I haven't seen any changes (have only used laptop & PC this week though), but I remember stumbling on a thread a few weeks ago, where there was discussion of an upgrade to a new platform (I assume I was reading current posts and not from the previous upgrade/shift). Not sure about mobile, but you can change style of your user interface, and I think the new default was going to be different.
I'm sure Chief would have notified any respected mods though.:p
The style changer is at the bottom left of your page. Again, I haven't seen what people are talking about, so unsure if this is related or helpful.

Thanks Skoob - that worked - the 'new' one was slick - the warm and cool are much closer to the old version...

Okay I think it's a personal setting on BigFooty like skoob pointed out. I cleared my history so was automatically logged out of all websites. Came to BigFooty and saw the hideous change they have made. As soon as I logged back into BigFooty it was the old version again.
That would be why I haven't seen it, all my devices I have "Stay Logged In" checked.

I finally found the "cool" and changed the format back..thank goodness, was driving me mad. Trouble is I can't find it again, but for anyone having trouble finding it, just keep clicking on stuff.

I hate all this technology stuff, does my head in:(

If the Cowboys and GWS win tonight we'll have Victorian and Queensland teams playing in a final in NSW, and SA and NSW teams playing in a final in Victoria. o_O
I like it.

Really hope GWS can knock off the Richmond bandwagon that has rolled into Melbourne in recent weeks.

Hey guys!

Just organizing a little off season reading and I was curious as to whether there are any Lions biographies I wasn't aware of?

I'm not looking at Fitzroy or Bears stuff, just post merger.

I've got Browny's book as well as Lynchy's and both of Aker's. I have Fev's book and Lethal's along with Shane Johnson's. Is anyone aware of any others?

I feel like our premiership years should have yielded a couple more books! I'd love to hear Ashcroft's story, for example. 3 wooden spoons, 3 flags, 300 games - I'd buy it!

Anyone have any experience doing fly in fly out work?

I'd love to hear your thoughts preferably from a lifestyle perspective. How was the strain on your relationships? Did you feel like you were overworked? Where and what were your shifts.

I currently have a great job but I potentially will get an offer tomorrow and the money will be hard to say no to. But I worry about how I'll go being away from all friends and family only working for a month (0 tolerance drugs & alcohol site). Any experiences in the mines, oil rigs etc. I'd love to hear it.
