Forum Upgrade - Any Issues?

[MasseyWV]

I just noticed that when editing my signature, after uploading a properly sized signature picture, the "Insert Signature Picture" button doesn't work.

This is a long thread and perhaps I have missed it, but the search function does not seem to work. This is the first time I have tried to use it since the upgrade. When I click on the "search" I get nothing.

Try the rest of them ... I can not use the following.

AMD not to mention this is the first I've tried to add a picture ... I really don't like that new layout.

Ditto!:thumbsup:

I know a lot of us old farts don't like change. (a sure sign of getting old btw) But change is normally a good thing and I think it's great that the guys working on these changes are making such effort to lessen the impact. Kudos.

I just noticed that the forum now fills my screen and the space that was formerly empty because I block ads is GONE!

I guess I spoke too soon, now it's BACK! :mur:

When I get to the bottom of a page there is no way to go back to the same forum without fishing through the "quick navigation" menu....kind of a pain. On the old format I could go back to the sub forum with a click on that quick nav button.

I know you must stil be working on things, but today any old post that I made in the past does not even show the thread envelope...it's just blank.

!

i noticed those as well..

In my view this new upgrade is NOT an improvement.

Much harder to read with less contrast, smaller fonts, location of new comments to a thread , and I haven't even tried some of the features already mentioned by others.

I enjoy IMPROVING things but NOT just to change to make something different.

The new software probably makes things better for the administrator and for maintaining and servicing the site but it has made it less enjoyable for me to use.
