I'd be completely shocked if Deno's or Luna closed down (even if just for a new buyer). . . both of these places (tho in Luna's case, it's more the name than the actual site itself - although the Cyclone is technically onsite at Luna Park, isn't it?) are historic, and Iconic. no way would these disappear. Community or Preservation folks would step in to save them. just my feeling on it.

For my trip reports (since I tend to type a lot), I almost always created them in Word, and then copied over. The only time I ever used the "save draft" was because it took so long to upload pics on the old version - 20 at a time. So would save in between to make sure "internet Gremlins" didn't eat my post. As you said, with the excellent new Drag/Drop option? that's no longer going to be an issue. So yeah, big thumbs up on the improvement. -

hard to see in those pics, but as you'd expect nothing less from Disney? the wrappers are stamped with "Tokyo Disney Resort" and Purple Pumpkins. a fun little Halloween bonus! -

^ really stands out now. (tho I was under the impression that if I were to "tag" someone, as I did in the original post that was used as an example), it would alert that person. . . so if you didn't get an alert? it wasn't you tagged). regardless, it really stands out in that green color! -

I'm glad you mentioned this! I figured there were settings to not have the forum look so "dark". . but I've had no luck finding where "themes" are to adjust. can you advise where to go to change theme? -

There's a limit? is that my setting I can adjust? or TPR site? (was trying to "like" Canobie's trip report post) -

what is this "Member's Reputation" metric ? is it based on how many "likes" a post gets or something? Oh, and just getting to play in Messages section, and it looks like we now have a limit of 50 messages? Actually, I don't know if that's a "limit" or it just notifies you. . . but since been on TPR since 2011, I have ~548 messages, and I'm seeing the following at the top of the page: so not sure if any kind of issue, or anything even to address. .but I noticed it, so mentioning for your awareness. -

AHA. . it animates when I hold my Mouse over your Avatar. so it's static unless I'm hovering over it. Then I see the bumping I'm used to seeing. but you can put the Gif in your signature, right? -

Really like the updates that I've played around with thus far, Robb. I don't really do much on my phone, and tend to mainly come to TPR on my Desktop, but the changes look great on that system. A little bit of learning curve for me (I be dum with the computery stuff ) but hell, if I can figure out how to quote and insert stuff? Then pretty much anyone should be able to. The only thing that's been "hinky" for me that I've noticed thus far? When quoting a post that contains a quoted post? I seem to lose the original post that was included and only see the response from the 2nd person. but that absolutely is likely a user error on my part. Will continue experimenting and see if I can figure out what I'm doing wrong there. but my feedback thus far? -
We've lost a lot of folks in the past couple of weeks. Tho to me, biggest loss has been Eddie Van Halen. R.I.P.

my Heart is breaking for those Disney Castmembers who are being affected sounds like some areas are being very hard hit. Hopefully when the parks reopen, many will be rehired (I suspect the mass layoff is mainly to get the numbers off the books for the fiscal year). Still it's a terrible time for things like this to happen. I understand it, but still very sad about it.

sorry to hear, but glad you're feeling better today!
