new layout

[jimm]

got it now

[erol]

Using Firefox (again) but not Chrome, I occasionally find that the first character of the heading is missing a bit at the left hand side...

Keith - are you 100% sure you are not zoomed in on firefox over 100%, in IE and Chrome Cntrl and + or - key zooms in and out. Might well not be the cause but being zoomed in over 100% could cause something like what I am seeing in your screen shot.

Erol, I get it sometime and am looking into it.

Sophie, glad we have not lost you. You'll get used to it after a day or so, I found it a little challenging to start with but it really is much better than old style.

[Keithcaley]

Hi Erol, I just checked the same thread again, and it looks OK this time! - it does seem to be a bit 'random'...

I tried zooming in, and got up to 300% without replicating the issue, so It doesn't seem to be that, although thanks for the suggestion.

**addendum**

Now THIS thread is doing it! - and it wasn't before...

**addendum 2**

and NOW it isn't !

I am stupid i can not find'my new style' however happy with old format but was curious.

[Soner]

Here you go, just follow instructions:

[davedee]

Its happened of its own accord cheers

[Soner]

Lol, old styles have just been removed and you now have the default green metro style,

[jofra]

Oh dear! I have just been changed to the new format - I'm afraid I do not like it; preferred the previous style by far.
But as there is no option, I'll have to get used to it.....

[Soner]

Format is very similar to Old format, only main difference is that avatars are on the right. Give it a couple of days and you will like it.

I did post that I managed to update but didn't much like the layout, rather similar to my recently revamped virgin email & managed to return to old layout. Here I am again with most definitely new layout but didn't like green. Tried blue, teal & red which turned out to be "violet red", that'll do thank you.

I really didn't like it at first, but it seems to be growing on me - or is that MOSS?

[erol]

Change is always jarring but It is imo, better. It is cleaner and clearer. Very android 'material design' ish to me.

Just in case anyone is wondering why not give people the choice of old and new as they prefer, every style that a forum supports adds to the overhead of customising and maintaining that forum. This is mildly true of style options that only affect 'colour' but it is very true of supporting multiple styles affecting 'layout'.

[Soner]

The more Styles there are the more work involved for me. So I would rather use the new style and rid of the old. Also, the new style keeps us up to date with the times.

Give it a few days and it will grow on you.

I sent an email as I was locked out, when I went for the new look forum, but suddenly all is well.Hurray!!!!

Hi Soner,
The forum clock is app 8 minutes slow
But the post time, seems to be 8 minutes fast.

I know there is issue with time. Trying to fix this.

[Hammerhead]

Looks Good. Changed mine to Metro Teal. Easy on the eye.

teal blue on mine it looks great!!!

[Hammerhead]

it looks great teal blue for me

[sophie]

I couldn't get on with Metro Teal (a bit too wishy washy for me) so changed to Metro Red and its great. Anyone who like me, preferred the Purple (ARE YOU THERE MARION), then Metro Red is a very good alternative. Give it a go!!

[Cally]

Like you Sophie, I thought Teal was wishy washy & the purple/red is more defined, but it is my fav colour

[LooseBoots]

I also am using teal and have to say I love the new format.

So much more user friendly...............IMHO

[Keithcaley]

I use 'View unread posts' & I think that a 'Mark forums read' link on that page would be really handy!

...Please?

[Belfast Belle]

God I hate this new layout.

[Mollie the cat]

Its not for me either, I realise the need for advertising but all those adverts flashing by drives me mad, bring back the old I say.

[sophie]

I thought the old system had Ads that "drove by" at the top? Once there are a couple of messages on the thread the moving Ads at the top go out of sight in any case don't they?

[jock1]

Not a good layout.. bring back the birch
