New Forum Header

Oh yeah, just love the option to view up to 100 headers. I'm sure that was not there before?

But we seem to have lost the ability to open threads in a new window?

Yeh, bit of a head spin - didn't know what was happening - looks good though.

I think its brilliant and very functional to my way of thinking. The weather, roads, fuel prices, members events all there at your fingertips.

This should attract more traffic to the site and more advertisers as well increasing the viability of the business.

Good an ya David and Michelle!

Cheers

an option to minimise it out of the way once you have gone to the section you want would be even better. you usually only want to find the section EG Forum, Fuel once then surf it without all the babble popping up.. I find it annoying as bleep .

Maybe I'm getting too conservative, but I think there is a sensible limit to just how much distracting stuff scrolling and jumping and changing colour and........ you actually need. For me, the site has gone past that limit. It's a great site full of information, but I'd prefer not to have to pay the penalty of being bombarded with the flashy stuff.

Just tried to post this and got a yellow error screen. Will try again.

Has any one done the 100 threads on one page yet??

Steve.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Please keep it coming, however allow yourself a few days to get used to the new views and let us know what you think. Generally the Feedback system is the best at www.exploroz.com/Users/Feedback.asp

Have a good one.

I see the active threads no longer appear at the top. How do we find the threads which have new posts apart from scrolling down the list and reading the times the last replies were posted?
