    This is the second blank post in a row. Did you write something? Maybe there is a site glitch?

    No glitch, this is how questions look using the new skin. I understand that 50% of new members are being shown the new skin when joining.

    Result looks great huh?

    RE: the new skin. This doesn't make sense to me that half the new folks get the skin and the rest don't. What do the new folks know compared to us. We have been here for years and could says its better or not helpful. I think it is not helpful since I have to un learn how to use the old skin and learn the new one without a set of instructions.

    I refuse to use the new one. I just don't see the benefit. Looks weird, works weird.

    Hard to read, wasted real estate on each side.

    I don't mind the Light version, but rather old brown and blue version.

    Admin thinks it is the greatest thing since bubble gum.

    Admin is aware that I think it is blob of gum on my shoe.

    At least we have the option of which version we want to use, for now.

    Perhaps Steve will get that we need more info to answer his question.

    Thanks TK, I did not know I had an option. A few moments spent on my settings and I have the old AMHD bach again. Steve we need to know what you want to do to wire the tub. We usually don't start from scratch tell us where you are at with the project.
