Prettyphile Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 those lame tags around it In any case however, I'll just go ahead and complain about the same basic stuff that everybody else is complaining about: The board in it's state right now is kind of ugly, but seeing as we just converted I'm sure the appearance will be fixed as time goes by. I do rather miss the larger icons, so I hope that can be worked out. I also kinda miss having seperate icons and profile pictures, but if we can't fix that than I'm sure I won't be severly disappointed. I like . . . [ center ] [ / center ] [ i ] [ / i] tags! :| wtb option of going back to them prease? The rest I totally again with! One last thing, the default font is huge. A blind person wouldn't have issues seeing it. Font size 12 or lower for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SicK As mY SecReTs Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I love the new layout! but there's few things I don't like 1. avis are too small,would be great if you guys resize it 2.skin is kinda boring and simple,and looks kinda facebook as kat said 3.and I don't like that the site is kinda narrow,it was on full screen then and was way more better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby.Jude9 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 But the tags (Is that even what they're called: tags? IDK, that's what we're calling them now) would always screw me up! I love being able to see exactly what my post will look like when it I publish it while I'm still making it. (But maybe that's just me being too much of a perfectionist...)Oh and one more thing I guess I'll complain about: In the new software, attached images are listed in a line with bullets. It's kind of weird and ugly, but that's just my opinion.Other than that, I also just noticed that the new software auto saves your posts for you as you're writing them so that, maybe, oh, I don't know, right in the middle of making this really, REALLY great post your Firefox crashes, not all hope will be lost for you! And, if someone makes a new post while you're in the middle of making one, it gives you the option to view it or not while you're still making your post which is also totally awesome.I'M SORRY, I'M JUST GONNA SAY IT, YOU GUYS CAN COMPLAIN ALL YOU WANT BUT THIS NEW SOFTWARE IS LIKE 7589420175 TIMES BETTER THAN THE OLD ONE!(*Please ignore Jude, as she's currently suffering from "Noob who is fascinated with web develpment" syndrome.)

Ophelia_Immortal Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 It will take some getting used to. Been on BZ too long for it to be an easy switch. but overall I think it's a massive improvement. I do think the color scheme is ugly and pics do take awhile to load, but other then that - I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on slower disks (because i needed the extra capacity) but if you can show me an example I will definantly try to speed up the site.

SicK As mY SecReTs Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 well don't know what Ophelia_Immortal meant,but sometimes forum loads slowly or it is cuz of it's just changed ??? :| and why is it that when I copy something background comes with it too ???

I think i still need to tweak the parameters to make it more optimized, or maybe memcache or something isnt working correctly. Please be patient while we sort all these issues out, this is still going *WAY* better then the last major upgrade we had where the whole site was falling over with a few users.

TheBaronOfFratton Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Avatar size fixed! (setting is called a really strange name :| ) ^I still can't get my old one back on - it's 150x150 and 1.7MB (courtesy of donbot). :| Which pics? Avatars or thumbnails? We are on slower disks (because i needed the extra capacity) but if you can show me an example I will definantly try to speed up the site. ^Thumbnail attachments are taking FOREVER for me. It takes aaages to load up - and then you have to save it and it takes aaages again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I don't think I was fully prepared for just how different the update was going to be, but the more I look around, the more I like it. Certain things will take some getting used to (we Brits are still upset about the time Marathon became Snickers), but we'll get there. Give it a month, we'll all have forgotten what the old forum even looked like. Promise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
