The New VJ (3/2010)....What do you think?

[trillium13 84]

Here's a problem I'm having-it's with the email notifications. Used to be when you clicked the links in your email they took you to the most recent post since you last read the topic-now it takes you to somewhere randomly within the thread.

Also, the time on my posts is wrong-I checked my settings and they are correct, but it's still an hour off.

That should sshake out over the next few days.

Thumbs up. I just wish we could customize the font's when reading a thread.

Much Like EP, I have difficulty reading the font on my screen

Interesting.

It hurt my eyes when it first loaded since I'm not used to seeing everything so... rounded?

I like it though, even though it's going to take some getting used to.

The member gender should not be posted as part of their posting, or the member should be able to elect not to have their gender shown.

Agreed. Fixed.

Hopefully the interest space is cleared up. It is in the posts/topics anyhow. If the profiles is too long let me know and I can correct that.

Thanks Captain for the willingness to make tweaks to it.

The two things I would say are the most troublesome for me are:

The left column being too wide along with the text in it not being aligned to the left.

The font sizes could be more visibly noticeable to draw your eye to what is most important.

On the old system, I would frequently check to see if any thread I had responded to had been updated by searching on my own name. As they do now, the results would show every thread I had posted in, listed in order of most recently updated. However, there used to be a column that would show who the most recent poster in the thread was, and when the most recent post had been posted. This made it very easy for me to tell when a thread I had posted in had been updated. This information appears to no longer be being posted in the search results? Can this please be fixed, if it is reasonably easy to do? Thank you very much.

Also, as I type this, the font in the text edit control seems jarringly small in Chrome under MacOS. It may be that it is the same size it was before, and the larger text edit control makes it seem smaller.

I find the text of the google ads large and intrusive at the tops of the page. Not sure if its different or just contrasts more now than before, but its so in your face.

I would like to know if is possible when I use "fast reply" enable or disable my signature, on the old system I could, but now I can do it only with "Add reply"

or I'm lost?

thx

When you click in to the fast reply space, there is not an exit button if you choose not to post. You have to use the back button on your tool bar. This is a design suggestion. There should be a Post or cancel button. JMOP.

Wasn't there an edit button before? I can't find it on my posts now.

More Questions/Comments..

1) When I look at other VJers profiles...There is no link for "timeline", like there was in the old VJ....(lol..don't mind me, I like looking at timelines..just curious...)

2) Whatever happened to the "country flag" in my profile?

3) When going onto a forum, it says the number of people browsing the forum, but not who is browsing, like in the old VJ...

4) "Previous stuff" in profiles spacing not aligned yet...looks kind of odd....

6) I like the new "status" update on the top of the profiles...

7) I like the way friends are organized now (lol..though I choose to hide such...)

8) Too bad about the emoticons/faces next to the post topics title on the forums boards...Oh well.....That had to go, I suppose, as those made some topics stand out more than others...Now it's all equal...
