droundi 0 Posted October 21, 2010 OK, it is now. Think i was pressing the ''post button above message box rather than one under the icons. Is it just me that finds this confusing.....clearly my age Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mazy Run 0 Posted October 21, 2010 The pink version is better than the grey, but there is still too much dead space for my liking. It could be more compact to make it easier to read without having to scroll constantly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ref89 0 Posted October 21, 2010 The pink needs to be toned down a bit, its a bit bright on the eyes. Burning like fire...Also when accessing via a mobile browser it is not picking that up anymore and so the full site is loading with all that javascript in the menus we can''t use....

way out west 0 Posted October 21, 2010 Too much white space, too much scrolling required. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Poirot 1 Posted October 21, 2010 I definitely prefer the new pink colours to this horrible grey colour I''ve got at the moment, but the spacing is still too wide for my liking around each posting. If the margins could be shrunk a bit it will look good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted October 21, 2010 Why is the page layout different for each blog please?Absent Friend is set in a Pink Un page with ads etc, as before on the old site. The others all come up on a plain page. It has also reduced the font size, or it seems much smaller than before anyway; due to the page width perhaps.Just feel consistency is important.

I know, I know............It''s the important stuff that needs fixing.And the first one is that the whole new setup just seems like a huge, sanitized waste of space more thyan anything else.The old site was warm and ours; this is sterile, cold and theirs.Sorry if I offend, but that''s the way I see it.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted October 24, 2010 Will the PMs menu page be amended as well please? At the moment all the boxes are badly spaced; some squashed with words split and other too big. Looks terrible.No offence taken Bly but felt it needed to be pointed out as us bloggers are interested in that page, obviously.Shame the smileys didn''t transfer over. It''s quite wierd reading posts that were posted prior to the change and have all the wording/marks rather than the smiley. Can be a tad confusing as well as spoiling the flow in longer posts.Yes, I think the board has been much quieter CA since the new layout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
