This is the second Archived Forum which was active between 1st March 2012 and 23rd February 2022
I notice that people with long lists of equipment in their tag line (or what ever it's called) now appear as a vertical list, unnecessarily lengthening a thread - are there plans to change this or do other folk not see it as an annoyance?
Ban boring signatures!
You mean an annoyance, vertical OR horizontal?
Still can't post from a mobile (android) device unless i use the "html" method .
burantek: You mean an annoyance, vertical OR horizontal?
To be honest I'm not particularly a fan of the "long list of gear" either way but at least when horizontal it doesn't unnecessarily lengthen the thread.
Puncher: Still can't post from a mobile (android) device unless i use the "html" method .
You know the answer to that!
burantek: You know the answer to that!
Can you post directly without using the App??
Ok, I guess this is an appropriate place to say it...
I don't mind the lines/sequential lists of gear (swag list as Rich says) but those vertical, bullet-pointed monsters must go!! I maintain a pretty huge list of my gear but it stays in my Bio.
Punch, I'm with you.

Will try right now on the big iWoop.

Worked perfectly, as it has for iWoops...
Puncher: burantek: You know the answer to that! Can you post directly without using the App??
Frankly, I have used the APP, but it is redundant with the latest iOS, IMHO.
I freely post with little and big iWoops all the time.
Only issue I have had is the smiley window not popping, but that is resolved by using the codes...
OK.
That is almost 4 hours and ~60 posts.
I will compile my list and place in the blog.
Its going to take a little bit of getting used to! I like the new look and feel though
I notice that the members username is not displayed above their avatar.! Otherwisw looking good.

Yes, I had noticed that as well - I prefer seeing the name as the new avatars are not instantly recognisable.

I would also appear to have an unfeasible amount of stars!! But I can post first time!!
Update! - I have found a box to untick at the foot of your site profile which hides everyones signature! - Job sorted.

Hhhmmm, wasn't this Rich that ever called it a swag list....least I don't think it was.
I rather dig the lists here, at diyaudio, and audiogon. Gives some insight into the member IMHO.
Peter: I would also appear to have an unfeasible amount of stars!! But I can post first time!!
Hi Peter,
It seems that you are the only one with stars... at least you are the only Beta-tester where I can see the three golden stars and the founder-"f"
But I am happy for you that you can post without too much trouble.
edit: Peter, I see you have over 9000 posts already? Must have something to do with the settings

iWoop stolen.
Android device all that's left.
I like it. The recent topics list is a little annoying as it makes me forget to go into the actual forum I want.
Also I don't see the need to have general and then general and questions within general.
The speed is excellent as the forum always hung for me when first going to the site.
Its nice to use.
One thing I wonder is when using other forums you get to decide on the theme of the forum so you can view it in which ever mode you prefer.
So far excellent

You will note that the Bronze, Silver Gold logos are not quite working correctly yet, that is work in progress..
Regards Keith....
I think the new forum is pretty great, but somewhat a lot of buttons and options to click. I'm all for keeping it simple.
Too long to list....

Depending on how the members write their list. A long vertical list is annoying (for me), on the other hand if the list is there in a replay you can see what the member has of equipment and ask questions accordingly. Below mine should appear if you didn't uncheck it.
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.

Søren Mexico:HOW CAN I ADD COLOR TO MY TEXT
The same way as you did on the old site !!!
Peter:I prefer seeing the name as the new avatars are not instantly recognisable.
Ditto that
Is there a way we can get the names above the avatar?
Is the your name above your Avatar ?
yes just appeared, thank you.
Thank you for putting so much time in Keith! Its appreciated
One thing that I couldn't put my finger on...
COLORS! Lots of colors! The reserved subtlety of the old forum was a bit more pleasant on the eyes.
Will this new SW allow "user skinning?"
Names back - that is great - we can ignore signatures - very good, colours in posts - the forum still cannot spell though! It doesn't like colour!!
Not sure this has been mentioned but the advertising logos at the bottom are not centered under the thread - at least not on my iMac.
I like its fresh look and feel and the pages load a lot quicker than the old forum. Well done to Keith and the team
just a though but when you at the bottom of a thread and need to go up is it possible to have a link to take you to the top of the page?
Peter: Not sure this has been mentioned but the advertising logos at the bottom are not centered under the thread - at least not on my iMac.
Get a windows computer! Mine are centered perfectly. Obviously designed for the sensible majority!!!

In the user profiles Conversations Configuration the default setting for Allow Conversations From is "Friends Only".Wouldn't it be better set at "All users" ?Surely mine is.
Also, I would personally prefer the "Email me replies to this post" checkmark when posting defaulted to unchecked if possible.

Hey hey hey! Watch your words Graham! (still hate the smilies)
My Mac has them perfectly centered, but not on "reply" or "edit" mode!

Welcome back Martin, I have been missing you, this smiley because its the only one I like of the "new" ones
Done
In my files I can make new folders, but I can't open them, trying to open I get the 404 file not found message
