Forum's New look...seems to crash on PC

New Look?

Just thought I'd ask what you think about the new look to the forum.

I'm finding it hard to get used to, but maybe I'm just being a grumpy old man. How about you?

Getting used to it. I've found most of the old tricks in their new hiding spots. I think the old layout was a bit easier to read and navigate, but I'm also finding a few new features I may grow to like. I think once I get my new glasses (to deal with the smaller fonts) my curmudgen will crawl back in his cage.

We merged this with the other main thread on this topic. Don't forget we have that little ol pesky search button.

Oops, forgot about this thread. Thanks, SweetPoison.

 

[Heaviside]

Sorry for the duplication. Didn't see the original thread and just wanted to issue a mild gripe---so never thought to do a search.

 

[SweetPoison]

No worries! Did you issue your gripe?

Oh, sure. I just didn't care for the original (new) look 'cause things were so hard to read. But things have improved a lot since.

 

[SweetPoison]

I hear you. I didn't care for it too much at first either. I think we all don't like change much ~ but now it is like it should be. I don't even remember the old look!

The small changes snuck up on me. I though I was just getting used to it, but it is easier to read now. Once my new computer glasses arrive I won't even have to squint. My inner curmudgeon has settled back to down for a good nap.

Since I started this original post-the new look of the site is much better. My biggest issues initially was the loading error of certain posts. That, I no longer experience! The font size I am used to- just zoom in on the iPad if I can't read it!!
Overall, great look! Working well for me!

if we can get a red dot to show when someone is offline, cause the green looks similar to the offline colour.

Good idea...and passed along to the Admins. Thanks! :thumbs:

The AF is fine, but the pesky little search button is too small. Fix that, and we are good to go.
