Members ajympt Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 I think this seems pretty cool-background seems harsh- but I happen to be rather light sensitive so maybe its not all that bad. I have to admit as "comfortable" as the old version was, I won't miss wondering when the day would come that the whole thing collapsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Herzomud Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 How can they give something to guitarists that is so new and clean looking? Surely we all hang onto the old version because it is what we have been used to seeing and playing for so long. People will not be happy until they give a reliced or very least NOS appearance with all of the new features hidden and undetectable. Oh and we need something added from Callaham to make the site resonate better. In titanium or brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fuzztone Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 What happened to all my posts?When I did a search of my posts all I got was the 1 from today and when I searched threads that I had started I only found some from 2005.

Members zantor9 Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 ^^ Yup and vids too. They work even better. Just a "Insert Video" icon and put in the link. Instead of insert Youtube tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GAS Man Posted December 3, 2010 Author Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 baaaaah you kids get offa my lawn!! i hate and resist all changes! jk, this is pretty sweet as long as the speed improves Yeah, I thought about the downside of being "that guy" when I posted this thread, but I don't care, I do like the look of the old better. But moving on along and looking at the suggestions, I tried to adjust using "Settings" and that didn't work since there were no sizings options there on my screen. But I did use a function under "View" on my Mozilla program and increased the zoom. That did help some with the readability but now it seems a bit too inflated, but easier to read.

Members Belva Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 Looks like the only real hater here is Mr. Buttbomb. The quick nav needs a bit ot work, but I like the over all format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GilmourD Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 Search feature only searches threads since the update. FAIL! I dunno if you saw the announcement at the top of the forum, but they're working on the search. It'll take a week to index the entire site, but new posts are automatically indexed, so that's why it can search those already. As far as the look, that same announcement also said that they're working on making sure things are 100% stable before doing the visual tweaks needed to make the place more like our familiar old friend. Regardless, it's a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE improvement over HC2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Steadfastly Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 It looks exactly like GuitarsCanada.com site. I used to know were I was, on GC or HC.

Members sylvesterlowery Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 I think it's ok. It's going to take a little getting used to, but it's 1000 times better than the abomination known as 2.0. I'll hang with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ashasha Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 Not only is it better than HC2.0, but it's basically what everyone was asking for. vBulletin4 so that it'd have the same functionality as the old site and fix a lot of outstanding bugs. In about a week after the database is indexed and they've changed the color scheme back to something more familiar and you can search and it's faster than the last site...well basically if you're complaining it's because you just like to complain.

Members dcindc Posted December 3, 2010 Members Share Posted December 3, 2010 wow. yeah It's different. I immediately scrolled to the bottom to see if it was still Vbulletin. Saw that it was and jumped in.Yeah, this is what we wanted. Thanks HC for listening to the rousing din over 2.0 and upgrading the existing forum sw. This will only take about a day to get used to.This is so much better than the recent changes that ebay and photobucket have made...So.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members V-Type Posted December 4, 2010 Members Share Posted December 4, 2010 WTF? This crap again. Honestly WTF is up with this place wanting too completely change its format all the time? There is nothing wrong with the old forum format and 3-1 odds are most people would rather have it back. Honestly HC you guys lost me with the last 2.0 BS and now this slightly less offensive(visually) site is just as ???????? TGP should see a pretty good influx of traffic. Great Work HC programming.................. Not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
