I'm trying to imagine how this could be worse.

And no, not a single idea has come to mind yet.

:think: :think: ..... Me neither. The damn thinking smiley doesn't even work anymore.

We''ll get used to the new format, it's not the end of the world after all.

True. Far from the end of the world.

My only real problem with it is that I can't read anything. But it's only a text-based message board so that's kinda splitting hairs I guess.

Not the end of the world, but it's frustrating to see people go out of their way to make something worse than it was..... I must say that i am glad i'm not experiencing any third world problem at the moment.

If you have Chrome, you can change the style with the stylebot Extension which allows to edit the CSS styling of the page.

The code below turns the comments into the following which is already somewhat more reasonable to the eyes.



.DataList .Item, .NarrowList .Item{
	padding: 0;
	border: 0;
	margin-bottom: 5px;
}
.Comment{
	border: 1px solid #ccc;
	padding: 5px;

}
.Item-Header{
	border-bottom: 1px solid #666;
	background-color #cccccc;
}
.ItemComment .Comment{
	background-color: #ddd;
}
.Alt .Comment{
	background-color: #eee;
}
.Username{
	color: black;
}
.PostCount{
	color: #999;
}
.DateCreated time{
	color: #999;
}
.QuoteAuthor a, .QuoteFolding{
	color: black;
}
.Message a, .UserQuote a {
	color: #333;
}
.Message a:hover, .UserQuote a:hover{
	color: #666;
}
.Reactions .Quote{
	color: #999;
}
.Reactions{
	margin-top: 5px;
	padding-top: 4px;
	border-top: 1px solid white;
}
.Message{
	padding-top: 5px;
	padding-bottom: 5px;
	font-size: 12px;
}

nope...Looks like ios7! and are animated gifs are no more?

Travelar · January 2014

I hope to see some more updates over the next few days, but this is difficult to read.

Mobile version looks nice and simple on my iPhone though...

As said by others, the white is way too bright. Also, why to the post replies size of thread numbers need to be so big and bold. Distracts from thread title (as does the coloured avatars for thread starters and last poster).

I don't see how this would be an imporvement?

Include youtube-videos and don't limit image sizes when importing and you would have a better forum.

This looks like it hasn't been designed at all and just put out without working on the aesthetic side at all.

I think the old way was easier on the eyes.

Hate it...

Absolute shit

Paulina87 · January 2014

not a fan of the new version, don't know what was wrong in the previous one that they decided to change it.
Where can I find the threads i was posting in?
too bad you can't send message straight from the board, it was a good option
And the inbox doesn't look very clear as well

Haven't spent enough time yet to see how user friendly the new functions are but it is definitely much too bright. This is going to be headache inducing. Hoping this is just a draft version to test the new layout.

At work we use old browsers and the new lay out is almost impossible to read. The website itself doesn't display properly but that doesn't really matter, but on the new forum the frames are out, ao thw left hans side of the posts don't display etc, the text is tiny and it's difficult to distinguish people's signatures.
I'll have a look at home later on a newer browser but it means my lunchtime browsing has probably stopped.

goldrush · January 2014

I really hope there are more changes to come as this is pretty shit so far. This is way too bright, the text is too small, it's hard to see how they thought this would be an improvement...

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?

Do you like the New Layout?
