Sneak peek

[jimnyc]

I'm testing out a new look for the board which will coincide with the latest vB upgrade that I haven't completed yet. Scroll to the bottom of the board on any page - you'll see a drop down box allowing you to choose different "styles" for the board. Choose the one I'm working on which is "Hexcell Fluid".

It's much brighter than this style so be prepared. It has an easier feel to it though, IMO, and is easier to read threads and get around the board. I redesigned a few logos and added a generic "name" for the header. I also applied all the cosmetic changes and "hacks" to follow the new style. But it'll be a work in progress for now and adjustments will need to be made - and some based on your feedback.

Staff has seen it already and there was mixed feedback. It's liked, it's liked but a few colored areas are off, and one fine young lady who I won't name who posts as "Abbey" absolutely hates it!

Feedback? ...

If it ain't broke...

Speaking of broke..lately (for several days now) when I go to the reply box it's very slow and jerky.

Sarry dude it's not to my taste, also there does not seem to be a 'new posts' button in the top right like there is nomally. However, I can see why some would like it as it does look cleaner.

It's there, just a different style menu

The SQL load has been a bit high lately. All clients on this server share the same SQL server. It was very slow this morning and I opened a ticket. They claimed to have tossed a client that was abusing the services.

Obviously a woman with exquisite taste!

I like it, but I have a suspicion that others will feel as you do.

So I'm getting the feeling that you guys aren't into a new look for the board? LOL

Is it that THIS new look stinks, or do you guys just prefer to leave well enough alone and stick to what we know?
