digitalpoint has a new look, do you like it?

You will like the previous design/look just because of human nature Sir as we people do not like change. It is in our nature to reject change and prefer the previous things that we are more accustomed to.

This will change and once things settle you will soon get used to the changes and learn to accept them and become accustomed to the new features and colour scheme etc.

It's just your brain playing tricks on you matey!

 

just testing

 

Its very basic but nice. I'm sure after they get all the kinks out it will be better than ever.

I think they need to go back to the old postbit template though

 

No that is not posssible. Just get used to it. V4 of VB is just new.

 

It's ok I guess, takes some getting used to

 

I loved the older version. Was working with it for years. This new design will take some time to get absorbed.

 

The old one as nice..!!

 

I like it. But the logo is not so impressive.

 

I think the new look of the dp will take some time to get adopted and absorbed. I feel I am in an entirely new forum!

 

I like it a lot.

 

It will take a little while to get used to but it does look very nice.

 

I'm not sure I like it that much, but maybe that's just because I'm not used to it just yet. For example I just took 30 seconds or so looking for the subscribed threads, which was a little frustrating (it's under quick links in case you can't either haha)!

Also does anyone else find the new "Replies / Views" column hard to scan?

Anywayt, it's the content and community that counts so I'll learn to live with it haha

 

doesn't look bad at all , but still need lot's of time to get used to

 

I like it a lot. I have been reading this forum for a few months, and now I had to sign up because it just looks so much better then it did.

 

I'm with Don here. I like it

Might take some getting used to (finding where certain things have been moved to) but worth it really

 

I think its ok. It is hard to get around initially but that should not be a problem after few days.

 

Old one is better for me when compared to new version .

 

Miserable /FAIL/ so far as accessibility is concerned thanks to the absurdly undersized fixed metric fonts. Whoever chose 11px or SMALLER needs a serious beating with a wet trout... Seriously, it's called %/EM or PT; USE THEM. When I have to zoom in 150% to make ANY of the site legible on my large font/120 dpi system (1920x1200 24") I don't even want to think what small fonts on my netbook is going to be like.

There are color contrast issues too, many of the light green areas (like the anchors for 'recent blog') do not come up to WCAG contrast minimums; the worst of the lot being the effectively invisible grey text in the headers.

I'm also not wild about having to drill down to the subscriptions page since the 'new posts' is effectively useless (since I could give a **** about 2/3rds of the posts here) - used to be nice to just hit 'settings' and boom, have my most recent posts listed. I realize that was a non-standard functionality not part of Vbull, but it would be nice to have that back.

Overall - You keep it like this, I'm not going to bother visiting anymore since if I have to hit zoom, I'll go to a site where I don't have to. For a web developer forum making EVERYTHING in PX is such a miserable /FAIL/ whoever let it deploy like this needs to be taken 'round back 'o the woodshed and put down like old yeller...

No offense.

-- edit --

Oops, Ok, there is a faster way to subscriptions, it just doesn't work in Opera... Stupid javascripted dropdown menu - because that SO warrants the use of .js - do I DARE look at how bloated the filesizes are? YEAH, 349k of javascript for WHAT? 106k of HTML for WHAT? Stupid scripted dropdowns that are completely broken in Opera and IE? BRILLIANT!

I knew the new version of vBull was allegedly flushing the markup down the toilet, but I didn't realize it was this bad; The forum index is 168k for 15k of actual content - if that's not an indication this software is total **** crap, I don't know what is.

 

This is the first I am seeing of it. Haven't been on in a few days but it looks OK
