I didn't mean to offend anyone, especially fullmeltbubble, and if I did, I'd like to sincerely apologize.

ads are awful, i cant look @ any more ..


IMO (and I run a small website) neither server cost, cost for registering domain privately, or the time spent on upkeep is "cheap"

lol Im sure most people that actually use the site and needa move some glass would rather pay the 5,10,15, or even 20 dollars then leave the site for good.. Like someone already mentioned, "speak for yourself!".

I think they are doing a fine job here. It takes alot of time behind the scene to run a site.And time is money so hung on and see what happens.
As for a online auction, i am going to try to set something up. But it can not be free as it would be a live auction and will take work to make it work right and safe for all.
But give Melt a hand for what he is doing here for everone. I am sure there are other things he could be doing. To run something like this is not easy. Hats off to him and everyone else behind the scene.

I've only engaged in one transaction on this site, but I love it none the less. Some of you need to think about what you say before you say it. What motivation do people have to help you when you spit in their face and regard the time and energy poured into this website as insignificant? Give some credit where credit is due, be willing to accept some changes, toke up a bowl and chill.

I just wanna say that the upgrade looks great. I love the back ground, damn near shorted out my keyboard with drool. lol

And take your time with what ever you gotta do to finish it. It's better to take your time and do it once right then rush it and have to fix a bunch of mistakes.

Keep up the good work

if you goto the lower left of the home page(all the way on the bottom) you'll see a scroll down menu....put it on "check" thats what i've been working on....input? ideas?

Dude it looks awesome!!! Bring it on...

Looks cool. are you gonna make a few different ones so people have some varity?? and I like howe the sig. is right in the message

It looks great fullmeltbubble! The feedback score with the positive, neutral, and negative option looks like a great system and I'm diggin' the color options. Like everyone has been saying: keep up the great work you do here!
