Title: New look OOF
Post by: TheBoy on 29 December 2007, 13:59:15
As you will have obviously noticed, there have been some changes around here ;)

Now despite the Admin Team looking for potential probles for the past 6 weeks or so, we suspect one or 2 may have slipped through the net.

Please post up any issues in the 'Forum Help' section, rather than clutter General Chat :y

 :)Facelift OOF! Nice!!! Not sure about some of the grey print, prefer the black (sorry) but otherwise a total improvement. Like it. :y :y
   Does this mean us old farts (earlier members) can sit around @ Lakesmeet 2010/11 going on about "remember the old site?" While dribbling into our burgers? Hic! ::)

Is it a Facelift or just a mini-facelift?

And why do I have to keep telling it i'm bored to get back to the main page  ;)

i miss the links at the bottom of a thread.

They are still at the top, eg:        

Omega Owners Forum › General Omega Chat › General Chat › Thread Topic

but now removed from the bottom, i used them all the time, read a thread, down to the bottom, then clicked on gen chat or the main forum.

I find it better by just clicking the BOARD tab, it takes you back to the main topic page, then you can click whichever page you want.

Tops :y :y

Well Done on The New Look OOF - Very Nice and Clean Cut!

May have been discussed before, but is it poss. to have a brief "snippet" of the subject post by moving your cursor over the subject line (i.e. a small pop up box?)

Thanks for making the best site even better!!

Its great, just dont like one bit.. When you are receiving email from OOF it says only 'Topic reply' instead 'Topic reply: something'.  ;D Just my opinion.  ;)

I had already noticed that before, doesn't appear that we can adjust the subject line via the interface (only the email body).  The thread title is in the body already.

I'll have a dig in the code to see if we can sort that, if there is sufficient demand...

Everyone seems to think this is all my work, but I cannot take all the credit. The rest of the team have been testing and playing for the past few weeks ensuring that things went smoothly when we did it for real.

It looks good to me. One thing that I have noticed that is missing though. There used to be a link top and bottom of where you are...it's now only at the top. I was all confused for a few seconds  ::)

At the bottom is Home and Board, which takes you back to homepage or current board index respectively
