The version you are viewing on your phone is the desktop version. It just auto formats to screen size. I'm not sure why you can't see pics or sigs, but it sounds like a data usage option on your end.

It is very odd. Sometimes I can see pics, sometimes not. I can never see the sigs for anyone. Also, links to videos, dont always work...

When you say "data usage option", do you mean something that I need to change on my control panel options?

I have only experienced these issues, since the site went to the new format...

Just noticed that when I view the site with my phone horizontally, I can now see all the sigs and pics... lol...

I haven't had issues in the past finding how to make the page the white version but i'm not able to find it / over looking it somewhere? This black is killing me.

Yea, I'm not a fan at all of the newer layout, but it is what it is.

One feature i am pretty upset with losing is the "my threads" button is gone, it showed all the threads you posted in recently at the top of the screen, right next to where the "new posts" button is now. Is there a way to get that back? I always like having that as I could see what posts i recently posted in are still active.

Hover over your username on the right. You should get a drop down with my content or something like that.

I know that's there. But it just shows your posts, not the threads themselves and if they are active or not. If a thread you posted in hasn't been active in a few days, and someone just now posted in it, it would bump that thread to the top of your "my threads" list. We don't have that anymore.

That and I'm having problems with the quoting and inserting quotes in the reply button down on the bottom of the threads. Every time i do that it slows my computer down or freezes it even sometimes. Even typing to you now after quoting you, it's lagging.

Not sure about the lag issue. I haven't experienced it.

The My Threads button is on the list.
Well that takes care of half my issues.

The lag could just be my 7 year old computer, but i don't have issues on any other of the multiple forums i'm on. Or any site all together. We'll see how it turns out.

Am I the only one that's going to miss TABLE support in posts?

My signature, as well as some of my posts that make use of TABLE tags, are now train wrecks. :(

Is the feedback display for users going to be restored under each screen name too? Like where it showed how much feedback you had and one %

I don't think I ever used that tag before.

Eventually.

Sweet! It shows just the treads that I've started though, not all the threads I've posted in.

Before we switched over it would show all of the threads you had activity in, in order of how active the threads were. Say for instance I posted in a thread 2 weeks ago and that thread just had a post posted in it right now, well then it would bump it to the top of the list.

So far, I'm liking the changes. I didn't really use some the features that have been talked about in this thread but overall it seems to be working well. I'm sure it will get even better over time as things get tweaked.

I have noticed the swear filter not working correctly, unless the f word is allowed to show now haha.
