this new forum layout SUCKS!

alphajerk · 5th March 2005

is it just me or is it terribly hard to read? the avatars/name over the post make everythign run together and i cant even tell what is going on anymore.

mizzle · 5th March 2005

I thought I shorted a circuit in me head when I showed up today- going "Did it look like this yesterday?", or "Did I get that drunk last night?".
I suppose I'll get used to it though.

mizzle · 5th March 2005

Not just you. I didn't even see a reply button. I had to hit quote.

AND THE BIG GEARSLUTZ BUTTON NO LONGER WORKS!

I'm dizzy.

alphajerk · 5th March 2005

man, i musta drank a LOT of moonshine last night....

SiliconAudioLab · 5th March 2005

Oh wait! There's the reply button. Maybe I already *DID* start drinking but don't know it.

Dave Martin · 6th March 2005

Avatars on the left are MUCH better. Now, can we get the "Post Reply" button moved to the bottom right side of the page?

zemlin · 6th March 2005

Thank you. Much easier reading this way.

Dor · 6th March 2005

search doesn't produce any results. Is this being worked on?

I just love that we can hide the avatars now. Without them I can really read the content... Now if we can just disable the smilies in each post! I just hate things blinking at me while I am trying to read.

Oh, yeah, the ads are for good things, but the more they blink and flash the sooner I leave the page! I know this is like hating sports reports, but still uit makes me change the channel.

Call me wierd if you like, but for me it is words and music, not flashing things and bright colors...

Jules · 10th March 2005

You can do a LOT of user tweaks in in the Contror Panel that affect the look of the forum, try it!

10th March 2005

...but not disable smilies that writers put in their posts. I can survive, but disabling them only applies to one's own sending posts.

alphajerk · 10th March 2005

new forum is looking GREAT now, thats for all your hard work getting my petty grips about it resolved...

gpcramseysoral · 14th March 2005

Sorry if someone already touched on this. I like the fact that you can now enter a section (like remote possibilities) and it will give you the new posts. That was my main thing with the old formatt. I didn't like that I had to sort through all the posts for every section of the forum.

Ruphus · 14th March 2005

For high resolution screens the standard font size is too small. With the old GS Bulletin SW you could encrease by chosing "big size" in your browsers view options. Maybe this nice feature could be restored ...?

And I asked Jules long ago if they could free "he_he" from the icon, because while being a liked way of expression you can´t type it as the laughing icon would be inserted instead.
How about giving the icon a more unusual lettering like "huha" or whatever, and give us back my beloved "he he he"?
