ana! Kinda miss the old look cant get use to this new 1 allow it was done for our benifit which i appreciate. Where the hell everyones went?, this board use to be bangin!, even b4 i registered!, wonder why no1 bothers anymore....... If ur not registered and reading this, REGISTER!
i personally think that facebook has taken over (which it has). or the new nucastle logo or perhaps it's because the people who use this board simply just have nothing much to say and have abismal crack, and only join in when someone's getting rinsed. however, it remains my internet safety blanket. if it's here.... i feel a bit safer. *engage rinsing*
Personally the lay-out puts me off without realising it The previous board, you could see at a glance from the front page what was changing in forums, now its just too 'busy' Come to think about it, this may be my first post since its changed
The old forums only told you the person who posted last and the time they did so, so thats not completely accurate. You are right though, the main page layout is cluttered... Would people find it better if we "sectioned" the different forums into categories, like music, technology & general?
id just try and tweak the main page so its as close to the previous as possible folk dunt like change
the current header graphic is mingin. i hate the default 'inner glow' colour. no offence to whoever did it. surely some of the photoshop talent on here can come up with something? this was a great opportunity to give the site a revamp, some new colours, a new image, after all, i think they represent a time past. the original club/night doesn't exist any more. its unfortunate that even the slightest change will get everybody's back up and the site will no doubt return to its former grey/glory. it took me a while to return due to the cookie error - i tried to sign up with a new account to point this out but was unable to post. i'm assuming others will soon get back to trying again and realize its fixed ableton re-did its forum on the same day, i ended up doing some work ffs.
that's just exclamation mark abuse. a comp would be a good idea - logo / header graphic a new logo would be cool so folk could put it on flyers etc for a bit of promo for the place. you could even make it a requirement for using the whats on section. if you use the old promise logo that would get confusing in this situation. the dong copter is gay.
Yeah, I think itd be much better if it were sectioned, or even the text and boxes made a bit smaller Less is more in many cases! As for logo, I could get something knocked up professionally pretty cheap from one of my suppliers if you wish?
we've cut out a load of the users that had never posted and it was due for a bit of a tidy up - plus i'm guessing the newer sql engine and vB front end helps
