Faint Newsletter Headlines

May 13, 2013

Well, we've done it again. Regular readers will notice the changes on the website. We have changed the colors (got rid of the awful green), and you may now "reply" to comments rather than just starting your own thread.

Also, we are now optimized for your phone or tablet viewing. If you're reading this right now on a mobile device, go head and turn your device 90 degrees (we'll wait). Did you see how the page reorganizes to keep the content easy to access? Nifty.

The good people at Metro Publisher (the people who developed and manage the software in our site) tell us that a new version is coming out in a few months, and there will probably be opportunities for change then, too.

We are always looking to make the site look better, especially if that translates into easier reading. We hope you like it.

We'd love to hear about your experience on the site. (Do you like the new color scheme?). Go ahead and comment right here on this blog post.
