    can anyone else access the forums on Firefox? I can't but can on IE (which I hate).
    Also, how do you see your outbox and sent PM's? I'm just getting back to these now so I apologize in advance if this was covered over the last 12-18 hours somewhere
    Thanks!

    Urgh. I don't like it. The old board seemed to have such an "organic", eyepleasing look. And it looked unique. This hurts my eyes. I don't like all the weird turquoise, the tiny fonts, all the WHITE, the smileys, the organisation ... And why does it say that you edited your post in bright red? That feels like shaming.

    And where are the smileys? I see people posting them, but I don't find them here in the comment box...

    I can access the forums on Firefox (using it now).
    But somehow I can't log in with my original name. It works for the site and my account, but not the forum. Weird...
    Who can look into this?

    I may just be blinded by all of the white but I can't see where to "view your posts".

    The "My Discussions" tab only shows threads that you have started, not threads that you have posted in.

    Any help?

    Is there a way to just go to the last post in a thread instead of having to click and scroll through the last page?

    I fear change!

    In all seriousness, I do not understand websites' need to continually revamp their formats. To be fair, the forums have been the same for a few years; still, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    Also in all seriousness: We are not getting any younger. The band is of a certain age, so are the fans. I'm putting off bifocals for as long as possible -- and this revision is not helping me in that quest. I feel as if yesterday's blizzard hit the forums -- sooooo much white and a small, harder-to-read font. You don't need to swith to large-font text -- yet -- but going smaller just does not make sense given the fanclub demographics.

    For someone earlier -- I am using Firefox and it works fine -- I think, not that I can find/see everything.

    The light blue also is not kind to aging eyes. Whoever designed the new look, please go grab an "old" and ask them how easily they can read what is on the forums.

    Needs a more gentle color background and slightly larger font. Also the signatures blend into what people are posting, makes it confusing to look at. Makes me feel I need to read more or I'll miss something...

    Everyone's location is gone. It's interesting to see where people are from.

    My first thought - wow!!! Someone was watching the Twilight Zone Marathon New Years Eve/Day on Sci Fi and really took a liking to their new reality series they kept advertising. I guess we were all rewarded with living in the future. Why is the future always all white?
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    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....
