Good to see you again Chris; hope you and the Missus are well! Give it some time to get used to the forum's new format - it's not vastly different and is still evolving so exercise some of your legendary patience mate (and this is coming from me - probably the least techie person on the forum!)

Nice to hear from you again Chris. Stick around mate, it will get familiar pretty quickly…..if you move, then anywhere else will be different as well, but at least you’ve got mates here that will help you when you need it.

Nice to see you back Chris, the forum has changed, but it’s not that much different. Just give it a try.

Welcome back Chris, very glad you're still here!
Cheers, Steven

[Geoffers]

Glad to hear your sticking around and giving the new set up a try Chris 😊

I think we’ve all found it a bit daunting to start with but as everyone has said it’s not that different really and we are all here to help (muddling through together 😂)

Geoff.

Great to see you Chris, if you need help just shout.

Glad to see you back. A PC that goes on you is never fun. Glad that you got fixed up in the end.
As far as the new software goes it is pretty much the same as the old old. Yes it looks different. but workings wish almost identical.
You can write a post, answer other's posts, post pictures. You can even multi quote lol. It just needs a few tries and its there. All those begging you to come join them did not even try, they just gave up. They even told the place they went to that it was because it had become to hard to use here. Then started to ask for help there "How do you do....." all the things they claimed they could not do here because...bla!

I am sure there are many here that will help if you hit a bump in the road. A good thread to read would be the one by John explaining how the picture posting works. It was quite an ordeal at first and scared a lot of people off. Now it is just as easy as before.

Welcome back Chris. Not sure what you use your computer for but if it's mainly for surfing the net etc then I strongly recommend a Chromebook. They are much cheaper to buy. I changed to a chrome book this year and absolutely love it. Well worth speaking to someone in the know before your rush out and buy a new lap top. Please give the new site a chance. I actually like it now that things are settling down and hopefully it wont need to change for many years to come.
