[Closed] New Forum....

Or for something a bit more fun and jaunty;

"Sombrerotrack"

Too colourful!

Black and White, nice, Retrotrackworld.

Home page fits in with the style of the new mag.
Which is a nice "thing".

Knit knots is gonna love it.

meh, if the middleclasswhineycockbags stopped littering their pointless postings with emoticons.... it could even be worksafe.

😀

😳

Do the P-Subbers get the colour version ?.

serif fonts? wtf?
Oh, and agree with the 'all a bit John Major spitting image sketch' as posted up there ^^^

Not a fan, looks like it's a bit broken, I refreshed a few times expecting colour to appear!

Do not like.

Nice and stealthy for work use, not that bothered though as its only an internet forum.

Can't remember the old version now.

The coloured photos and ads do tend to grab the eye more.

WHAT?! Crazy man speaks.

I was just thinking that we should kill him DeBz and have done with it.

Yeh I know I don't think I treat it with the seriousness it deserves sometimes.

Repeat the forum psalm.

"This is not just a forum, this is real life.
Criticising this place, is akin to you ****ing my wife"

Just a note but it'd be great if there was an option to remove the facebook plugin - it's blocked at a lot of companies so using the forum will be constantly triggering 'attempt to access blocked content' flags...

erm

Check on my phone, it makes the txt stand out more, I like that.
Not so sure about the grey boarders and grey backgrounds to the forum links and search box, that just look unfinished (amateurish). Also the txt size on my comuter is just a bit big and look funny, yes I know I can change it but then it's too small or the spacing goes daft.

No doubt our feedback will all be ignored & we'll just get used to it, like every other forum change on here.

to remove the facebook plugin

I now need to wear my specs to view the forum
I guess the contrast is not as good as before?? - certainly on the black on grey boxes

Well least things are not black and white like they used to be.
errrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

There's certainly an extension for Chrome and FF that will do that for you

I might have to turn my ads back on again in a quest for some colour, it's all a bit Wizard of Oz pre the twister

Couple of bugs
1) "Advanced Search" mouseovers to white (and vanishes)
2) On the forum activity page, when you have "23 hours ago" for example, it runs onto two lines. Not a catastrophe, but it's harder to scan than previously. Image below:

Couple of preferences:
a) I find the mousovers on the top menu a bit slow and unresponsive. A little at odds with the minimal layout.
b) The search box is hard to spot as it's dark on white and not very textfield-y

Otherwise, I get it - newspaper/minimal/crisp. Maybe a little at the expense of legibility and comfort.

Any decent company IT system will prevent you installing a non-standard browser (or any other software) which for most companies means use of IE only...

I like it :thumbsup:
it's just less green which means it fits nicely into Outlook

I've already complained about performance issues with the Facebook widget. The problem is that it is dynamically generated, showing your friends, so the images aren't cached.

I thought my PC had booted up in safe mode. I did a virus scan and a Malwarebytes scan and a registry cleanup and a reboot.

But I love change and progress.

Another couple of 'kind of bugs'
1) Some green remains (perhaps deliberately) on the search results page. (and some blue, but that looks nice and 'default')
2) There's no mouseover effect the main navigation submenu (i.e. Premier menu).

Hi guys, the new design is just an interim holding page before we fully implement the new Singletrackworld, which will be mostly Flash based and will look something like [url= http://www.evangelcathedral.net/ ]this[/url].

It's a (metric) shedload faster on my iPhone 4 now, so despite the lack of colour and the ridiculous (even for 10 years ago) TNR font, I'm happy!

Incidentally, the forum as it was until yesterday was the only website I ever go on that caused my iPhone grief, used to slow it right down almost to a halt at times. This is a million times better!

will be mostly Flash based and will look something like this.

I now have epilepsy
thanks

which will be mostly Flash based

You sir, have just lost a [s]troll[/s] customer.

The problem is that it is dynamically generated, showing your friends, so the images aren't cached.

I don't have Facebook but it still seems to generate a load of lag when I use STW with my tablet

damn I was hoping more for a lingscars look to the place 🙁

Needs moar flash

The forum seems to be full of the same old bollox? Where is the bright new content?

mostly Flash based

Marvellous.

I like the grey, makes it look less like I'm not working.

Hi guys, the new design is just an interim holding page before we fully implement the new Singletrackworld, which will be mostly Flash based and will look something like this.

I have experience in Macromedia Director and can create the whole STW experience in Shockwave. I can deliver the whole project on cd-rom for easy distribution to your viewers. I can even include a 'space invaders' pre-loader for higher retention.

Should you require the Singletrack logo to be less 'static', I can look at that too. Burning, spinning, or perhaps just a subtle glint. I'm your man!
