Sneaky Peek - New look MSE forums

anewman

May already have been covered, but user names without spaces of more than 15 characters do not display on one line and it puts the remaining characters onto the next line.

its not just me getting very confused with the thanks button then....its showing the thank this post button, and an option to remove my thanks shows up on previous posts once i thank a newer post....so i now cant figure if i thanked it before, or today or just this minute.

I love the new look, easy to use, nice and clear.

Well done everyone

I like the look, but am struggling with the Signature part not being completely separate - I keep reading the siggy as part of the post!

I like it alot. Apart from two things.

Firstly the online/offline buttons seem far too big.

And secondly the line seperating the signature isn't long enough for me. Makes it look part of the post with some sigs.

But looks great other than that.

Edit: Don't like the fact it turns the 'er' in my username on to another line either. :undecided

I wish there was another feature where you could look at the last posts you had wrote on, it would save having to trawl thru the forum looking for them.
No doubt when it is launched everyone will get used to it, and will keep us entertained trying to work it out!

user tools at the top you mean?

hi, i find the easiest way is to go to your 'user name' 'view public profile' 'statistics' then 'find all posts' takes a couple of secs & all your last posts will show,

Just 3 things that spoil it for me.

1. No 'GO' button on the Forum Jump

2. Signature is hard to separate from the post

3. View status box is too big and makes the post disappear down the page, I preferred that along the top

Apart from that it looks very nice

is it running faster under this skin? is it running via a different server or something?
just seems quicker for me

was thinking the same, seems to be running very quick

I have been thinking about this for a while, is it possible that the "Abuse" button on the forums could be linked to a web form of some kind to submit abuse messages? I, and i'm sure several others use web based email, and clicking the link fires up Outlook for me.

Just thought i'd suggest it as you said that you would consider changes :j
