MY page is completely off kilter... I dont even have a header and I have to scroll all the way down to find the posts...My page is all white with light blue text in the middle of the page...

Sounds like they have problems this morning... I am sure it will be back to normal soon...

Just a gliche on their end...

Yep, a real big mess. Couldn't get on earlier, but now even my bookmark works and gets me right to the quilting and needlework bd. Some things are larger. Maybe if they do this again they could worn us ahead of time. Ya think?

Mine is kinda funky too. I can see the avatars better. I should have know they were "fixing" things again though because the last few times I've been on here, I've had to log in.

Mine is acting weird also. I see words on top of words & lines in places they should not be. If I check out the tread "It's for the Birds Mug Rug Swap", there is a post smack dab in the middle from emb115724 that has nothing to do with the mug rug thread. And look how humungus my avitar is. The little graemilins aren't working either.

It looks like the avatars that come from the HGTV board, the ones they show you when you first sign up, are still okay. And so are the ones from the HGTV-related site: http://e-design-it.com/avatars.

But the avatars that are made from people's other links or photos are the ones that are blown up.

It was my avatar that was enormous. So I went to Personal and changed my settings so I don't see anyone's avatar or signature. Cleaned up a lot of the mess. I sure didn't like seeing my pink heart on half the screen!

LOL HGTV has several scripting issues!!

The thing bothering me the most tho, is, reading a post and then it not changing the blue color to show it is read! I depend on that, never can remember what I have read until I open it again, and sure is slow going.
