New Look Forum - Hope you like it (you can change back if not)

I think it's great. I like to new style of the buttons and think most things appear easy to use. I like when you quote, the quoted text is a different colour so it's easy to spot.

No problems with all the green, but it would be great for the future if we could choose our own background colour. Some people do just prefer white as it's easier to read against.

The user details on the left seems a little on the large side. Not sure if it or just my imagination but the main page area seems narrower and the user ID name seems much bigger than before. As these are minor details to it's use, it would make sense to make them a little smaller to create more space in the text areas.....

The etiquette symbol does look like one of the stick people has punched the other one out. Not sure if that was the intention...... :rotfl:

i love the colours, very summery.

very slow still tho.

for those winging about facebook it has always been possible (if you know how to do it) MSE have just made it easier. Simples - don't make your ID recognisable if you don't want what you post put on facebook (it won't appear on YOUR facebook page just because someone else has shared it!!!!!!!!)

whats the CAG ?

oh dear, is that what i think it is - they never implemented the preferred by many box that i suggested here then - then i shall never change !

i darent ask about the buttons issue had i ? - oh go on then - are they the nice old blue and white bold buttons or the silly black icon ones ?

Sorry the CAG remark was a faceitious comment - apologies for that!

I seen your request first time and even thanked you lol - yep, its that HUGE great big silly waste of space that occupies post 1 - so next time I start a thread post 1 will be filtered for MSE garbage and post 2 will start the actual topic that I wanted to start a thread about in the first place!

Its ugly, unnecessary and totally baffling as to why I would want my employer who happens to be in the Financial Services industry to see my threads about unenforceability and other legal methods to get back at banks/lenders etc.....

How strange indeed

Mmm not sure will give it a couple of days. Like the on/off change of colours though that is nicer but really hope that the speed gets better very soon as that is a real pain.

Unuseably slow even on a high speed connection.

Love the new look, but the site is very slow today

We are working on the slowness. It's only temporary. Things will improve throughout the day. Many thanks .

Looks much cleaner now.

also, because the spam button is at the top of the thread does that mean if you click on it the whole thread will be classed as spam and not just a single post like before?

It has been always like this IIRC.

if not how will you determine that the single post is spam?

You could try the "Abuse" button in every post ...

Looking good so far. Speeds will increase, I have faith :T

Not too keen on the size of the online idicator - is rather large.
