clootie Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I can see 'bots' at the bottom of the main menu - can anyone else see them??! Ah, yes I see them too. What are "bots" please? I'm a thick person. EEEEK!! I didn't see them!! I saw the word "bot" and wondered if it was secret spy language. Maybe I'm not so thick after all! Thanks Chookie!!

chelsea Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 just another couple of things - love the fact that eglus and chickens are now smilies! I preferred when the moderators were in BOLD print when you look at who is online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Still have a play with it, but quite like it so far! Edit: just got an email notification which had loads of gobbledegook in the subject line . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omlet Staff james Posted August 20, 2008 Author Omlet Staff Share Posted August 20, 2008 Hi, Would you be able to email me the notification message which the gobbledegook in it please so that I can see if I can fix the problem? My email address is james@omlet.co.uk, Thanks, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Am i being thick? Some of the posts now have next to them a circle with a blue outline with a white shape in - what does that mean? And also some of them have a little black spot on corner of the circle? Eh?! Overall its ok - i'm not good at change either Chelsea! Have noticed some things you could look at as a 'guest' you now have to be online for which is a pain and i don't like the instinctive green writing - preferred black - but its good that its much easier to change the colour now! Other then that, looks pretty good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Eek. We had a BIG discussion a long while ago about the default colour and it was changed from green to black.. although *ahem, coughs* some members were intent on pink..... Perhaps this could be changed to black again. Will put it on poor james' list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Haven't taken it all in yet - sure it will be brilliant when I get used to it. Not sure on the colour of the text though Just a relief to be able to log back on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Yay! I can post again!! I don't really like the green font either as it's difficult to read but I like some of the new features and although it'll take me a while to get used to the changes, they seem to be for the better!

Guest Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Eek. We had a BIG discussion a long while ago about the default colour and it was changed from green to black.. although *ahem, coughs* some members were intent on pink..... Who would possibly want PINK??! This new font colour bit makes it sooooooo much easier to do: pink...pink...pink...pink...pink...pink...pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I've logged out, then logged back in again, but not 'lost' the red stars - on the old forum, I'd have lost the arrows, but the stars stay until you actually read the topic in question.

AnnieP Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Yeah... at the moment the "Mark all topics as read" button isn't working either.. How scary. I rely on that one quite often to make myself feel better when I have been away for a while! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 That scares me too as I often mark all topics as read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Find it is very very slow unless its our internet connection but I am sure we will all get used to it in the end - I too dislike change but..... It will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Can I get away with saying I don't particularly like it? And this weird green is hard to read after a while, it was much better with the black like it used to be. Also the PMing system is confusing me now, I vaguely understand it but it's not as user friendly as it used to be. However it's now a lot easier to find the posts that have been replied to and it's much more evident. Plus you don't have to scroll down the page so far to look at all of the different forums, so that makes it easier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallina Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I don't like it much: the last message I tried to write vanished. I suppose I will get used to it, but I am an "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" person. At least it got better after I logged in: at first I didn't realize I would have to do that, as I normally stay logged in automatically. It can take wider photographs, I think. I hope the green text gets changed soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 What is good though is that Hyperlinks in people's signatures are underlined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Also, another thing I keep finding annoying is that when you hit the back arrow from the post it takes you to the index, rather than back to the forum you were using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 The back arrow takes me back to the main index Liz Maybe it is a Mac thing, but it works well for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bokbokbok Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I don't like change either but can usually get used to things given time. I DO NOT like the inconsistency of what looks like a different size of font and definitely a different colour when showing who is viewing the forum: That is the only thing I don't like! EW! Well done on what must have been a very busy day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
