F.Y.I. The image upload feature of the website is NOT gone. You can access it through the navigational frame on the left. It is just no longer directly integrated into the ubb. It also has MANY nice improvements thanks to Daryl C. W. O'Shea.
Daryl has also greatly improved our chat entryway as well.

Maybe its just my computer but a train sounds every 10 or so seconds in chat when the page refreshes (when it used to just make a 'click' sound.) Maybe its just an IE problem though.

Say something. It is an audible alert so if you are in the chat room you can minimize the screen and when someone else comes in the room it will alert you. Once you talk, it stops.

For redundancy's sake: D'OH!!!
I was going nuts looking for it in the message area. I'm running at 800x600 so I didn't notice it tucked away in the bottom of the list there. Shame on me! I'm usually more observant than that.

Perhaps the row height on the top left frame could be increased by a couple percent so that the upload button shows up in smaller window sizes.

It's a hard decision to make. If the navigational frame is enlarged to show the full menu of choices then the chat monitor becomes a moot point of having. I am basically designing the site these days for 1024x768, but am keeping in mind the 800x600 guys with respect to the 550 pixel upload restriction.
