New Look for Forums

[JLC]

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not. If I should e-mail admin about it, I can do that, too.

I did get the message about the site getting an overhaul and a new look. Has that been completed? Is this the new look? About the only difference I can see is that the table borders have been removed. I miss them, but can live without them.

The other difference I've noticed is much harder to live with. The text has become TINY. I have a high-res monitor which makes most text seem small anyway. I've got it set to increase the size of text, but it doesn't seem to affect this forum. I can't set the default font sizes any higher or the rest of the text in my little computer-world would be too big. Is there any way I can adjust the the text size for this site alone? It really is difficult for me to read...so much so that I can only spend a few minutes here at a time.

Um, the new look is not finished. The current problem you are seeing with the forum is a failure to load images, I think. So I will be re-loading the forum images tonight.

Thanks for asking.

John,
I'm getting dizzy trying to read the threads. I really hope it's the forums being reconstructed and not my pc. (You know how great I am with computers,,lol)
thanks

Is it just me or is there no uniformity to the column width in the forums? One will be 4 inches wide, the next 17 inches. What's the dilly yo?

They are in the process of redesigning some aspects of the forum. In the process, things get a little quirky. It'll all be fixed in time. I have faith in our great admin! I'm just glad the fonts are normal sized again!

it looks really good in here exept for some topics that are a little unorganized (all to the side or some part wright and the other part a straight line or all to one side). But in a overall view is looking good, I can't wait to see it all done.

Ok, allow me to explain the problem. We are using a forum called pnphpbb2, which was originally phpbb, a standalone forum. When they made it a postnuke module they did a very poor job. Thought it has a great amount of features it is still buggy with postnuke. Doesn't mesh well, wants to be a standalone still.

So I found an addon, a hack, to add to the coding for this forum. I added it and the gallery that I was adding didn't work. I was using version 1.2 of the forum when it was made for version 1.2a, so I deleted all the old forum files and uploaded all the new ones plus the gallery for 1.2a. All the forum posts/user info is not stored in folders, it's in a mysql database don't worry. Then with the upgrade the forum didn't work cause things were buggy. So I ran a new install and still had bugs. Ran an upgrade, still bugs. I guess pnphpbb doesn't like to upgrade. So I deleted all the 1.2a files and uploaded 1.2 again. The gallery is no go I guess, lotta work for nothing.

The forum looks like crap at the moment cause for some weird reason I can't fix the other look. When the site gets a new "theme" it'll look better.
