Well aren't we all shiney and new then.

[Guest123]

Lookin good guys, dont you think.

 

[martysparky]

Whats happened to the THANKS button?

 

[scotsparky]

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.

 

[Guest123]

All the add-on's will arrive in time gents, we are still in our infancy. There'll be options to customise your screen colours and things, and also (I hope) the forum logo will appear.

I agree this is more like E-mail but I'm sure we'll get used.

EDIT: Looking again its only a lighter colour really. Weird!

 

[High Tower]

That expalins why Tapatalk doesent work then

 

[Guest123]

Just give Dan a chance guys.....he's done 4 or 5 forums already so he knows what he's doing.

 

[Dave]

Give it time lads.. Dan is upgrading as we speak... and yes the thanks button is here just not installed yet..

 

[Dave]

And this is the basic colour version. once completed there will be a few selections at the bottom for you to choose from..

 

[High Tower]

Oh i dont doubt it will be spot on and that Dan knows what he is doing, Nor was i complaining. Just good to know why Tapatalk wasnt working as i was about to launch my Iphone in temper

 

[Guest123]

Dont be doing that!!!

I hope mine comes next week.....IP4.

 

[martysparky]

I'm sure give it a week or two and we'll ALL think it better.

 

[Dave]

Trust me guys.. once you know what this new software can do.. then you will be buzzing..

 

[CRAGS]

Always takes a while get used to change I have being on a few forums and at first not liked the changes but you soon adapt

 

[Guest123]

Thanks button installed.

 

[Dave]

And there is your first..

 

[Guest123]

What happened to the 1000 odd I had before then???

 

[High Tower]

Dont be doing that!!!

I hope mine comes next week.....IP4.

Yeah mine is the IP4 32G
If you are going to be using it on site then buy a Otterbox Defender off ebay or it will be Fubared in a matter of weeks

If this is your first you will absolutely love it they are great, make sure when you get yours it has 3 insulating breaks in the circumfrance of the body, one on top and one either side, if it hasent then return it as this is the revised update to solve the signal loss problems.

 

[High Tower]

I love that every time i refresh the page, its like watching it being created. Its a good job im not steamin or i would be sure i was either imagining things or tripping!! lol

 

[Guest123]

Ahh....the new colour scheme....nice!

 

[Dan]

Scroll to the bottom of the forum and use the drop-down box on the left to change the style.

Any suggestions as to colour schemes?

 

[CRAGS]

Liking the otterbox for iPhone not seen them before now considering buying one myself..... And are we going to get our thanks etc back or are we starting from a fresh

 

[martysparky]

Thanks for the thanks button that was very responsively quick.

 

[Guest123]

Colours......well,

We've got to have a brown & blue...............and a green & yellow. Tis a sprks forum after all.

 

[CRAGS]

Red and White match my foot team Stoke city

 

[kung]

Well done Dan ! although it takes some getting used to it has much better options now and when i took 5 mins out to look about all became clear and self explanatory in the end.

 

[Guest123]

Red and White match my foot team Stoke city

We already have red & white......scroll right to the bottom left of the page.

 

[Adam W]

I'm not feeling it tbh.
Call me boring but I like the format of the IET forum - easy to navigate, one colour (grey) straightforward electrical forum without the bells and whistles.

It took me long enough to get used to the old format but I'm sure I'll adapt given time.

 

[mrmatt]

Nice work on the new look guys, well done!

 

[martysparky]

Scroll to the bottom of the forum and use the drop-down box on the left to change the style.

Shading the white background might be a good option for ease of use on the eye.

 

[Guest123]

Is it possible to have the old logo somewhere Dan???

 

[High Tower]

EF standard it is.........its the closest to old faithfull...........on a serious note its not as bad as first feared. I actually quite like it.

Can we have the old forum logo back at the top, only reason i ask is a certain job lot of pens......

 

[Sparky Ninja]

I agree it's looking nice. Quite a lot more colourfull.

I'd also like to see the old logo somewhere... I have pens on the way too

 

[Dan]

Colours......well,

Done, my lovely sausage.

Green and yellow doesn't go well and is very bright, not one for midnight surfing in the dark.

 

[kung]

mabe new members can be intermediate members eg new harmonised colours brown, black & grey and the old members that are switched on can be red, blue and yellow ?

 

[Guest123]

Green & Yellow rocks!!!

 

[High Tower]

Green & Yellow rocks!!!

Lol it makes my eyeballs itch!

 

[kung]

[Sparky Ninja]

If you click on "quick links" at the top of the page you'll see the "subscribed threads" option in there.

 

[Sintra]

Liking it alot well every thing apart from the green / yellow. Think i will stick with the ef standard for now anyway.

 

[RexT]

Hi Lenny,
Yes looks good and is quite a bit brighter.
As usual good work all round,

Best wishes,

Rex

 

[scotsparky]

Hit the 'What's New' link in the main menu.

 

[kung]

Ear wheres our thanks gone ?

 

[Dan]

Apologies. During the upgrade they didn't transfer. On the flip side, gives everybody a chance to be the top thanked again.

 

[martysparky]

Is there any chance of softer colour options rather than white for the main background Dan?

 

[Dan]

That expalins why Tapatalk doesent work then

Tapatalk will be back up and running later. I'm just configuring a few things at the mo on both here and the plumbing forum.
