new buttons?

Hey just curious about the new buttons at the top of the screen they don't look like they belong? Are they legit links, or are they some kinda spyware? Call me paranoid but comp crashes are too expensive and stressfull so I am extra cautious. Thanks

Dave

I know that there was talks of this before but it never amounted to anything.. Looks like it has now though.. I was not aware that there was going to be any changes.. As far as the chat goes, no idea what's up with that, again, no one said anything..

Not sure i like the site looking like a european hockey jersey.. (too many adverts)

lol! I agree

I liked it the other way.
Another thing is that, previously, while I was in the classifieds and such, it always said test!?!?

Anyone know what's going on??

Like Matt, I'm in the dark about all this as well. It was doing the 'test' thing all last night as well. I suppose it is just a side-effect of the site being reconfigured with the apparent merger. I also agree with the comment on the appearance of the buttons :/

I saw the buttons as well, but I just thought the spyware on my computer was acting up... now I know it's not just me. I'm sorry but they look rediculous and out-of-place here...

And why was the chat link on the old graphic changed as well? I can understand the chat button pointing to reptichat, but the old link points to reptichat as well...

The whole button menu across the top is sourced from ReptiBid.

Weird.

Reptibid??? I've been watching that auction site for a while, personally, it isn't established enough for me to risk using it. They don't have enough safe guards in place to protect the buyer and seller. It could be a good idea, but I see allot of people trying to pass of Het for this and Het for that all the time, and really it's too risky. I might by a heating product, but an animal, not worth the risk in my opinion.
