The server seems to be about 4 hours ahead of EDT, is it near Duncan :)

Did the hackers follow us to the new site? I don't remember a picture or title under my "handle" when I signed up...

Check your profile. You can set it to EST which is GMT -4.

You can also change or edit other things there... hint... :)

:?: Then how come central always shows up as GMT -6 :?: Of course the times are usually wrong where ever I set it to. BTW, I like the mod you did to my avatar :P

Yes, your avatar looks good small. If it was larger, people might have complained about it being... nevermind..... :wink:

Change the time to GMT -5 in your profile (or to anything you want).

Actually the comment was directed at the editing done atop the pic 8) GMT-5 works here but I have noticed that a lot of times when I am setting my time settings I will see GMT-6 given for central. Some times it's right, other times it's not.

When daylight savings time is in effect (CDT) it is GMT -5, otherwise it is central standard time (CST) which is GMT -6. Usually on a PC you will select the time zone, and whether you want it to adjust for daylight savings time automatically.

That makes sense to me. I've noticed some sites where you select the time zone and off in ()'s will be GMT-x. For central it is usually given as -6 but I've never seen any disticntion on these sites for daylight savings.
