Sure you're not, P3. ;)
I can see one thing already I'm going to really miss. Alternating backgrounds on posts, white then gray. But then I'm easily confused :rolleyes:
EDIT: Anybody else's post count "stuck" ?

Have to agree with you there.Quote:

Sorry, that should've been disabled. It is now.
Hmmmmmm.....I closed IE and re-opened but it still is different?......I tinkered with things awhile back to such an extent that in the 'Help/About' drop-down of my IE it say's "This is a customized version of Internet Explorer" :confused:
so who knows.....we'll see....it's an adventure:D

At least it does for me in FF.
Also the members list doesn't work I now have to go here and then at the bottom select post count descending to the members listed by highest post count down.
sure glad you said that JP....I thought I lost some more gray cells.....lol..... :D
Hey! Are you saying you now disabled the V2 skin? I vote for putting that back. I find the V3 skin very annoying.
I hope version 2 is default!
It ain't Poppy4.
Count me in as one who likes V2 skin better!
It should be...BUMMER!!
Sorry, that's supposed to be disabled. I had it disabled on the dev site, somehow it didn't transfer over. If you're still showing vb2 style, it'll be gone next time you log in
Can't put it back, the VB2 skin isn't even styled. Fonts are the wrong color, blue on blue, the header image was broken, etc.
NoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooQuote:

Also we appear to have lost the ability to use custom titles which according to the FAQ is up to the administrator
But I can't find it anywhere in the control panel.Quote:
If the administrator has enabled custom status titles, then you can specify the text you want to display by editing your profile and entering the text you want in the Custom User Text field.
Just came up. Now I only have 3/4 pages showing. Looks like the right hand 1/4 is for Ads?
Yes I would say either the V3 needs reformatting or the v2 needs to be set up so that it can be used.
That's the width of the ad.
wouldn't it be possible to move the post down a little bit so that the ad's can have that corner, but we can have our posts the whole width of the screen.., this is how it was before hand wasn't it?
That's the way it was before the upgrade, but that ad will occasionally grow to double it's height. We had users complain that the main table was too low on the screen, so we moved it up to very near the top. However we had to sacrifice width in order to do it.
I think your going to get many many more complaints doing it this way though..Quote:

They appear to be the same ??
Also have we picked up some new Administrators aswell ??
I for one would rather have whitespace the height of the ad at the top of the screen (or fill it with other ads / etc) than whitespace the width of the ad for the whole length of the screen resulting in squshed posts.Quote:

I look at a place like vbforums.com (that's one of JM's right?). The same issues do not exist there.
From an art/layout standpoint.....any ad can be made narrower and longer......why is that a problem ?.......poppy

Excellent. And hopefully that will translate in to more new people coming here. If so, then that will be one of the problems gotten in check.
No, they've been admins. Doc, vbforums hasn't had these changes made to it yet, but it will.
Ah! OK JP. But I still vote for taking a real look at a redesign of things.
poppy i am using ie and that option is there for me
