I'll be working on design in the next few weeks folkes, I agree about too much grey. We needed to move faster than I wanted because of security flaws with vBulletin which they didn't seem to want to fix - have a look here at why we chose the new software https://www.avforums.com/threads/vb...net-brands-have-killed-off-vbulletin.1855705/

You'll find it's much better functionally, I just need to get the design to work a bit better.
Could the text be darker please?

Yeah I'm going to work on the contrast. It's funny because it looks much nicer on my 13 inch MacBook than it does on my 24 inch PC monitor - I think the design just probably isn't neutral to different contrast settings on screens, which will need to be worked on.
 
It's a bit unfair to call it ****e this early on.

I mean, I remember people saying Windows 3.0 was ****e as it was different. Then Windows 95-Windows 8 were considered ****e as people weren't used to them. Wait, forget that. Bad example...
 
Will there be apps in the future? Mine no longer works and its a pain going via chrome everytime I log in.

Yeah I will get Tapatalk and Forum Runner installed tomorrow - unfortunately they charge for their apps. The software (Xenforo) currently doesn't have it's own apps.

You could have used 'IP.Board'.

No offence, but this is ****e.

Xenforo is generally rated higher, it's built by the original vBulletin developers (who did a bit of a Championship Manager to Football Manager ship jump) - I did quite a bit of research before choosing and I'm pretty certain I won't regret that aspect. I'll maybe regret the design choice though...
 
**** em Mick. Looks better all round. Even on my phone.

I'm sure you'll tweak it even better in time.

Makes me laugh people complaining about the best set of forums that are also free.
 
I had problems locking it this morning, but other then that fine.

It's like Facebook people complain when they update it then after a week they get use to it.
 
Need an app for my phone otherwise I'm picking up on the positives.

Could do with a dislike button, it's easier than writing out "you ****".
 
Must say, I've just had hell on with changing my avatar. It says that it recommends 200x200, yet still only accepts the old 80x80 and won't seemingly load anything above.
