[quote=cardmaker2;17050343]I have a question-- a lot, actually because I don't 'so' an social networking except here, so I don't understand quite a few things.

Has this slowed down the site at all? My experience last night and this morning has been very slow for loading pages. I haven't checked out any other site except SCS but this is tedious. Maybe there is no connection.

Lydia, I have thought this more than once. You are so good at the computer aspect of your Moderator position as well as keeping the peace and always being gracious. Thank you for being so nice about things![/quote]


My sentiments too! You do a great job. Lydia!

Okay, for me they're visual clutter. I guess they're useful for some people, I'd like the ability to make them invisible to me. :) I don't care what anyone else does - if they can use them to make life easier than cutting and posting what is in a public forum anyway, so be it.

But I'll never use them, lol. So if I didn't see the icons, I'd be happy.

Visual clutter is too distracting for me. I think I'm old. Or maybe the glasses. (Both.)

I realize that if someone wants, they can email my card to someone, or link them to it -but that's a lot more bother than just a click of a facebook button.

I would prefer to have a opt out button.

Sorry about that! That's just my preference.

I notice that the buttons are not in the CE area, which is good. But I'd prefer to have that option everywhere.
Me too! Totally agree with all of this.

I agree with you. More visual clutter to add...along with all the ads down the sides, blinky ads at the top and bottom of the pages...

Now it's within the posts, too!

I really people can copy and paste to the social sites but now it just seems, again to me, that this advertises to people to share other peoples work on other sites. Sometimes out of site is out of mind.

I was not pleased when the facebook option was added but was pleased when an opt out option was given. It would be nice to be given this option again. I believe that most of the people that visit this site on a regular basis would and do respect other peoples choice not to have their work posted on social networking sites.

I realize that I am in the minority in my opinion but thought I would just share my 2 cents on the matter.
I so agree with you.

I, too, think the icons add to visual clutter. I blocked them in Firefox.

The Gibbs pic can be posted on every page, however. ;)
