Users guide & updates - chip - 03-19-2026
Welcome to the new forum!
A few updates as of 3/19/2026 -
I update the default display to show 20 thread per page. You can change the value yourself on your user control panel. (User CP the second menu at the top)
I also update the default icons to be a little more intuitive, based on your feedback. Here's where we are at the moment. If I make more changes I'll try to keep this up-to-date.
Forum Icon Guide
Here's a quick reference for the icons you'll see as you browse.

Thanks much, @chip- I'm getting pretty comfortable with the new setup. I hope that we don't lose too many posters in the crossover.

Thanks, Chip!

For a little while, https://cherylsnowball.com/discuss/ will now point to the old discussion board. I'll try to keep it available in case we need to retrieve something or look something up.
