There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Not sure what sending a DM does. Seems useless unless it comes thru as a text, which it doesn’t seem to. Maybe someone with more insight into such things can clue clueless me in. Hoping there’s a way to do something like that. Sigh…. I’ll keep monitoring here at least daily for now.Are you getting my direct message? New to this
@mikthebik, a DM is a Direct Message, sent directly to you, and as detailed in the 'READ FIRST! How to use the...' using those are the only way you should exchange contact details in order to carry out any negotiation and actually sell your Spyder. 
If you don't know how to use things here, please ask! 
Look up toward the top right of the page, where your username is. There's a little envelope alongside your username, and a little bell alongside that. If you haven't ever clicked on either, there's probably also a couple of little red squares with a number in each of them - the red squares are called 'Notifications', and they are there to notify you that you've either got a message or someone has 'liked' one of your posts. You want to click on them both at some stage, but if you want to sell your Spyder, click on the envelope ASAP, then click on and read each of the messages listed, especially the one from @Smz1000, who has been trying for some time to contact you, exchange contact details, and discuss buying your Spyder.
If you want to send anyone a DM, simply click on the Avatar above their username alongside any of their posts and then the box in the bottom row of the panel the comes up which says 'Send Direct message' or something similar; or click on that envelope up toward the top right of the page; and then read the content of the pages &/or boxes that come and either click on them &/or enter the necessary details as appropriate and follow the directions on the screen to send the message - then watch the little envelope for the little red square with a number in it to appear up in the top right to notify you that there's a message/response.
Good luck, and please remember, if you don't know, you really should just ask, either here in a post, or possibly more preferably, by DM, as those messages are Direct and allow one to one contact without sharing things/info with the rest of World that they probably don't need to know.
