Sorry Admin but I don't like the new look of the forum...
 
Not to sure if I like it either, I find that when I click reply to thread it is the same a quick reply. If I want to add smilies :mad: links etc. I have to click advanced. In fact the reply to thread & quick reply are the same, also the smilies are difficult to see they seem really small..
Also when I logged on it accepted my logon but said I didn't have permission to view the page.:confused:
 
Now now kiddies. You know the rules. Any dissent and Sir will have you excommunicated, forbidding you to darken his towels again.

Also noticed that the 'Thanks' has been reset, not that I'm bothered about it just an observation. Will try the logging out & deleting the cookies for this site.
 
Hi All
Come on you lot out there give Mr Admin a chance. I not struck on the new look forum but thats only because I got used to the old one so now I've got another learning curve to go through.---theres bound to be a few 'gliches' here and there.
Bye for now

I like the site it is clearer and easy to use - with anything new you always get teething problems so come on you lot give Phil a chance - if you have any questions about the site send them to Phil. The older we get the less we like change unless we are changing our vans or M/Homes.

Keep up the good work Phil - 1st class
 
I agree the new look is different but that is all it is..will take a while to get used to it...only hope that this is change for the better and not just for changes sake.
 
hmm why change things that work, cannot find smillies and now spending time looking round the site to get used to the new look I do prefer the old one but its admins choice he does own the site

Q)why change things that work"UQ) why do people change their Motorhomes every year or so that are perfectly OK and work well. Answer: to keep up with the times and looks, the same with web sites they are changing all the time but we get used to them. :)
 
Sorry but this new layout looks like it was designed by a 2 year old
 
Hi all well I tried to log on last night using my bookmarks and got a message saying the site was closed for mantenance, I tried several times and got the same message, so later I Googled Wild and got on , I thought WOW I like this, so well done whoever changed the site to what it is now , I for one LIKE it.
 
Hi,

The new theme is the standard theme of vbulletin 4, I spent eight hours on the upgrade yesterday and went to bed at 2.30am.
I thought it was better to leave the site open rather than closing it for days while the work is done. I have tried to keep the site as functional as possible.

The thanks system will be going and be replaced with a like / dislike system.
The theme will be changing

Soon all will be running smoothly again
 
I know the older we get... the least change we like! Remember when Wogan left R2, I thought my mornings would never be the same, but it's OK!

And for the record... NO I DON'T LIKE IT EITHER!!! But I'm sure we'll get used to it... but WHY??

Like others I'm sure it's change for change sake (and nothing to do with Phil) now who the hell is V.Bulletin????????????
 
Sorry Admin - I design websites and I just don't like the look of this...

Not talking about the functions but the old site was more "happy" and Welcoming due to font and colours and general layout.

Ok let me say this again...

This is the standard theme of Vbulletin 4, once I have sorted out the more important issues I will change the theme.

Also I have been designing websites for 12 years and have a Web Computing degree.
 
im sure once 'finished' and we have all learned our way around it will be great .
Thanks for the hard work phil, but please dont spit the dummy out if you get a bit of stick from some members !!
 
After a few visits I think it looks very slick and easier on the eye. Like with most software it's not a case of "If it ain't broke don't fix it" The changes are driven by new software releases and support. So if the support service (including updates) are not given to older software version then you have no option but to upgrade to a newer version and make the relevant changes to the format.

Good on yer Phil - Keep up the good work!
 
TBH I quite like it (for what its worth, as a freeloader)

certainly seen worse, look what happened over on Touring & tenting he made such a fkp, I came over here almost immediately




there is that enough toadying
:cool:
