Battle with IE and Donations
Just wanted to give everyone a few updates:
#1. Internet Explorer 6 has had trouble with the current layout and theme since launching WSO. Firefox displays the site how it is supposed to be displayed, but unfortunately many people at work still use IE6 so I thought we could develop a separate, simpler theme for people using IE6 (or if they are at work). I wish we had thought of this solution earlier...
Although I don't think all of the kinks are worked out, when you log into the site using IE6, you should now see a new theme called Blue Marine that should make navigating around the site much easier. It is also much simpler and will probably garner less attention at work. By tomorrow, IE7 should be back on the wallstreetoasis theme, but IE6 will remain on Blue Marine for the indefinite future so that people using that browser can still navigate around the site without columns jumping into the middle of the screen or getting squished.
Note, if you are logged out, you still may be seeing the wallstreetoasis theme since anonymous users see cached pages. You need to register or log in to see the Blue Marine theme.
#2. After receiving encouragement from a few users, I had my web developer install a Donation module for the site at http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/donations
(lower right hand corner of the yellow navigation bar). If you are logged in and use Paypal, the module should list your username on that page if you donate. If you feel like the site has helped you and/or you are feeling generous, we would greatly appreciate any donations to help keep the site running strong. Donations will be used to help continue adding new features to the site and help the community stay active with new, interesting content and lively discussions. There are literally endless items on my TO DO list, and most of them require web developers, graphic designers, marketers and writers.
Whether you have any $ to spare or not, I want you all to know I will not rest until WallStreetOasis.com is the most useful AND entertaining finance community online.
That is all for now. Stay tuned for the Winter Newsletter and a new "User Table" here http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/usertable (still needs a lot of work) that will eventually allow logged in users to filter and search for other users much easier.
Stay Strong,
Patrick
Thank you, this is much more pleasant to navigate. There is a reason why "Craigslist.org" is so popular: thanks to its simplicity.

Thanks, this works very well.
