JayG,
too bad you didn't dig a little deeper at los.
Rich Vivash was actively posting there as "The Fifth" and there were several of us actively helping him along with his project "I NEt Tabs Browser".
The guys who took over develpment of Quick changer were posting there, adn basically the dev of that prog was happening in real tiem right on the LOS MB.
Chaz, as a coder, had imnplemented many options for his website, including multiple personal icons, and the ability for the LOS site users to choose the "Daily Skin".
Much ado about htose two things were going on on the LOS MB right up until the day it disappeared.
Interaction is for those who click the threads.
Don't expect anyone to put up a big sign that says "Hey, JG, cool developer/skinner action going on in here!!!"
Perhaps, when LOS returns, you will dive a littel deeper into the inner working of "the scene"?
