What updates can we expect for the new PF website style?

[lisab]

Yeah I dabbled with lowering the opacity of signatures to lessen the visual pressure they have on post content.

I'll pretend I understood what any of that meant Cheers!

Is anyone else facing problems with post #17?

The post window will stretch with images and mathjax that are too large.

Apologies if this has been addressed already, but when I click "My Posts" I see none of mine and all of your posts, Greg. Not sure if this is a bug unique to me or...

I do enjoy your writing though. :P (And the site does look really nice now)

The same happens here.

Thanks for the bug report. I will have it fixed in a few minutes! :)

To tell the truth, I preferred the previous wide form. But I am an old person confused by new things.

But:
About one quarter of the screen width is empty, so I have to scroll down more then before.
If I use visible size letters, the Quick Links and the search box are merged, texts go out from their boxes, and the proportions do not look nice.
Previously, I could see at once the posts I have replied and new. There is a small faint icon now I can hardly see.

And the awards have been removed

That was temporary only.

It looks pretty refreshing and overall a good design. I would be perfect if I could widen it like echild said, because right now there's a lot of empty space on either side of the screen. Otherwise it's very good

Unrelated to the (fixed) bug: I think the https://www.physicsforums.com/usercp.php is easier to use - you directly see which threads (you are interested in) have new posts, if you use the right settings.

I am already very curious to see how much space is left available for text when viewing this on my 7" eeepc screen.

 

[Saladsamurai]

Is it just me, or does the "Remember Me" option not show up anymore whilst logging in? I find myself logging in every time. I am using Chrome.

Speaking of "face lift". Are you going to be changing "www.physicsforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=20611&d=1253297871" 's face lift?

You can widen it from the browser. I use Firefox, and can zoom in and out the page from the "View " menu.

I haven't encountered any problems, but I'm old and stuck in my ways. I prefer the old format. Thanks for this forum, Greg.

 

[ArcanaNoir]

I don't like change :/
I kind of like the "star" effect in the main banner though.

 

[jim hardy]

OOPS this is a duplicate post
it's in Science Advisors Forum also..

Server errors last night, I wasn't sure whether it'd got through.

..............When viewing subforums and forums top level

the blck at right showing last post need a space between name and "Y" or "T", click
"PFLOUNGE" above for example.

Minor thing, but when first saw it I said I said "who's BernhardT and BorekY ?"

...I think the old look was really distinct and made PF unique. There's a million internet forums out there that look nearly identicle to this one now.

While I do like the new look, I agree with you on that one.

You took the words right out of my mouth! I liked the old version, and even if it's being replaced, it might be better to maintain the old color scheme more.

Another possible browser oddity

this appeared within last couple hours...

1e9, win 7

in login boxes, the one for password is covered up by "auto login" button and I am unable to log in that way.
Have to click "reply" on a thread to get to an older style login page, and if that one gets 'fixed' i'll be locked out..

(or am I missing a hint?)

I have given the new skin a trial, but I still prefer the old one.

Awesome, thanks!

I'm looking into this. IE10 it looks fine. I need to check with an IE9 emulator.

The new website style is beautiful. This is one of the best sites on the 'net. Thanks admins!

I have to press the new reply button before I can look at the posts to which I am or am not to reply to.
This can't be right you look at posts and then hit the reply button and then reply.
Is this a bug or some kind of illogic logic.

I don't understand, are you saying that when you hit the quote button on a post that you wish to respond to that the post disappears?

The "quote" button is the default (and preferred) reply button.

What browser and version?

Can you post a screenshot of the thread with missing (?) posts?

What browser and version?

Internet explorer version 8.
