New server, New Skin!
Thank you for all your feedback so far :) I am very happy to see so much positive feedback! I didn't expect such a large acceptance as a skin change is always something which can confuse people but most times everyone gets used to it after a short while. Again, thank you for all your feedback - no matter if positive or negative ;)

Hi, while the chat may affect the posting the few first days it will be very helpful later. Have a look at the online users and you will notice many guests. The chat could help them to "check out" who's hanging here and possbly make them become a member of the forums. Also.. it's always the same with chats - while its new its hot, but later it's just a chat. Saw this many times before so don't worry too much - it's well hidden anyways :)

Could you explain? Just tested a post on your profile and it seems to work fine. Maybe your ISP hasn't fully updated DNS and you try to access functions from the old server? Tip: Start > Run and type ipconfig /flushdns This would solve such issues

New server, New Skin!
Hi, I would like to comment on the recent changed too so everybody understands what's going on. First of all it was no easy choice to select a new skin because many people are used to the old one and it's hard to get used to something new. We all know some people will love it others will hate it, but believe me it's all about getting used to and that can take some time. I am sure some will not be entirely happy but please give us a chance, as it's not the skin why you are here - it's the great community and the content. We had long talks about the new skin and there are many reasons why we decided to go for it. I will name a few: The new skin is more brandable, more light-weight and much more expandable. Additionally a new skin is great because YOU can get involved to help us make it even nicer. We plan to run contests to add something spicy to the logo (like some nice BJ logo at the left of the "we entertain you" text etc. There will be contests about this soon and the prize will be Amazon Gift certificates or itunes certs. We basically want to make sure to bring BuzzJack to the next level so here is what's coming up: - Chat Room - Chat in realtime with your friends - Social Networking News System All members will be able to submit their favorite news which will show up at the front page! Additionally the news will be available on sites like Google News and up to 50.000 other web sites! Imagine this: Your news on thousands of web sites - all linking back to BJ and our forums. That will bring many new members and will make this place better than ever before! - User blogs: Have your own blog hosted on our server - Show others what you currently think about, let them comment on your thoughts! - many more useful additions like a video profile in your profile page (you can record a webcam video / audio and other members can view it on your profile) All that said, please don't be mad and give us the chance to expand and to take BJ to the next level! In the end we are doing all this for YOU, because you are important - we just provide the place. Think about BJ like Digg.com - They provide the basics and functions but YOU provide what makes Digg the largest user-powered news portal. We want to reach the same: Providing the basics, but you are in the middle of everything. I hope you all understand the changes and please give us a chance to make all this work. In the end it's all done for YOU and all other members. Note: There will be many contests soon where you can win cool prizes :) Also, since we have a new chat room we will open a new enrollment topic in case you are interested to become a chat mod! Thank you for your attention

space bar absent...
I have fixed the scroll bar but there is still a little issue left which will be fixed soon. However, the scollbar works again and the related issue (scrollbar always shows) will be fixed asap as I'm on it already :) Sorry for the issue, it came up because I was fixing all the javascript errors so I didn't look at the scrollbar and focused on the js errors :)

@Josh Good question :) A very wide ranke but mostly music from singers / bands who perform live better than on a CD/DVD. I'll name a few examples in random order: Linkin Park (live better than on CD) Anastacia (also live better than on CD) Evanescence (only cause of the sound - I think they suck live) Robert Miles (children - oh the old times....) Phil Collins (the real wow-effect live) Tracy Chapman (the old ones more than the new ones) Eric Clapton Joe Cocker (not everything) Metallica (the slow songs and a hand full of the harder ones) Xavier Naidoo (just a few selected songs) A few classic / opera like soundtracks like the soundtrack from Gladiator (movie) Falco (only a few from the out of the dark album) Gnarls Barkley (only Crazy) Madonna (confessions album only) Well I guess you can see it's really more various than anything else :)

It's a long story :) Love can make you do strange things (like moving there just to be with your love) and that's what I did. Being in the IT business most of my clients are from the US so there was never any issue, except if you want to order something in a restaurant lol

Oh I guess Ill have to clear that up :) I recently moved to spain (a few months ago) so I don't really speak the spanish yet lol - While I lived in the Netherlands (wife's country) I never learned dutch cause its so hard - yet I can understand people cause the language I normally speak is very similar to dutch :P However I really prefer to speak english because you improve it with every line you type / read
