You are correct. The offset was not being correctly applied to the "Replying to:" date/time (a local variable was invalidating a global). We'll have a fix out in a few weeks -- thanks!

Does Edmund's allow multiple screen names for one poster?

Hosts any other suggestions for deleting that empty photo album??? I've tried everything I've been told by you guys and fellow members and none of it is working.

Well, a new low by stevedebi

I was just on the "Mystery Car" forum, and the entire forum has text disappearing on the right margin. Previous to this, the right margin stopped when the various pictures and text ended, but now it appears that the entire right side is blocked with white space.

"I agree with your entire post. Unfortunately it's all been said before, and as much notice will be taken now as it was then.
With everything so massively subdivided, the chances of someone searching Google and getting a link to Edmunds are much greater than with the earlier format.
It's all about generating fresh page hits, and more hits equals more advertising dollars. "
 
I'm not sure I concur with you about Google; they follow all links on the pages, so they would have indexed all the pages in either the new or old format.
 
Your post makes me sad, because I too used to REALLY enjoy the site, learned a lot, and (hopefully) shared my knowledge. I wonder how long it takes for a site to coast to a dead end, where everyone asks questions and no one answers, except maybe the hosts?
 
Two things:
 
1. I find it interesting that no Hosts responded to either of our posts.
 
2. So far as hits go, anyone using Firefox can disable that stuff by using NoScript. It kind of makes me wonder how many people upset by the changes are not allowing the advertising on their browser.

Even though the hosts keep telling members, especially in the Mystery Car discussion, that big photos skew our pages, people continue to do so. Our software can't automagically resize them so we either have to let them roll off the page or delete the whole post.
 
That's in the FAQ too, if anyone wants to read the directions. (Yeah, I know, dream on).

The reason no hosts have responded to the posts (although I am doing so here) is that we do not control that aspect of Edmunds.com. This is not to say that concerns aren't noted by those who do have control, but there's no sense us commenting on areas where we have no expertise or control.
