For those of you wondering how to do the whole avatar thing, I followed the directions from this post as I couldn't figure it out on my own!: You have to upload your avie to a photo sharing site like www.photobucket.com It is free so that is no big deal. Once you get your avie uploaded, display your PB album. Click on your prospective avie. That will display your avie full screen. On the right side of the screen there will be a window called "Links". The second line down is a line called "Direct Link". Click on the website address for this line. That is the URL this forum software is looking for.

I don't know anything about the drama or the moderators doing wonky stuff with the posts, but I don't want to lose out on any good information/discussions/etc so I'll try it, too. I'm bad at change though... so not sure if I'll stick with it.

Hello Everyone!
I had a revision from LB to VSG in Aug. 2010. It's all the things the band promised me without the bad stuff that I had with the band (sliming, vomiting, pain, etc). Even though I'm in Washington State, I had my surgeries when I lived in the DFW area.
I wish everyone health and happiness (along with weightloss!) in 2012.

Over from OH, too. But, I have not been reading OH too much, and missed any drama. I like having the option of different places to look!

yay I'm glad to see a new board. Left OH last week in fit of disgust and realized you can't reactivate once you deactivate. lol It's just as well I'm not into confrontation and drama. I had surgery in June and am loving my sleeve. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Hey, guys! I'm here. I don't post much anymore, but I'll check in from time to time. I changed my avatar, but you know me as Sniffles... Merry Christmas, everybody!

@beswitched: Ha Ha! Actually it refers to the Looney Tunes character "Sniffles". Do you remember Sniffles the mouse? He talked and talked without taking a breath and never shut up. So.... Sniffles is my husband's nickname for me! 'some hubby! Way to be subtle! LOL!!!

I gotta say... I'm not really crazy about the set up on this web page. I don't really like the layout. I like our other website better. What do you guys like better about this one? I don't think this one is as user friendly as the other.

Well... after surfing the mainboard here for a little while, I see that this website is a reaction to some crap that went down on OH. Over-moderating it appears? I take it this site is a work in progress.

Well... after surfing the mainboard here for a little while, I see that this website is a reaction to some crap that went down on OH. Over-moderating it appears? I take it this site is a work in progress. Bingo & bingo. It's a temp site till the real site gets up and running. Everyone has their own reasons for being here, mine are pretty much the same as many here- and I posted a few of my recent gripes on the main board over here and over there before I pulled my own plug.. wasn't planning to, but trying to keep jumping through their hoops as they moved them got tiresome.. Stick around, it's going to be an interesting evolution! When have you ever been in on the beginning of a great new NOT-FOR-PROFIT start up I actually like the layout of Proboards, you know the most recent post is always at the bottom, no scrolling through huge threads to see if someone replied somewhere back on page 2! Just have to quote the person you're replying to so they know.. but again, this is a temporary home.

I'm couch-potato-ing it today. It's nice to have a day off to just do whatever the hell I want. I've just spent the last few hours surfing OH and here getting the back story on the bruhaha... I'm pretty much up to speed now. Maneuvering within this new site is just different and will take a little time to get used to.
