Saint_clark Posted 13 June, 2010 Share Posted 13 June, 2010 Did the old system resize images automatically if they were too big to be used as an avatar? I can't remember, but the new one certainly does. Wanted this picture as an avatar for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintandy666 Posted 13 June, 2010 Share Posted 13 June, 2010 (edited) Obviously you have to always get used to these things before you appreciate it and forget the old. No-one likes change, but at the same time... I am liking this upgrade as in the new features. Nice work This forum is well worth the £5 pounds I pay per year as well.

Ajv2809 Posted 13 June, 2010 Share Posted 13 June, 2010 I'm sorry, but it looks cheap and tacky. Absolutely awful design at the top. Plain, boring and old fashioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano6 Posted 13 June, 2010 Share Posted 13 June, 2010 Wow - this looks sh1t. It's like how things were when the internet was just being invented. Is there a dial-up version too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 13 June, 2010 Share Posted 13 June, 2010 http://www.footballforums.net/forums/ For comparison that is how the place used to look (bar the colour scheme). Right now I prefer the old way - whilst this new one is no doubt faster and has more features, it does sadly look the cheaper of the two - but i'm sure i'll come round to like it.

Nexstar Posted 14 June, 2010 Share Posted 14 June, 2010 The old design was much nicer with the dark red colour scheme, also made it easier to see threads with new posts. Was that really the best banner of the lot?! Does look like a cheap knock-up job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 14 June, 2010 Share Posted 14 June, 2010 Happy with the transformation - just one observation, the predominent white background is a bit "in your face"....the grey was much more hangover friendly (and probably kinder to the planet to boot....) :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 14 June, 2010 Share Posted 14 June, 2010 For all te moaners. Can I just pitch in and say this upgrade of the site (99.9999% of which was done by steve) is for mainly technical reasons. It allows us to better integrate all aspects of the site as well as keeping the software the runs the site up to date. To that end, the comments towards how it looks and feels, whilst taken into consideration, will take a back seat until the site is working completely smoothly.

saintjay77 Posted 14 June, 2010 Share Posted 14 June, 2010 1st impression is not good but just read Baj's post so once the techy stuff is all working I guess the looks will change to suit. Suprised at the banner too. Not that I had a go at making one or would have been any better but it does seem like its a step down to what we had. That might just be due to the colour scemes and so on though so happy to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintalan Posted 14 June, 2010 Share Posted 14 June, 2010 Fine with the style but is there any way to change background colour and font size/colour? I note at the bottom right there is only one style - default. Does that mean you have to subscribe to do what I want in order to read thru my aging eyes and specs?

So now we've got the technical side done, can we now concentrate on making the look bearable again? Cant be that much work to change it to a different banner and perhaps ditch the very white background? Can we have poll to decide on a banner? This one hasnt exactly gone down well.
