I am using Google Chrome on my Mac - I googled Adblock and it added straight away to Chrome.  Did ask for a donation which I have not done until I make sure it works.  No download - just added.  Cant remember if this works on PC but if you hit Control (Command on the Mac) and the Plus sign it will increase the size of the whole page making it easier to read.

I know the ads pay for hosting BUT I hate the embedded ads.
I am finding not having Tapatalk and the new set up annoying as I am using an ipad.
May be I will get used to it.

I'd be happy to pay a subscription to pay for the forum.  Who else would?
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Thank you Admin and MM.
I would pay a subscription but that may make it difficult for new members. Not sure.
Anyway things are being sorted and tweaked. Just like our Thermomix cooking!

Well, all I can say is I opened up this morning (after about a week - we have been away) and said "wow"  ;)
I love it  :D :D :D
Nice, sleek and modern.  ;D

I've never paid for Adblock Deniser.

I've just done the Command + and what a difference to the font size.  Perfect now for me, thankyou.  ;D

Also I love how I can Preview my post now before posting.  I couldn't do that with the old system, could only see one line and had to scroll down line by line to check what I'd written.  Now I can see the whole post and photo if I've posted one.  :D

I most certainly wouldn't want to pay a subscription for obvious reasons and I'm sure MM doesn't intend going down that path.  You might have given him some ideas now though girls  ;)

The general consensus of opinion is positive, it takes a little while to get used to but I surprised myself for an old codger, got the hang of it very quickly.  I'm sure we'll be thrown a few curved balls as moderators though when problems arise. Hopefully there won't be too many problems and will stay on air a bit more successfully than we have been lately.

Chookies crispy fish batter - delicious! This photo I chose from my photo album on the iPad and didn't have to convert at all - just doing a happy dance!

I'm a fairly happy chappy now that I can use Tapatalk for my photos. The thing that is really annoying me now is the embedded ads. You think there is another post to read and it's an ad.
For Mr Admin and MM here is a screen shot.

May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
