I liked the black, personally, but this might be more stealthy for work purposes. Now, to see if my avatar is there...

I like it. I never really liked the black.... found it hard on the eyes. I got used to it though. This really doesn't take an adjustment period even.

Thanks Owens

At first glance I don't like the white. The black was kind of unique and set the board apart. This one looks like every other message board. Maybe I can play with the settings and get it black, hang on...

Edit: no option for black background. c'est la vie

One day you're a confirmed addict and the next day you wake up a registered user. Just goes to show ya how in the blink of an eye life can change with no hopes of ever getting back what you once were. :(

I guess I too had better just quit the internet

I'd say they are as cool as an autumn breeze.

I liked the old colors better, but not enough to cry about it.

But Owens: the search function does not work in the archives, making the archives kind of useless. What would be sweet and rad and totally cool is if you could post a reply to an archived thread and it would bring it back to life on this board. Is that a possible tweek?

Base did you do the search from here, or from within the archives?

hey owens, not sure if your able to, but I know that Vbulletin has a thread preview function, where if you put your mouse over the post title it will pop up a small preview of the post. If you are able to add that to the new forum functions at some point that would be awesome, I go on a couple forums that I have that and its a very nice feature. :D

am I dreaming that I'm in gapic land?

Ah shiz, I've died and gone to gapic land. Cool user features, not so cool look. A bit too...happy in this place now with all this color.

The purple shade is freakin' me out. ONS, are you gay? :D ;)

Remember that scene from T2 when Sarah Conner is dreaming? All the kids are in the playground & waaaaaay off in the distance they see a mushroom cloud & a bright burst?

Then the blast rips through them & they all turn to ash?

I feel kinda like that.

I think the search function is just whacked in general. I typed in "powder" and got only four hits, all from today. That ain't right.

I understand the update, but can we go back to the avatar and info on the side like it was instead of gapic style on top?

quit your whinning. Looks good. I am going to work on my parallel drop in's.

I agree w/ Theodore. I like the avatard and stats on the side...not sure if that is change-able. It's easier to focus on the post content that way. Although that's a double edged sword in some cases!

Oh, it definitly changable. I went through all of this a few months back at bimmerforums. This should make the board run smoother/faster, but the options abound for looks.

Very sexy new look ONS. Thanks for the board.

Looks a little more subtle, the black made it really obvious that I wasn't working for most of the day. I miss the navigation and logged on user at the top of the page, though - the recent change to a bright red TGR logo was pretty cool, as well.

Anyway, thanks for the upgrade Owens - I suspect there are good features to find.

Actually, if you click on "quick links" you do see who is online and what they are doing.

Also, if you click on "Memberlist" and then click on "Posts" it will reverse the order of the # of posts and you can see who the top ten posters are.

Slackers. :p

It's too bright in here. Not really digging the new layout. I like the dark colors and the simplicity of the old board. There's too many buttons that I will never use.

I gather Owens & Co. must spend a bunch of time and effort - to say nothing about money - to make it possible for us to spend our days here. Pretty amazing. Thank you.

Change is good - right?
