Members jeremy_green Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Who cares how the site looks - it's the information within that matters to me. As long as this forum works better than the old one does I am happy.The old site looked like she-ite! This looks much nicer. Before long we will all be used to it. Everyone panics at first, then it all settles in and you find all your stuff. If you are a giiging guitarist and you've played all the sh*thole dives like I have, then an environment like this all of a sudden feels quite nice doesn't it!Trying to send some positive vibes out! I'd hate to see some people leave over this (which is likely inevitable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members benricci Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 It works, but it's ugly as **bleep**, and I find it much harder to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members benricci Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Really, they bleeped a non-swear word? Seriously guys? I said cr@p for crying out loud... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Saturn Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Well the problem is there are functionality issues. The site is not completely functional on iPad or other mobile devices. I can live with the looks if it functions on all of my devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kit_strong Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 I for one don't have any issues with the new forum. The front page is a bit busy but I never go to the front page so it's no biggie to me.The limited use of screen real-estate is a bit silly but since I rarely browse in full-screen mode that's not a big deal to me either. For those complaining about the font size, go into My Settings and change the font size to large or extra-large, problem solved.I do think it's a big improvement on the iPad. It uses the whole screen and is clean and crisp in appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kevman Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Time will tell. Not super intuitive for me as of now.oh, and I lost a couple thousand posts from post-count. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members benricci Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Ah, OK - here was my problem. For some reason, even though I'm on a desktop machine, the forum defaulted to "mobile view," which is why it looked completely ridiculous on my iMac. When I scrolled to the bottom of the main page, I noticed the option for "full version," and viola! Seems dumb that it auto-defaults to mobile mode, though...
