Couple of points:

1. the 'Reply to thread' button is not working for me - had to click on 'go advanced' (use Chrome browser, it worked ok before)

2. Arms member's names are yellow in most colour schemes - yellow is difficult to pick out and read on a light background. Can you change the colour to give a better contrast?

and what is Trackback?
 
to be honest not sure. There is no instant chat which always caused a giggle. Maybe because its new but in my humble opinion the old look had a more profetional look to it. Its only my opinion and i am not trying to upset anyone.

I agree, but I suppose change will happen and I will move with the times. It does look very smart though.
 
I guess its a case of adjusting, letting go of the past and learning to enjoy the benefits of the new....

It certainly is easier on the eye when lights are low in the room.
Again its a shock at first but good when you adjust to it.

and what is Trackback?
1) I use Chrome and it's working fine. Try holding down the CTRL key and hitting F5 which fully refreshes the page. Failing that, log out (which clears cookies) and log back in and try again. If all that fails give me a shout via PM and I'll see if I can find a fix or replicate the problem.

2) Work in progress that is. Red clashes with Admins as the username is made bold anyway in this forum version. Went for green but that's for sponsors. Tried dark gold (as in a gold member) but Dave reported it not loading any colour in FireFox 3, so lightgold (or yellow as it appears in Chrome) it is for now. I'll work some more on that tomorrow/monday.

And trackbacks have always been there, in the old version they were there. They're explained in the Forum FAQ in detail, but basically they're links back to forums and blogs that are linking to us.

You're just after loads of Thanks from me aren't you! You little charmer you. :)

**thanks clicked once again** haha
 
tbh it certainly is a lot easier to navigate through and the front page is set out entirely the same as the old version so it`s not like we can`t find anything. if i put that pink on i might get my youngest daughter joining up :D

Its nice to be nice as me dad would say. But, to be honest its just kind of good to have put something back towards this helpful place especially if its of good use.
 
just a quick question and it`s probably me missing the obvious :) how do we attach files from the computer, thanks in advance :D
 
Same as before mate, "manage attachments" then "find files" at the top right. You do have to "go advanced" first though.

You'll also be able to see any previous pictures you've uploaded as they are now viewable when you click to add new ones.
 
doh . I should have gone to spec savers :eek: good job i am going for the eyes testing next week :D right in front of me and i still coulld not see it. thanks guys
