There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Why can't I ask a question regarding my cruise control, like everyone else asking questions?

What makes you think it has to be a message?? 
Have you tried clicking on the orange 'Post thread' button that's on the top right of the page opposite the Section/sub-forum? 
That said, it appears that you've been quite successful in starting a new thread in the past, earlier this year even; and then you've successfully started a new thread with your post above, and that's really all you need to do; altho we do ask that you always try Searching FIRST, and if there's not a fairly recent thread asking/discussing the same or a closely related topic for you to Post a reply in (see the blue 'Post reply' button down toward the bottom right of each page/after the last post in the thread) only then should you consider starting a new thread. But if you do, and you want helpful answers/meaningful contributions, then you should first find and go to the most appropriate Forum section & sub-forum for your question/new thread (like Forum Support and Testing for this question/thread, rather than Spyder General Discussion, because this particular thread is really about how to use the Forum rather than anything to do with a Spyder
) and only then select the 'Post thread' button. Once you have the most appropriate sub-forum open and you've selected 'Post thread', you should always briefly ask your question in any new thread title, as you have done above; or at the very least, tell us what you expect from the thread in the title - doing either will help members/readers to have some idea of what you're on about/want to achieve, and that will help you get answers now, and also help any/all readers as well as anybody/everybody searching for the same or similar info in the future. 
So for now, I can only suggest that I really don't understand what is going on here/what your problem is - could I have more info/a bit of background/context please??
Ps: If you do want to ask any questions about your Spyder, or even provide replies, then it really helps all readers if you make sure to include your Spyder's year and model info in the detail provided; and if you don't want to type that info every post you ever make, then as requested in this thread/Sticky:
it will really help all readers if you add that info in your Signature block so that it will appear in every post you make (see mine below!) The link above should take you to page #7 of the Sticky, and post #129 by @racoon provides details on how to add that info on this platform rather than the old platform. Over to you.

A Request Passed On To All - Add your Spyder/Ryker Year/model to your Sig Line!
I am not sure about the size. But your picture looks good for me. If there is a problem someone will chime in shortly.
