Missy Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Very soon I'll be having the forums upgraded, so if you can't access them for a few hours, that's why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Ok. Do I get my own page!? Seriouslay though, are you upgrading them today, in a few hours, or is this a general thing like over the next few days or weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted July 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think it will happen today, but it might take a few days. Sorry I can't give a solid answer, but it's being done for me, and I haven't been told exactly when it will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 No, it's cool. Thanks for posting about it and letting everyone know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted July 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 In fact, I can't currently access the Admin control panel, so it might be happening at this moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 I like most of the new options, but I must say that the new version kinda hurts my eyes. Dunno if it's the different layout or whatever.... And no I haven't been staring at my screen for a lengthy period of time. But even as I'm writing this I have to almost squint to see everything.

Missy Posted July 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Here are some of the changes that the upgrade made: Skins: I'm not crazy about the new skin, but there aren't other options available right now. Profiles: Because it looked wonky, I had to delete the custom profile fields. Quotes: Quote trees are now color-coded. Spoilers: You no longer have to highlight text to read spoilers. Instead, you now click a little box. Like this. And because I'm too lazy to type a full list of new features, read this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 It'll take a little adjusting, but overall, I like the new layout. ^^b! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 The skin is a bit... fugly, but the new features are solid. Nice work, Sims. I guess I'll let you keep your job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Can you use bigger avatars now? They seem to be giant sized. edit: It says they are the same size but they are bigger on my screen than they used to be. That's probably the different tv I'm using.

Missy Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 The space for them is larger, but they still can't be bigger than 150x150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 A thought occurs. Is there a "Skip to first unread post" button that I'm missing? Because those were handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 It'll take a little adjusting, but overall, I like the new layout. ^^b! Basically what Venneh said. It's going take getting used to, but it's nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drqshadow Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 How do you see new posts? Before their was the view new posts button. Nevermind, I can use the todays active content button at the bottom, aslo editing posts is quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 After the first time you click on a topic and go to the latest posts, it seems to automatically take you there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I leave for the weekend and the whole place goes to hell... I kid. I do have two problems though, The forums take for ever to load now on my computer(s)and is there any way I can make it look like the old forums?

Missy Posted July 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 You're the first person to mention any kind of slowness. It loads at the same speed for me. And no, it can't look like the old forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 You're the first person to mention any kind of slowness. Acthully it looks like this was a problem on my end. And no, it can't look like the old forums. *Emo Tear* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Wait, Doug. What kind of connection are you on? That might have something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Robinson Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Things are looking a bit out of wack on my laptop. Only when using IE7 of course, Firefox looks fine. Examples: Also the first post on every page is really wide, the last really thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted July 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Yeah, I've noticed some issues with IE as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
