LOVE THEM! I always make sure I catch the "new posts" to catch up on the news but sometimes I miss a few if the forums are busy or I'm away a couple of days. I just logged on now and saw bright and shiny new RED icons that tell me how many new posts are in a post! Very helpful!!!

Thank you for all that you do to make this site easy to navigate and find stuff (now if only I had more hours in the day to really comment on all the posts like our good friend Sally does). 

You rock!!! clap

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

I love them too!  I always feel bad if I miss someone's post, especially after all the support I have received from this community.😀

Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016.  Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016.  Lung mets August 25, 2016.  Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016.   Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.  

Wherever they are, they are together.

YES! This is a great addition!!! Thank yoi!!!

AND...now thos is probably a tavlet thing....but when I am in the process of typing my replies, the print is bolder,blacker, much easier to read!!! It really pops out!

When I hit submit it goes back to the more faded, not bold, print though. Sooo...just curious and I've wondered this since the big overall last year.. ...on "real computers" Do your colors pop out or are they all more muted, more faded? So faded in fact, mh old "new message" thing was pale yellow.

And the Admin Guy is saying, "Huh??"

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

Got that right... winker Definitely sounds like a tavlet display issue. See if you have contrast settings or if it is any better when plugged in.
