    Did something change on the website? Looks like the search bar changed and maybe something else.

    **update**

    Ahh, the quick links is no longer there.

    Yea, the quick links drop down menu. It was right next to the search bar up there at the top. Here's a pic from my dear friend ZoSoIV.

    LOL, yea me to, I never used it. I test server hardware and software all day long, so I pay close attention to detail. Something just didn't look right.

    Haha, excellent, thought how it would take until someone notices the change :)

    The G-powered search engine also changed a bit -- now you can "drill down" the query to specific section, like "Forums", "News", etc from the result page.

    We might shock you tomorrow tho, got some extra changes coming up to forums ;-) Nothing major technically, but some layout stuff we want to test..

    And yes, nobody used the quick link bar, so we got rid of it and instead, opted for a bigger search box (and branded it with Google logo, as they sorta demanded us to do so :).

    The Eye of Goodswipe now turns to aD, the last free forum of tech junkies.

    Sweet, I will be waiting to see what you guys do!


    Yea, I just didn't have much use for that function. If I need to go somewhere, I just clicked the link within the forum.

    Now then... That's classy. I like the new look very much. My browser wasn't quite sure what to make of it for the first 2 or 3 page changes.. must be shock ;) New button skins. Nice.

    use your big toes as that is what the doctors use when a thumb needs to be replaced.
