don't want to come off as overly combative on this issue but I think Suz's design was fine and absolutely heading in the right direction.

  Re: a few new things
 
(...) Ooops, sorry...... didn't mean to give that impression. There's nothing wrong with good design; quite the contrary. I was simply trying to suggest that the design I saw there appeared somewhat too business-like. Perhaps I can clarify with (...) (22 years ago, 7-Jun-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: a few new things
 
(...) How can someone take such a statement the wrong way? As far as I can tell, you are advocating BAD DESIGN as something that will somehow benefit new users -- in which case, I have to strongly disagree. Good design choices are to everyone's (...)

Suz: I'll start small and work my way in... While it's not a big issue - the use of CSS could help y'all maintain uniformity of appearance across all the pages of the site with a small, reusable bit of "code" -- but then again, I don't really see a (...)

  Re: Does lugnet have the right 'look and feel'?
