Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 The avatars are back on the left again now, that makes it seem more familiar. Mine aren't I think if you do CTRL and F5 it might sort it? (May be wrong!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Click on the refresh button Goosey and they should 'jump' over. The avatars on the left look great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I like...it suits the style of the new homepage and other bits and I think the difference to the UCP makes that a lot clearer. I just think that in the actual forum or on the board index everything looks kinda..the same? It's harder to tell things apart, like what's just a thread and what's a sticky or an important notice. I like the way you post messages though, I think the new way of quoting is nice..but I don't like the way you read normal posts, it's not too clear. Well, there's my opinion anyway..but I'm going to stick with omletsilver and play around for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoid Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I like it, things seem to 'flow' better. Takes up more of the screen too, so there is no 'dead' space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I really like the "Board Index" button top and bottom and also this line of buttons when you're on the index page .....

Seagazer Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Gosh I go out for a bit to buy new girlies and look whats happened to the forum! I wasn't sure at all and I haven't had a proper lookround yet but if nosebleed is going then we'll just have to get used to it. I agree with Scramble though that the index page/thread title thingy doesn't look very clear. You knew where the stickys/announcements were but they all seem the same at the moment. Can anything be done on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I'm getting used to it - bits I like and bits I don't........I've had to use the A button to make the font larger.......like having Board Index at top and bottom...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I like it Just one thing - the avatars keep jumping from the right to the left of the screens depending on what I am looking at They def look better on the right as the text reads better with nothing to the left of it It would seem like work is ongoing though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 One problem, if you receive a PM, and the person is online, the sash gets in the way of the text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Just another quick comment. It is much harder to see when new posts have been added to a topic. the contrast between the red and the blue is not that great. Also the name beside the latest post is hard to spot too. Thanks for the feedback - can you tell me which pages you're looking at? On the main Nesting Box Index page, at the left hand side threads with new posts show with a red indicator and those with no new posts show with a blue one. It seems hard to immediately spot the threads with new posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I tried it yesterday and was but the changes have made it better already I prefer the avatar on the left + really like the Online banner - could there be an offline one? Don't know about the PM button though, a bit small? I still think the mods should be orange - ooh, don't like that you have to click font colour at the top + not have it on the side when posting a message The cursor when typing text isn't there either for me. Could it be made more chicken/omletty without getting cheesy? ... like have a green or for a read topic, and a red for unread instead of the ?, or a and ? I don't see them in front of a thread title that has been read, but on the Index page, read forums are green, not blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angels4 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I quite like the change....was just over at OmletUS and tried to make the change there as well but it isn't an option....just the plain old forum. When might we expect it to change there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Green for me, eglu green - but I don't much like it, its a bit ditchwatery. Not very uplifting. However, I can see you can never please all the people all the time! This has made me realise we have more control over our screens than I thought, which is a good thing!

Cooks Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 ok but everything seems about face. I dont do well with change.... is there a dark room I can go to to lie down?? I will stick with it as its going to change anyway, but the fonts on the index page are just driving my eyes crazy they all mingle together .. or is that just my eyes?

Lewis Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Another one ... the thread titles all have the author under them + look bigger spaced in general, so it seems to take a lot longer to read the titles / find the one you want Is there a way to put them to the right hand side again, or is it just me that finds it annoying?
