Chips N Dust Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 @RustyFN, they have been doing some updates to the site and one of tbose is the "look" of the site. If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you will see "THEME" click on that and you an use the default theme or choose custum and select the colors you like RustyFN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 MY theme reverted back to the "light" theme this morning. Maybe it's tied into the sun's cycle. HARO50 and Grandpadave52 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schnewj Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Mine, also, reverted back to the light theme this morning. I have changed it back to the custom theme. I am back to experiencing an intermittent lag when typing. Not all of the time just every once in awhile. I not the slowest, or the fastest, touch typist in the world, but it is having a tough time keeping up this morning. Thought you would like to know.

Gene Howe Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Kinda like sanding. A little rough in the beginning. Then things gradually smooth out. We're up to the 300 grit now. Grandpadave52 and HARO50 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred W. Hargis Jr Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I've had the lag in typing (occasionally) as well...I kept thinking it was my connection. Maybe not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Whenever my system responds slowly, it is most often the CPU is involved, heavily, with another operation. You can check the CPU activity using the task manager (assuming you are using a Windows system). This following file demonstrates how to bring up the task manager and check CPU usage- Recording_20170820_1354.mht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerald Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 My computer was terrible slow typing and discovered that it was the browser. In Firefox you can reset it and solve most problems HARO50 and John Morris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our community runs very fast on those browser's, FF has gotten pretty bloated, sadly. HARO50 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clicking on the "first unread" dot (or star) would put me anywhere on the page BUT the first new comment, and a few other aggravating things. Around noon I thought I'd try Microsoft Edge, and lo and behold, the problems are GONE! Out of curiosity, how does one "reset" FF? I'm learning, but I'm still considered "computer illiterate"!
