Thank you. Although one runs the risk of being subjected to a plethora of airhead material from the generation that gave us Ganggam style. Its a risk worth taking.

That is why there is no true embedding (with auto play!). Make a judgement if you want to see a video based on the content of the regular posts from the original poster.

Pure genius! tested it out in chess only, works like dream. Responsive design also fills up the wide-screen monitor. Forum is also much easier to read now, the look is clean and unencumbered. 😀

First few minutes of scoping the new look and all seems to be in order with nice enhancements. Thank you.
