So how are you guys liking the new software. Myself the only problem I have is I forget all the time when going to watched threads remembering to right click and open in a new tab. I always left click and replace the tab I am in otherwise seems ok to me.

So I rode my scooter out to my mailbox on this cool and rainy day (it's over half a mile from my house over dirt and gravel paths) and happened to get there as my mail lady was delivering my istick 50W and my iStick 30W from Rocky Mountain Vapor. The 50W has the plus and minus buttons on a different surface from the power button which to me is better than having them on the same surface. The power level scrolling is the most sensible I've seen... a constant speed which is neither too slow nor too fast. I'm impressed with the iStick 50W so far! Haven't opened up the iStick 30W yet, which has the plus and minus buttons on the same surface as the power button but I'm confident it will be a decent mod at the very least.

Coming back into the house, I saw this fellow camped out in the vertical edge of the storm door. He agreed to be photographed. In the picture it appears that he's horizontal but he's actually vertical. There's enough gap between the storm door and the jamb that he doesn't get squished when the door closes.

you'll get used to it. I open all threads, and pretty much everything in separate tabs.

You can set it not to. In preferences I think. there is a box to click for each thing to not get emails about it.

Neat frog Dave.

I don't know how to put him in the box with the others, but if you right click and do save as, and put him on your desk top or something, you can either drag and drop him, or do upload file and click full image. You can also just drag him to the desktop to save him.

your link shows as
<broken to show the links>
https: //www .e-cigarette-forum .com/forum/threads/older-folks-and-vaping-back-porch-part-three
It has changed to
https: //www .e-cigarette-forum .com/forum/threads/older-folks-and-vaping-back-porch-part-three.657516

Ken, nope not working for me. Here's the original URL for one of my bookmarks (with a spaces added to 'break' it for displaying here)

http: //www .e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-vaping-discussion/633925-older-folks-vaping-front-porch-part-three-781.html#post15587553

This was a direct bookmark to post# 7801 on page [HASHTAG]#781[/HASHTAG] (based on my posts per page setting).

The new forum code re-directs me to this URL w/ the '.' (period construct).

https: //www .e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/threads/older-folks-and-vaping-front-porch-part-three.633925/

But it displays page# 1 / post#1 of the thread.

That's how all my old bookmarks are working. My bookmarks have all been done to a specific post# on the page. Even on the old ECF I've had trouble w/ 'post' bookmarks when changing my posts per page setting. So I've saved my bookmarks to a document (not my browser bookmarks) and recorded the Post# associated w/ the link.

I'm still impressed and liking my iStick 50. As I said, I like the size, shape and button shape/placements. That and I charged it last Friday afternoon. This morning, the following Thursday, the batt was finally drained and the 'charge me' symbol was displayed. Now I've been vaping this a lot each day, not exclusively but a lot. I can't believe the batt lasted me 5+ days of heavy use. It's set at 14.3 watts (3.7V) with a 1Ω coil.
