the blob Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 19 minutes ago, VintageComics said: Something else I like is that hovering gives you a wealth of information. Hover over usernames to see more info about them. Once the boards have a better color scheme / skin option this is going to make the boards look much cleaner without having to display all the additional, redundant information. Hover over thread titles to see 1st / last post. Still checking out new things but hovering is an interesting feature. wow, we joined here around the same time and you have 5X as many posts as me and I think I post way too much...

AGGIEZ Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 The easy pic uploads is brilliant. That'll save me a ton of time for my sales threads! Same with being able to search PMs...PLUS now you can create folders for your PMs and organize them!! I'm liking the site...especially when they figure out how to make it a little less "white/light grey". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 The layout isn't bad...... perhaps they could allow each user to select the color they want in a settings/preferences format.... so those who aren't enamored with light gray could choose something with a bit more color and contrast.

ADAMANTIUM Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) In the old forum they had a button called "top" that would take you to the top of the page so you could go back to forum choice, now it's in the bottom right. Due to the kind of mouse that I have, I like that now there is an arrow in the bottom right hand corner to get to the top of the page. On the old forum it was in the bottom left of the posts, so on the bottom right makes it easier It's a small thing/adjustment but I am thankful for it Edited February 9, 2017 by ADAMANTIUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADAMANTIUM Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Ya that's what I was saying it's on the bottom right rather than left which I like better due to the mouse I use, it's a small thing but I'm thankful for it 2 minutes ago, BlowUpTheMoon said: The red arrow that floats in the bottom right now does that function.

Columbia Comics Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Does nothing count as an answer? What consultant was hired to make this switch? I mean, has no one ever heard of beta testing to see if anyone would like the new format/boards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Architecht Posted February 9, 2017 Administrator Share Posted February 9, 2017 Oh, let's see.... Things I like. Point-based moderation system Moderation ticket queue @Architecht mentions in posts by name Notification system that is highly configurable Improved boards search Private message search, sort, filter Mobile / responsive design Faster performance (so far - I was worried about that one, confident but cautious) The activity feed in the upper right - customizable to view one long stream of anything you want to track on the forums Hiding posts A rich plugin system waiting to be tapped for all kinds of cool funtionality An awesome tagging system Single sign on with the grading sites Easier image uploads Grading-company-specific message boards Gallery functions Not turned on, but some cool kind of blogging and other tools that we might use Some cool things like an automatic email of popular threads this month that we might turn on Real-time notices of replies and messages, etc. without having to refresh a page Social media links I'm sure I could think of more, but why not leave an even 20 for now.

Columbia Comics Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Ok....the PM search, etc is nice single sign in is also good...except I cannot sign in with my dealer ID (CHANGE THAT) Grading company specific? So the other boards was for CBCS and PGX too? I will agree that uploading images is a TON better (kudos for that) So how the hell do I get email notifications when I have a PM?

Adjust to your heart's content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I liked the red arrow circle, that's all I've ever said, I hope this clarifies I don't know why everyone read my post differently, if I was confusing I'm sorry. I said, in the first place, that I like it on the bottom right hand corner rather than anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Architecht Posted February 9, 2017 Administrator Share Posted February 9, 2017 Oooh! Did anyone notice that you can highlight the text in someone's post (any part of it) hover over the highlight and click "quote this" to quote JUST that part in a reply? That's nice.

Red84 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Is there a way to reduce the amount of empty space on each side of the screen? There's a lot more scrolling now that everything is squished to the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
