Okie, occasionally, when I click the navigation bar at the bottom of a thread, the skin preferance changes. I've noticed it mostly in the Flame forum. It happens when I leave the flame forum via the bottom navigation links to the Main Forums page. Just a glitch I'm sure, no biggie, just thought you would like to know.

Some forums use different skins. Is thios what you are referring to?

No, it changes the skins in forums that I have already been in but just when I use the navigation links at the bottom of posts.

Mine does that every now and then, but then again, I get all kinds of little freaky things depending on where I'm surfing from. Read my thread about "Interesting Com-Pu-Tor Quirks" or something like that in this forum.
The thread with the poll about membership fees just started showing new posts yesterday but there aren't. I have to keep track in my head who was the last poster and how many posts there were or else I keep checking it and finding that nothing new has been added to that thread. That's just one of several little quirks I come across. I've learned to live with'em!:D

Keep in mind polls show new "posts" when someone votes.. Is that what you're referring to?

As far as the skin change, I just spent several minutes trying to duplicate the problem. Didn't do it. Not sure how it would be doing it, who knows :think

Maybe.

It would have to be that someone voted but didn't post. The other thing that happens to me is threads that are stuck to the top will show a new post periodically when there's not. No biggie, I'm used to it. (I'm used to being utterly dumbfounded by computers!:uh: )
