I use the later because I believe most of us older folks have trouble reading the images.  Plus robots eventually figure out the image systems, meaning the images get harder to read over time.  The down fall of question/approval is you have to wait for me to approve you before you can post.

One thing I have noticed that the new forum does not have is a 
subscription or notification option that will email me when replies are 
posted to a thread I have started or am watching on the forum. This 
option works well over on red power. Whenever anyone replies to a thread 
I'm subscribed to I get an email update so I can drop in to the forum 
and read the new posting and reply.
Or have I missed seeing that on the new a.t.i.s. forum?

Ralph in Sask.
