I don't like the new interface at all. Previously you could see the last comment and from who from the homepage. Plus too bright. Notice hardly many new posting or conversation going on.

You can still see the last comment and by who its just that you have to be logged in. When he changed the view it also knocked out all our cookies so when you first got here you were not automatically logged in hence the different view.

I personally do not like it, I think the color scheme previously worked a lot better.

I will have preferred old template colors with upgraded template. I still want to see all data on home page as it was before (I was able to see latest post in each forum without login in home page), now after template modification, i have to login to see......you may have observed also that template goes to 4 columns after login showing posts on home page

Like inkman said, it did some goofy stuff with the cookies.

It also doesn't "remember" you like the other side did. I THINK you just need to recheck the box when logging in. But in the past I NEVER logged in because I was always logged in. Might be the same for others also.

Yes...just check the little box before you log in and you will stay logged in.

In the administration control panel he can set it to have different skins.

Turning on this feature will place a toggle switch at the bottom of the page for your choice of color.

I do like the "last unread thread" button. That was something of a frustration before.

I found myself having to read your boy's post twice sometimes to get to the new post.

Most of the software upgrades are nice (image viewer is better than previous).

But there is no link to report bad post... There ya go Barnes... Open door policy to wreak havoc till Marc comes back to see it. Oh wait... you already started.

BTW, "Who's online" being disabled was probably something that should have been done a LONG time ago.

SOME people were abusing that system to stalk the hell out of people and other bad things.

I'm sure it was a very calculated move on Marc's part and a good one in my opinion.

You can't ruin everything for a few.

Many times..I see who is online..then I send them a private message.You can still see who is online on the home page...but it is not the same.There is a reason for all the buttons provided...You can't not use them just cause you can't control everyone

The private message takes the cake...... 5 minutes apart...LOL

When someone is here trying to learn...I may want to ask 5 different people something in 5 minutes.
