New Website!

[shirlthegirl43]

My Online/Offline buttons look no different...

What I now see is 'Online now' and a lightbulb, on a light green background, or 'Offline now' on a darker green background. Used to see Online on a green background or Offline on a red background.

We did have them before, but they were nicer

Or the Offline/Online Now button thingies.

HeyWayne mentioned this earlier. Has no-one ever seen these before? Even when I wasn't a Mod I could see htese. They're not new to me

[Shortie]

OOOooooooooooooooooooooooo I just noticed the links to other boards down the bottom. Very snazzy!

But my Brown Banner has gone....well... green

I liked my Brown Banner.

I liked your brown banner too!

In fact, I don't like the MOM/Admin/Moderator banners at all, sorry.
Or the Offline/Online Now button thingies. Seasprout's header looks all higgledy piggledy now - nothing lines up!

On a more positive note, I do like the new index page header...

Sorry, I'm old and I hate change - I panicked when I logged on tonight. However, I suppose I'll get used to it and at least the site is not freezing on me tonight. Why do we need all the huge piccies and graphics when you log on, though?

You got a medal though

[seasprout]

Well I thought I would treat myself as we got the new site and forum live

Mods and the MOTM also have new badges to fit in with the new style

More treats coming soon aswell for you all! Stay tuned

Well done to all the team involved in the work and new design, its brill!

...Plus if you wanted, you could easily close your history whilst using the grapevine if you wanted by using a shortcut perhaps it's Ctrl+H ?.

Oh thanks for that I'd never have thought of it.

So you can't make it autofit the browser window then?

We could do yes, but we won't be doing this in the near future i'm affraid.

One of the problems with a fluid layout is that lines can become too long to read in monitors with larger resolutions, so with a fixed width you know where you stand.

So far all the comments have been positive which is excellent!
