Welcome to the new site layout.

[ManWithNoName]

I've given it some time. I like it. Wouldn't mind a bit of BF Yellow here or there, just to keep the BigFooty touch. Otherwise I like it.

Kill the sidebar though.

 

[RiverRat]

If the menu on the left hand side goes I won't mind it.

Re: Big ugly advertising banners

What's the big deal? Unless you're using a 3 inch screen it shouldn't be a problem. Even so you realise this is how the site generates revenue. the first 25 pages of a tabloid newspaper is at least 40% ads, deal with it

Tabloid newspapers are easily ignored. BigFooty isn't. I like the old one but the new one is OK. Although I had posts per page set to 40, and now the max I can get on either skin is 25.

 

[Alphanumeric]

Not sure if I like it.

Seems to be to much white.

I'm used to the menu and like it.

It makes it easier to jump to a different board.

Im getting used to it...but the annoying thing is the amount of ads on the page.

I don't understand why users aren't allowed to choose what they want (i.e. choose which skin they prefer, decide if they want the side bar or not). There would be no problems that way.

Re: Ad changes, BFSC changes - You'll like this.

Sidebar on the left is annoying, makes the whole page looks small.

As I've said, maintaining multiple skins would not work out from our end.

 

[hawks_time]

What needs maintaining for an old skin?

Presumably for all the updates and add ons they'd need to configure them and work them out for both skins.

Those little thread indicators that says "New posts", "Thread is closed", "You have posted in this thread" aren't too good.

They're a little bit too small and a bit too hard to see if you've replied to that thread and yeah.

Just suggesting that maybe something else that is a tad bigger and more understandable can be used.

Yep. I just came on here to post the same thing.

By the way, the blue is growing on me.

Yeah I don't mind the rest of it, but the icons are very average.

Moisturiser, Botox Injections.......

When you mouse over those thread indicators is the "you have made 1 post in this thread, last one today" bit new? Or have I just not paid attention for the last 12 months?

Cos I like it

Always been there.

 

[blues4flag]

The "page cannot be found" page still has the old layout.

 

[Chief]

Yep that's the 404.html which I haven't updated in yonks.

I should really...

 

[estibador]

One of the threads I'm subscribed to on the eagles sub-board doesn't show up in My Bigfooty any more. A few other people have said they're having the same problem too.

Is this just a bug in the new format or is it some other problem?

(It still doesn't show up if I switch back to the old format either)

 

[Chief]

If you subscribe again does it show up as subscribed?

 

[estibador]

Nope I tried that.

Just noticed there's a thread I've posted in on the main board where the same thing has happened.

 

[Cousin Jed]

Is it possible to get the colours for the links darkened up a bit? (Or Underlined like on the old skin) It seems to blend in with the site page a bit much without the underline.

For Example I went into that thread and you could barely tell where the link was before the OP edited in the full link as you can see.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Old style > New style.


Also Chief, what will you do if Apple sue you?

 

[DIG]

I don't know about anyone else but I'm yet to use the quick links on the left to other boards, have found them pointless.

By the time I've scrolled down a page they've disappeared and i use the forum jump at the bottom instead.
