Comment of the Year goes to...

Those of you who don't have hemorrhoids and are switching back to the old layout right away, why don't you give it a longer try and give us some more feedback. How about an hour of going about your regular forum surfing?

Do it for the guy who can't because the hemorrhoids are causing too much crankiness.

Here's one... Where's the "View First Unread" link? I used to click on New Posts ... Open thread ... View First Unread. Now I have to skip to the last post in the thread and compare dates...

I got e-mail about subscribed threads but the links were only text. Had to cut and paste into the browser. Real pain in the a$$! Could you please fix it soon?

Little circular/down arrow next to Thread title will take you to "Go to First New Post" since your last visit

One major complaint about the Next Gen layout,.......when you click on thread,...it brings you to the first page of that thread, even if it has 100 pages in it. I don't want to read the first page again. Is there anyway you can make it so user can pick last page if they wanted to? I spent some time last night on the Next Gen layout, and I honestly don't like it. No offense, just being honest.

No offense taken, we'd be floored if you thought the new layout was perfect right out of the gate. We mean it when we say we want to hear what you think about the functionality and design. We're taking feedback and running with it.

The left circled area still has that little arrow which takes you to first unread and that right circled area will still take you to the last post, just like in the old layout.

Thank you. That's what I'm talking about.
I'll have to give it another go.

I only like the old layout. The new one or what ever they are calling it has to much white space and looks crazy. There is nothing wrong with the old layout. So much easier to read. Leave it a loan..

We made some changes! Most notable is adding some grey to take away from all the white space that was clearly not well-liked, but some bug fixes as well. What do you think?

I'm issuing a challenge to those of you giving Next Gen a try:
  • Make a couple of posts
  • Upload a photo
  • Subscribe to a thread
  • Search for something
  • Whatever else you can think of that you might do on a regular basis
Just try and do some of the things you normally do and give us some specific feedback on what you do and don't like or how we can improve.

There's a prize in it for some of you who provide the best feedback and are willing to jump on a call with us.
Namely, a sweet Amazon gift card. <-------

Honestly, I am getting used to the new layout now. I like it.
One thing I would LOVE to have, and I'm not sure if others feel this way,......but a "LIKE" or "THANKS" button would be killer!
Thanks.
