This one will be fine so long as the MP2K Blue theme comes back with a vengence. As it is, it is so white I can hardly bare to look at it.
personally i think its about time AF upgraded their look. i like it better, i just cant find the user cp..
In the links to the very top left, one is called 'Settings' (you can only see it with a dark banner, so you may need to reload once or twice o_O). That takes you to your usercp.
I liked the old one.
Actually, I liked the old one BEFORE it even better.
I've seen a few vb upgrades and to be honest, I usually prefer the older version on an end user features note. I have not seen a version of the vb store quite the same in newer vb forums which saddens me to some extent. BUT, look under the hood and that's where the newer vb really shines (or so I've heard at any rate). I haven't modded a vb forum in over a year (possibly even two) so I haven't had any experience any time recently. ^^;;
I'll wait til it's 'finished' before I give my final judgement but I can say quite assuredly that some things won't be quite the same, and sometimes that's in a negative way.
I like the new one but I have lost almost all of my points. Anyway, there are no vbplaza options for the time being.. so it doesn't matter.. haha...
There is a big difference between the two updates. Here on AF there are some kewl new features that are very much welcome. And while at times it does annoy me(not being able to see settings on a bright banner) its still a work in progress and gets better everyday.
YouTubes new layout however did noting worthwhile. It was just a change for the sake of paying some programmer to make things look prettier and ultimately just ended up ruining some things. A lot of things are far harder to look at. the description box, now underneath, was far better on the left and the I actually find myself looking for the subscription button at times.
now the blue background makes it feel like the old one, nice and welcoming.
Well.. I prefer the old one because I could navigate it better and the space between the post and the signature area is really large and bugs me.
But I LOVE the new features. If we could have a smoother version of the old and all the features of the new it would be perfect but I honestly don't mind. I chose the old in the poll because :]
at first glance i tought the upgrade is way better, but then i found out that i lost my sig's link T.T and my avatar
It's alright... though at first I thought there was something wrong with my internet. I dunno, for me the new forum seems somewhat incomplete. But just like others have said, in about a week or two I probably won't give a damn...
I just want to change my name to Diocletian again. :(
I leave for a little bit and I come back to this...
What prompted the change, anyway?
My user title was gone, as was my avatar. I replaced my avatar but how do I get my user title back? My point count also decreased. Lame.
besides loosing my signature...this one is cooler.plus as the mod said it is still in process so it is too soon to judge.
Definitely the new one, when I cam here, I was wondering why you guys didn't have visitor messaging...
I believe the change was coming for a while. I'm sure I saw someone even ask in the old forums when the place would be upgraded.
As for the user title, I do not believe it has been implemented yet. And yeah, everyone lost everything before May 9th (lemme cover myself here, I'm pretty sure the 9th was the date), problem with the backups. Which is why, buh-bye old LordShinigami, hello new, slimmer version.
As much as I miss the old forum that I knew and loved, the new one is definitely better.
There's plenty of neat new things for all of us to get a hang of, and old things that aren't yet back for us to enjoy, but the AF Staff are getting everything taken care of pretty fast.
This one is too big for me. ><
There are things about this one I like again.
The groups are worth it.
