I am definitely not subscribed to this board, and I haven't posted in this thread.
Ah right OK. That explains why I didn't get a red alert when that post was made, but I did when your post was made lol!
OK. This is feedback not criticism, it's obvious the work that's gone into this and it's really fantastic.
For me though, I am finding something is not right, is it the white, the fact most things are very light pastel colours, I don't know, but it really strains my eyes. It's far more tiring to look at that the other one, which I could happily read away for hours.
Is anyone else finding this, or is it just me? I can't think of another website I visit that does this.
Please guys, don't see this is a criticism, it really isn't these are my, excuse the pun, observations.

We'd rather have people being honest with what they're not keen on, it's fine . The forum is brighter than the previous incarnation, but we have turned down the white colours a tad from what we originally had. For me, it did seem a little bright at first but got used to it after a few days of using it. From my own admission, I have my brightness set way too high on my laptop so I've inched that down a tad and it's perfect for me. I would say give it a few days, and see how it looks then .
Would it be possible to go to the first unread post when you click on the time under a poster's name, "today at 12:00PM" in the screenshot posted, instead of the last post in the thread?
Hey,
So, when I used to go into boards on the previous forum, I'd select the threads that interested me, and then close the board, read the threads in separate tabs etc.
On the new forum, when I do this the board remains as 'unread'. Do I now have to manually click 'read all'? Seems quite laborious but probs just me.
It's the board that doesn't mark as read. As in on the homepage. The board doesn't mark as read once you've viewed it.I've tried to replicate this one by opening topics in new tabs etc, but they all seem to mark as read afterwards as they should? When you're reading the topics, are you definitely going to the last page in the topic? If you don't read through/go to the last page in the topic the topic stays marked as unread so perhaps that's the issue you're getting?

Couple of things..
On the old forum I liked how each post was 'individual', as they all had a rounded box (can't find a screenshot for now, but I hope you get what I mean). Now that posts are separated by lines it sort of looks a bit cramped. My preferences, anyway.
Also, is there a way to disable the 'similar threads' box at the bottom? I like to go back to the forum homepage usingafter reading a thread, but there's a big box that I don't use which makes me scroll a little bit more.
And finally, any chance of forum stats returning? It's fun to see how long @Jonathan has spent online in comparison to the rest of us.
Well done guys great work One thing I have noticed is the menu bar now doesn't stay at the top when you scroll down, that's always a handy feature!
