I've been registered here on the forms for a while now. I see the new website has now taken over from the old. Do I need to re-register as a new member for the new website? The new website can not find my email that my user name and password are under.

The new website can not find my email that my user name and password are under. For the new main mngca.org site, you do not need to register. All of the pages are viewable for anyone that visits the site. If a MnGCA board in the future decides to create pages only viewable to registered members, it may require registration... but, at this point, you do not. For retaining membership in the MnGCA, there will be a google form that will go live within one week of the Fall Event and elections... more info regarding that coming soon....

I appreciate all of the effort in moving the forums, it's long overdue. But I have to admit, I hate this ProBoard option. The ads are obnoxious, there is no navigation at the bottom of the page (that I can find), and the avatars take up too much space.

There is an ad free option that is relatively cheap ($5/month) and may be something the board looks into. I'll look into whether the avatars can be reduced in size (bear in mind I am not crazy techy type of person)... the main thing was to get it up and running and to tweak from there.

I completely understand. Tough for me to complain when I don't volunteer here. But I do have a background in software usability and so far I have a running list of things I'd love to see changed.

Feel free to pm me with your list.... no promises as to what you are seeking can/will be done, but we are always looking for input. I played with the avatar size a little based on their info on how to change it, but I wasn't happy with the way it looked... it cut off the pics on the side and bottom instead of resizing... But, then again, I went into the "advance users only" section, of which I am not, lol.

there is no navigation at the bottom of the page (that I can find) When you are on the "home" page (not in a particular thread), at the bottom of the page there are a few choices, such as "Recent threads", "recent posts", "mark all boards read" ... don't know if that is what you are looking for...
