Feedback anyone

i like the new concept but its bloody slow chris….

my pc is old but OBT runs slower than any other forum i frequent :whistle:

why is it so… oh lord of the geeks:kiss:

and also mate, its red……

its a fact that one in 3 males are red/green colourblind and have troubles distinguishing.

so red is shit for them…..

food for thought.

[ChrisMember]

Haven’t noticed any speed difference here. What colour would you like menace I was going to go orange but know i would have been hacked on for being bias, with the new software it’s easy to change now…

Hey Chris… any joy on the left / right scroll bar…..frustrating I can’t read the posts….

[ChrisMember]

Hey Kat, what posts are going over, I have changed so everything should fit in your screen regardless of how wide it is, as it use to be if a post was too wide you would have to scroll back and forth but part of the new software included a fix to stop this happening. Can you tell me a post that is doing it so I can check it out or is it the whole site?

Cheers

[katrina ratcliffMember]

its on the whole site… I’ve check multiple pages and also my profile, messages ect.

Do you know if anyone else is having this problem?

Hey Kat, I’ve tried it on lots of pc’s including a 10.1inch netbook and all looked fine, can you tell me what version browser your using?

[katrina ratcliffMember]

OK… don’t laugh but Qantas standard browser version (which I can’t change) is v6…. may be the problem.

[ChrisMember]

Oh O.K, I understand why that is a lot of corps are still on ie6, bad news is ie6 doesn’t support the fluid width tag so theres the problem, if you have the ability to download apps, download firefox and run that, you can still use IE but run Firefox in tandem..

Cheers
Chris.

So yeah I am home and here it is. I have been up and spoken with Chris, we knew this was coming but I guess the amount of change was underestimated :laugh: :ohmy:

I am not huge on change but the site had to be upgraded If you have things you find or helpful suggestions (even just a whinge :whistle: ) post here and we will look at it. We need to work together to fine tune it as we went thru this two years ago when we updated

I asked Chris to move the avatars to the right as was which has been done. There are some issues for Ipad users which he now knows about and is looking at.

I cant type a response on my Ipad either mate. I click on the reply tab, the replay screen opens but the keyboard doesnt pop up? that as you know means I cant type a reply :angry:

Constructive help

Not real sure just yet if I am a fan of the change or not,,,,
Just got back home & logged on after hearing about it at Nabiac!

Give me a few days to check things out & I`ll comment again guys:whistle:

[MalMember]

Looks good Chris. It shouldn’t take long to get the hang of.

Can we now use animated avatars?

One thing, the Latest Posts column on the left is not as defined/easy to read as the old version. Maybe the Topic could be in ‘bold’ text?

Haven’t had a chance to look over the whole site yet.

[Bob DowsettMember]

I think the latest post section is a bit busy looking as well , a lot hadrder to define and or find a specific post ???
Just my opinion
Bob
