This from Mick on the Chelsea board

The last software was very broken - big security vulnerabilities which pushed my hand in moving faster than I would like to. I'm going to be working on the design to try remove some of the grey over the next few weeks, in mean time you may want to get a better background image <whistle> I'll delete the current one as it just looks a bit silly. If you want to know why we had to move please read this https://www.avforums.com/threads/vb...net-brands-have-killed-off-vbulletin.1855705/ - once you get used to this software you'll notice it has much better functionality, I just need to work a bit on the design.
 
Looks good guys. Nice to have a responsive HTML 5 version that works across multiple devices.

If you don't figure out the font issue, let me know. Most likely a CSS issue that's easily fixed

Do you work in design? I'd love to pick someone's brain over trying to improve the contrast (it's very bland in the posts) as I'm no designer and don't have the artistic skills to do anything outside of trial and error arsing about.
 
Yes.How do you find one's previous comments so you don't have to repeat yourself.
What button do you have to push.....?

In the menu that pops up from your username on the top right hand side there's 'Your content'
 
I like the fact that old pms are restored - takes me back in some of them - especially the ones that make me sound like a sanctimonious prick - knew there was a reason I deleted them <laugh>

Yeah, it does call into question the whole point in restricting the number of PMs if they stored deleted ones in the database anyway - vBulletin developers, just a bunch of sadists.
 
It's always a bit of a pain when something changes, but this is clearly 100 times better in appearance than the original site. Looks quality now.

Seems really slow to me or is it my laptop?

Also why is the site so grey and why the need for the big red arrow in the bottom right?

I'm sure i'll get used to it though.
 
Yeah, I agree. It seems much slower to respond than the old site. Checked my wi-fi speed, just in case, but no change in that......
 
At the bottom of my post there is the word 'NULL' . Anybody know what this means?

As King said, if you had a signature on the old site it may have just failed to transfer across to this one.


With regards to the slowness, I've only noticed it a little this morning. There are bound to be some teething problems though and hopefully they'll be getting ironed out over the next days and weeks, from what Mick has said this new shiny site should be a lot easier to fix problems on than the last one, which was made more of plasters than actual software by the end. Keep bringing up any problems or anything you'd like to see changed here and we'll see if it can't be changed.
 
Apart from the grey, it's OK. Remember that some of us are old and our eyes don't work as well as they once did. Impossible to read on the mobile in the sun. I will hack it (locally) if it doesn't get changed.
