You cannot remove it.

And Dr. Delight, I wonder what we'll see after the Late Night Crew? We sure don't want to work out the mod options...but it won't be our choice, will it? Margaritas for everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Sorry, now the link doesn't seem to work.... Leeze, if it doesn't work for you pm me. I copied a lot of the URLs.
EDIT: never mind. I fucked up the original URL. Fixed. They're here: http://imgur.com/a/wHchf

This is going to take some getting used to... so far, not loving it. Very confusing to navigate and read...

I believe she means that drunk people better watch what they say late at night or else they'll be sent to detention. Or maybe worse! :-SS Don't worry Kat, everyone's been so good lately. Right?

strange and confusing to navigate...

Usually these type of things evolve, but this new setup seems primitive...Early ICQ...Really weak

Hey Kat, since you're asking for a discussion, here are my sentiments on the site.

“Pearljam Community”. Really?

On the main page - why are sub-headings aligned further to the right than the headings if they’re nearly equal font size? Keep everything aligned as it’s distracting to see text moving left and right.

Spacing: why is there so much more space beneath headings than above it (take Not Pearl Jam’s Music, for example)? Being consistent and going with age-old standards would be nice.

Popular Tags: this is not Twitter. We come here to make statements longer than 140 characters to each other.

Category Filter: Why opt people into followed categories as a default, when 95% of the viewers won’t notice and hence will never change it to all categories?

Who’s Online: Unnecessary, but nice! I like seeing the usernames when I float my cursor over the images.

Reply-ability: A ‘Post Reply’ button on the top of the page would be nice, or a hidden button to post a reply when your cursor floats over a post.

Font: Horrendous. Particularly illegible on all screens I’ve viewed it on (iPad mini, iPhone, 15” MacBook, 27” iMac). Something about the spacing between letters is hard on the eyes. The default font sizes should be enlarged as well. Yes, I’m aware that my browser can change the sizes if I would like, but a good web design shouldn’t require me to do that upon each visit.

Colours: Really, where the hell are they? White? Seriously? Terrible design idea for a website all about reading – this creates eye fatigue rapidly.

Overall feel: toy-like, unprofessional, cheap knock-off, poorly translated, work in progress, beta, junk are the words that come to mind.

The guts of this are clearly nearly the same as the old design. My suggestion: offer the company who was (over)paid to ruin a good thing an ultimatum of a quality revision with the attention to detail this site needs, or money back and a smooth conversion back to the old site - which, from what I can tell, was superior in nearly every regard.

I am not looking forward to the first time someone uses that one on me, lol.

Now that one violates the Posting Guidelines, doesn't it? [-X Follow the Posting Guidelines always and all will be ok.

Me just giving the "your # 1" emoticon, that's all

Yeah, that's the ticket ... :-\"

this crap is stressing out norm. we can't have that... change it back asap!

is there any reason why they can't go back to the old forum set up and just change the skin(s)?

You shouldn't have to zoom in on text and dim your screen to participate on a forum.

I tried the forum from my ipod and I had to dim the screen on that too and angle it away from my eyes to read posts on the forum. Even then it wasn't comfortable for my eyes and it stopped me from spending more than a few minutes on there.

Have a look on some other band message boards and please rethink the colour scheme. You don't have to copy another message board exactly, but have a look to see what other bands are offering. Just as an example, the foo fighters message board has a dark colour scheme: http://bbs.foofighters.com/ .

Absolutely. This place is filled with great people who love the band and their music and they want to talk with other people who feel that way too. It really is a great community and I always find something to have a laugh about because you're a bunch of jokers too. Sending you weekend wishes again because I'm getting ready to head out. xo

Kat ... Good question ... Why provide an emoticon that violates the posting guidelines?

Oh, snap!
