New Skin for the forums - your feedback essential!

**LifesGoodPhoenix** · 02-24-2012, 01:24 PM

yeah, keep multi-quote. ditch news tip.

**japhule** · 02-24-2012, 01:26 PM

Is the default font in bold also or does it just seem that way because of the use of a larger font size? Not sure if I'm a fan of the larger font in general...

Epic fail etc

I like it, not only because it appears I'm featured in it (unless this is some jedi mind trick), but because it looks clean yet still maintains readability.

Look at RootzWiki. Love the site, but for me, it's just not that easy to read.

doesnt matter to me....just want to get past this thread so i can go read the forum i want to instead of wasting my time on a single feature...there are other things than multi-quote that need handled first.

**Flur** · 02-24-2012, 01:48 PM

I like the new look in the attachment - it's cleaner and easy to read, IMO.

Please keep multi-quote. I've never used news tip and I'm not even sure what it does.

**boomerbsg** · 02-24-2012, 01:48 PM

Multi quote should remain!

**dmmarck** · 02-24-2012, 01:51 PM

Might be a good idea to start a poll to keep MQ, News Tip, Both, Neither, etc.

And also a poll for the New Look v. Old Look generally.

**leroybrute** · 02-24-2012, 01:53 PM

Looks great

**dmmarck** · 02-24-2012, 01:56 PM

Oh and that first post in the attachment is definitely not mine, the 2 other posts are though

.

**PSUGradAtl** · 02-24-2012, 01:57 PM

The image worked for me... I can see it.
I've never used the Multi Quote feature. Not sre what the news tip is...

**FrankXS** · 02-24-2012, 01:58 PM

Keep THANKS, LIKE, MULTI-QUOTE, QUOTE, REPLY and QUICK PREPLY. Ditch News Tip.

-Frank

**Devinator** · 02-24-2012, 02:04 PM

I don't like the new proposed look at all. Sure it's clean, but, it isn't very clear where one post ends and another begins. Maybe the colors just need some tweaking. I generally prefer a simple UI anyways, no need to gloss things too much. Then again, maybe it's just the way the forum displays on the OPs box, could look a bit different on mine.

And, I don't like the way the font looks. For all I know it's the same font, just in bold, but, it doesn't look good on the screen.

I am always one for change, so, this isn't me just being all "wah" about change, I just think the forums look great the way they are, and, the screenshot posted is in no way an improvement IMO.

I guess I'm okay with the moving of the quote/reply button and like/thanks button, but, I am disappointed to see the lack of multi-quote.

**jon_stewart** · 02-24-2012, 02:07 PM

I'm delighted you're taking the time to both work on the forums and ask for feedback. Go for it is what I say!

**bigphokus** · 02-24-2012, 02:16 PM

I really don't know what's better at the time most of my browsing is done on my galaxy prevail. Being a boost mobile entry level android in Da area I'm n I barely get that pages to load in a timely manor.

**Bsheedy** · 02-24-2012, 02:18 PM

I like the new look. Have never used muliti quote or news tip.

**DigiCowboy** · 02-24-2012, 02:19 PM

I like the prominence of the message body in the new format.

**jstntp** · 02-24-2012, 02:22 PM

Yes for Multi-Quotes, No need for News-Tips.

**CardcaptorRLH85** · 02-24-2012, 02:23 PM

Personally I use the Thanks, Like, Multi-Quote, Quote, Reply and Quick Reply functions and I've seen others use them as well. Honestly though I've only ever clicked the News Tip button accidentally.

As for the rest of the changes in Phase one however, I like the new look ^_^

**pastryman123** · 02-24-2012, 02:26 PM

I am not too fond of multi quote.

News tip.. I think this is a feature we can live without.

For the love of God put multi quote back.

**rediroc** · 02-24-2012, 02:28 PM

click the box above the image to see the image to see it in full size. Worked fine for me

**enduser2941** · 02-24-2012, 02:30 PM

Sometimes change is good and improvements show responsibility of the owners of the forums to notice areas in need of an update, people raising complaints / issues, listening and taking action. Kudos to you guys. Hats off. It's never easy when people who are complacent see change, but in the end it sounds like it will all work out for the better. I applaud you!

As for those to features, mult-iquote never worked for me (and perhaps others) and news tips, I never understood it's purpose. There for I sure would not be missing either one! Best of luck with the upgrades!

**craigrn16** · 02-24-2012, 02:35 PM

Don't take away multi-quote

**NEllis921** · 02-24-2012, 02:40 PM

I like the new skin, its bold, brighter, easier to read. Feels like less clutter.

**alandr** · 02-24-2012, 02:46 PM

I'm fairly new to this forum and the features that I'm just about to list may already exist here (my apologies for the lack of knowledge) but this is what I'd like to possibly have on this forum:
1. Currently in order for me to see latest reply for my post I need to go : login > search > Find my Threads.
Would that be possible to take me to my Threads right after I login?
2. When I open my thread, could the replies be sorted in DESC order so I will see the latest respond first?
3. For some reason I'm not getting an email notification when new replies posted to my thread.
I’m guessing that particular email would have a direct link to my thread, correct?
I think if the issue # 3 would get resolved that I should forget #1 and 2 then.
Thank you
