Re: wow what a change
Wow! Big changes.
But…………Strangely ………..It is not fully compatible with off-brand browsers. Firefox is having trouble wrapping text to fit the window. The problem seems to be with the code in sigs . In this thread, Tesco’s sig is displaying one long line of url’s where as in IE6.1 it gets a line break after the bracket (]).

Re: wow what a change
I don't like it but the reason why may be I'm an old grumpy
Don't like much html in forums and I miss the reverse order.
And My signature sucks now
But I will be accustomed to it, I think.

It only works in the Scenarios Uploads forum Category, which is how it had been for years before it broke.

Actually, I got it from someone else... I think Baron Munchausan (or however you spell that)...

Re: wow what a change
Theres a lot of new and nifty features...
But dam is this awkward, I don't know what this place looks like in Internet Exploder (Copyright to Fyron ) but Firefox is not enjoying this one bit...
Ahh well, Guess we'll get used to it. And to add my voice to all those complaining the new post order...I have to agree. I preferred newer Posts first. Since this place gets so many replies i thought it was much better suited to newest Posts first
EDIT: Just so you can see. This is what this place looks like in Internet Explorer.

This is what it looks like in Mozilla Firefox.

Re: wow what a change
Change is sometimes tough for me. Any chance of getting a bigger font size (or pointing me to where I can change it for myself)? I run my resolution higher than the typical 1024 x 768 and the font size is smaller than it was on the "old" forum.

Actually, I'd like to see the font size reduced to the original 10. Everything just seems a touch too big on the screen (I run at 1024 x 768).
I guess the best thing would be to insert an option for each of us to choose a unique font size for this Forum, without having to adjust the font on our Browsers.
Another thing: any way of increasing the size of the 'Post' box that we write our Messages in? I feels too cramped right now. Doubling the size would be perfect.
Everything else feels fine...

Re: wow what a change
Ive changed my edit box to 10 lines in my profile.
I changed the sort order back to what it used to be.
Oooh I really dont like that email button. Was that there before? All it does is create a mailto: link in the page. A mailto: link on a webpage searchable from the internet? Not good. Automatic spam collection. I would have thought the UBB folks would have replaced that with some sort of java script thing. I might suggest it to them.
I guess color coding will help. You can use them to munge an address gandalf@community.net so that it doesnt get picked up by automatic software

Re: wow what a change
I thought I was in the wrong place I like it
(Edit) I see this one runs from the 1st to Last, not the latest to oldest
