The new forum is here!! (UPDATE: Just upgraded to 4.0.2!)

[James]

That's right, we're back, and hopefully even better than before!!!

We've got some work behind the scenes to get everything else back up and running, but the forums are on, and so is the new blog and website system! If you notice anything that's not quite right or have any questions then this is the place to ask!!

Cheers,
James.

Colours are horrible James. I'm one of the 10% of the male population that suffers from colour deficiency, (slight green deficiency for me), and the sight is not nice on the eyes. The top banner is nice and bold but the rest of the forum is very bleached and it's not easy to see new posts. I know new are bold v's non bold Red and there is a slight blue to the main forum speech bubbles when there is a new post in there but it gives me eye strain navigating around.

Any chance of sharpening things up and making it a little easier to read?

 

[James]

I've got a blue theme that I'm about to upload that you can use Dave if you want? Bear with me and I'll get a link to it

nice work james looks excellant well done :grinning:

 

[Kev]

Also just to mention, bear with us while we get everything as it should be.

I'm sure they'll be some querks here and there that will need ironing out.

This new advancement is just about as good as it gets, we purchased this setup at a discounted price of £85.00, can't quite remember the full RRP, but it was a fair discount and with this purchase we shall no longer have to purchase forum upgrades.

Enjoy the new design, make sure you have a good explore and let us know of any issues.

thanks
Kev

It's blue instead of red...

Choose the blue style in the bottom left of the website if that link didn't work

 

[James]

Hmm that should be fixed now....

[Shaun]

[James]

[NeX]

looks awesome one thing tho, what is with the google ads?

 

[micras69]

[James]

Working on that, they should only be visible by non-members!

 

[kennierobo]

I can see it also google ads that is

 

[Seb_]

Classy, light and clear: Brilliant !
Cheers !

 

[joesouthgate]

Looking good. How come it doesnt list people's cars on the left now?

 

[NeX]

i think it is awesome so many people like the new forum, i remember all the rants when facebook changed, people don't seem to like change.... except here

 

[kennierobo]

would be better without the adds! for me it makes it look cheap and nasty, everything else is spot on though.

As I said, I am looking into this and hope to sort it ASAP.

How do you upload photos? I cannot see a button in the manager to upload a file from my computer. Just a selection box to add it into a window but nothing to confirm the upload.......

Click manage attachments in the reply area then Add files, then select files, that should start uploading

mine works, make sure youve selected it from forum settings.

 

[Manny]

james while you at it could you put us a option where we can delete our threads?

 

[rydan79]

James, it won't let me reply to threads in the wanted section?, keep getting a vbulletin message saying i don't have permission?.

 

[mikey]

Just to reiterate on another post, i think the old version was better, but i'll have to get used to the new!

And where's the arcade??

 

[joesouthgate]

mine works, make sure youve selected it from forum settings.

Funnily enough I have. I always have had it switched on in settings and it still is but I have had 6 pms now with no emails come through.
