Even though the original reason as to why this site was created in the beginning has played itself out over the intervening years, I'm glad this site is still around and available for us to enjoy and to keep up with those we've made friends with between here and Unity. Personally, I'm not ever planning to join FB due to personal and other reasons, so I consider this place a home for all things Enya...

Your baking is the best, though Riene is a close second! I'm on FB, but I do worry about privacy (I do not want my whole life laid out there), and also about becoming addicted to it. There are people there who seem to post every 45 seconds, every day, every hour.

Facebook is what you make it. I didn't particularly want to start an account, but it was the main way several of my organizations were using to contact their members, so I did. Today it is mainly my newsfeed--I follow several major international, national, and local feeds, and it is the only way I have to contact several family or friends.
Only follow people you genuinely like and trust. Unfollow and / or block anyone who is a problem. Set your privacy controls at maximum, and don't post anything you don't want public.
I'm not a paranoid person, and I use common sense. Anything you do, social media or otherwise, can be a concern. Just be careful out there.

Do you have/use an ad blocker on your phone, Candace?
(I use Adblock Plus on my pc)

Glad to hear that, Candace.
I've had my pc "held hostage" by an ad, and had to reboot it. But then I got a good ad-blocker.

FYI, a minute ago, I was on the site and got another of those annoying takeover ads. Similar to the one I posted above. Again had to close out of my browser and come back. Ugh, I just might have to shell out $$$ for an "ad free" site. I know how annoying this can be. Were you using your phone, Candice?

I've tried two or three of the Forum Theme Skins here - first I wanted to use the "The Celts" Skin, but this one is in a really dark blue, so I ended up using "A Day Without Rain" for the moment.
Can the "The Celts" Skin maybe done a bit brighter with the blue gradations, if possible?
Thanks (and please don't take this as offender Riene & Moe).

I have another thing to mention, hope it's ok when I post it here. When I'm on here, then a pop up comes out several times, saying "Can we talk?" and that I should disable my adblocker or spend money to get ad-free on proboards.... is there any way to block this pop up? It's really annoying.... I've activated my Adblock Plus, but it comes nevertheless..... and also this one, saying:
"Support the services you love. $ 2,99/month gets you unlimited ad-free browsing of all the ProBoards forums you are a member of. Click here to subscribe!"
But this banner with the text above is permanent.

I get the same pop up. I just tell it to go away. I don't know how to block it.
Proboards wants me to pay every month for their services, and it's in US dollars. I never want to give any company my credit card account.
If a member really wants to get rid of that banner, please feel free to do so.

My Adblock Plus ist active, but nevertheless the banner is visible.... and I can't click on it to close it. As for blocking Popups: Firefox has the possibility you can set it up to block pop ups, maybe you can try that (and me too)? Or which browser are you using?
EDIT: I've just tried to block the banner. I clicked on the red Adblock Plus sign on the right above. It opened and said in the right corner of the bottom: "Blocking Element". I clicked on that and then on the banner and it worked. Maybe you can try that?

It seems to have removed that banner, at least for now. Thanks for being a genius!!
