WhitePlainsNY Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 On the new website there's the same missing link that I've noticed. On the new website, if you select the, "Support" text link, not all of the drop-down items are there that are visible if you were to only mouse over, "Support". Example: If I wanted to go to the forum and I clicked on, "Support", there's no link to the forum on the next page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimswinder Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Just thought of something...Anyway to select ALL messages on a page with a single click (sorta like in Hotmail) when you want to delete messages in your Private Messages area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the themes I'm using (wowbb and PC) both boxes happen to be at the very top, above the first message.This box will select all messages on the page.

Dan C Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I agree, I like the look of the current site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad02 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Excellent job with the new home page design. Removing the snapshots from the banner was a great idea. Like most people have implied and I have to agree, the darker blue color of the existing site is more professional looking. I'm no expert on web design but if you want an average person's view point maybe the design team can look at combining the pleasing characteristics of both site?

Ralph D Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Dan......First off happy father’s day! And to everyone here!Second, love the site and love the forums, I’m sure once people play around it will feel like home again, change isn’t always easy, but it’s what keeps us ahead of the rest.lol, it’s like when my wife does the fall cleaning and she moves everything around and gets all new stuff for the house and I always have something to say to her and the changes she makes. Then after a day, I love all that she’s done and appreciate all the hard work she does to make this a better place for me to come home too. In part she does this for me! To keep it ...my house new feeling. I really love what she does.Anyway, I’m impressed Dan, now go have a Sunday to yourself!I’M ALL IN!Ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Sand Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 One thing I would strongly urge you to do, if possible, is change the forum defaults so it shows all topic (or at least the last year) in the default forum view, instead of just recent. vBulletin can easily make it look like a forum has only a few topics if they haven't posted to recently, and it's not particularly intuitive to switch to "from Beginning" if you aren't already familiar with vBulletin.As for the main website, the layout basically looks okay to me, although I would make the blue header somewhat less bright. I also think the six buttons in the main area aren't particularly intuitive as to what they are or where they take you. I actually think the current website (which I believe you only went to less than a year ago) is pretty good layout-wise. Keep up the good work.
