It's confusing, took me a while to work out where to log in and start a thread.
Plus the avatars are so small now.
Please change it back!

    I agree completely.
    It is less accessible.
    It is to busy and not only are the avatars too small, as I am typing this I find that the letters are too small as well.
    The old board was easier on the eye, and I ain't talking beauty.
    It looks more like MSN chat board than a forum.
    I guess they were aiming to make it better, but how on earth they came up with this is a mystery to me.
    It's cold and not inviting at all.

    It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.

    The colours suck as well, too bright.
    It's too loud and too cluttered.

    Also, how the hell can I see which threads I've posted in? Before there used to be a icon to let me know.

    I'm willing to give it a little time to figure it all out. but I do agree that the white background and small type are hard on the eyes.

    I'll give them some time to work out the bugs, but as of right now on a scale of 1 to 10, I give it a generous 2. Hard to see and read due to the font size. When I magnify, I can't see portions of the right hand side of the screen. Light-blue font on white is hard to see.

    yarr! :ar!

    I don't like it at all. it looks generic. It is hard to read and distinguish between where a post ends and someone's signature. And I miss the the popcorn smiley!!! And I miss the list of birthdays and who it online by name. :-q
    I lost a bet...

    It's in beta stage, folks. Hopefully 10c will take suggestions from us in how to make it more user-friendly. First thing they need to do, is making the font size larger!

    Who are all the new people?
    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.

    Don't like it at all. The print is way too small and it's hard to differentiate the posts from signatures.

    Turning off signatures helps. Click on the cogwheel by your name on the upper left menu.
    Select preferences
    Go to signatures section
    Click all the boxes, then click save
    ta-Dah!

    I turned sigs off, and it seems to help a lot with the appearance and flow. With sigs on, its hard to tell where a post starts and ends. I read two or three sigs earlier thinking "This person is taking some whacko shit"

    Your pics were always that big, Tree... Maybe put them side by side.

    I really miss the old smileys, I only like this one, it makes me giggle :^o

    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    Seems they weren't so huge before.. They were annoying ME!! Lol so I changed it.. I really need a computer!!
  • karmadefectkarmadefect Posts: 806
    Perhaps they can help Jeff to help.
    He did art school right, so he would know how to use colors,
    and where to put what so it is visually balanced. The pictures for instance, they distract from the post it self. And that is odd since it's about the text. Please get someone on board who understands these things. This looks like it's done by amatuers

    So just how much notice were we given? Being a paying customer seems to mean fuck all when dealing with these people. Sonce we pay how about you ASK us if we wanted to change to begin with. Seek our input on what to change what else we might like to see etc. But no, usual halfassed shit.

    I thought the forum format they used in 2004 seemed to work better then anything else since then. Maybe the answer lies in the past, not the future.
