  • I think it's fair to call this a work in progress, but a overhaul of the forums was long overdue.

    Seems like adjusting the background color of the posts and making the hilariously small font a little larger will go a long way to answering many of the criticisms.

    Can we embed larger pictures and videos in posts now?

    Things I like: the navigation links on the side, the social network aspects, and the look now matches the rest of the website

    Things need work: the obvious color and font issues, gave me errors when trying to post on someone's wall, can't find how to jump to the last unread post in a thread (my favorite old forum feature)

    Unless TenC sends us vouchers to get Lasik Eye Surgery so we can read the fonts, please revert back to the old forum style.

    I had a LASIK and I can't read it either :P It actually feels like shortly after the surgery, when I was blinded by all the light.

    My thoughts exactly! :lol I hate the smilies and my pm's are messed up too. Is there a little icon that pops up to tell you that you have a new pm? I'm on my phone... Where is it? Somebody send me a pm so I can find it....

    Don't like the new color scheme (the white with blue text and small font is tough on the eyes) and it's difficult to discern where the "post" is and what's a signature, and where the next "post" begins etc. The layout doesn't separate the posts well . . . and I don't like the new terminology >:P

    I DO like the fact that all sections of the forum (or "categories", I guess) are accessible on the left hand side though. That's nice, rather than having to go back to the main page to get around.

    I dont mind change but no idea whats going on in the forums. The left side of my page is cut off. The categories are listed on the top of the page, which doesn't look right.
    Should I be changing some configurations on my computer? Using IE.

    Why now you don't fixing foruming?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
