rip signatures
Don’t like the new style either, it looks rather white-spacey and cluttered, 10 threads per page on default also kills all thread visibility for Marketplace, Looking for work and Job Offerings, which are important to have good thread visibility. Also badges are gone and signatures look very crappy
I know everyone is frustrated including me but Chance Ivey already said they are going to fix stuff and rebuild dark theme. So I think it would be better to wait, rather than clutter thread with same problems.
Except that they reference this thread here to report problems with the forum, and naturally people will just drop their issues in here 
I find the huge empty space just for small search box really silly idea. Why not move it down to the bar that tells you are in forums? Like this:

Bigger thread title and moving the subscribe button somewhere else would be nice as well, but they don’t bother me as much.
I can’t put images into posts, it says “please upload at least one photo” both when I try to hotlink it and even when I upload one. Even when I remove the image it won’t allow me to post. I had to cancel the post altogether.
True, just saying it would be better to keep things clean. Otherwise useful feedback may get lost 
Two issues jumping out at me aside from the dark theme:
- Some old links don’t work anymore, it seems, which really is incredibly frustrating, especially because… EDIT: It’s just things that are pasted behind the link which don’t work anymore. Point stands, that means lots of arbitrary links don’t work anymore.
- The search function only seems to return things from after the forum update.
These two together mean that I now have to go digging around for any thread I want to look at from an old link, because I can’t use the link, but search won’t return it either.
Hoping to see at least the second, preferably both, addressed really soon. It’s a massive pain
Thanks!
Try updating in a sandbox/VM next time. I mean, you are supposedly a company of ENGINEERS and your TESTING SUCKS.
Beyond everyones subjective, mememememem, black theme this and signature that, how about actual functionality?
I understand “updating” but when you BREAK searching you really need to evaluate which MORON said it was AOKAY to do this outside a sandbox first.
New theme is pretty meh.
So much grey, and everything is too wide!
The current theme looks horrible, the old one was much, much better regarding readability. I agree with others that you should have done this in a separate testing environment and only updated the real forums once everything is the way it should be.
At least this forum is still usable, it’s not a complete disaster like when unity tried downgrading theirs
Hey rarr4. Can you point me to an example or two of these links that don’t work?
Thanks
+1 for dark theme
Something about this design makes everything a strain to read somehow.
I wish I was a UI and UX guy so I could explain in detail what would be better and why 
Lost a few PM’s…
Nothing important lost or anything.
Just getting used to it I guess…
Also… What of the ‘friends’ feature? Is it just a subscription now?
Because it would be nice if a friends feature came back in a sense if it isn’t.
#222222 is NOT a good color for a 13px font…
What about something like this? (I’m on at 1440p screen, so 13px is tiny)
color: #000;
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 130%;

^ Hey that looks better somehow!
[USER=“9”] Ellis[/USER] can we at least get 1400 or 1600 as max width? 1200px is a bit tiny on 1440p.

The boxed layout is good. I would scale-size the content now to the entire box (possible your plan too), and increase font. The background could get some slight contrast, ie.
Instead of FFFFFF use FEFEFE
Don’t care for the defaults. I used to be able to access my subscribed threads from a drop down called “quick links”. Now it looks like I have to go into Messages and subscriptions? Seems clunky and counter-intuitive in some ways.
EDIT: Also, what happened to the Dark forum theme instead of this eye-destroying white?
