Guys, your such a patient bunch It's a necessary upgrade to the most secure version of the software and it also has the CMS we're going to use to get all the content back up. It's going to look like this for a little while, there's little i can do about that until some of the coding gets sorted and we have time to sort out the skin, it's likely to happen after the next software update that should be soon.
It will feel like bcuk again, don't worry
I dont like it much either i have found myself logging on to BB less and less because i dont find it as user friendly as the older version of BCUK
Hopefully it won't be up as long as it is over on BB. I've gotten used to it, but I don't like it much.
innit funny how people dont like change or is it like just an old thing regards dave
Unfortunately, home skinning of the forums isn't an option, it's far too complex now (unless you have an absurd amount of free time or are exceptionally gifted) and the rules change with every new vB update. I would imagine it will stabilise out in time, but I think we are talking many months before they have it at the point where it's as user friendly as the old forums. It is the way forward though. VBulletin are committed to this software and the old version will go down the pan sooner or later. There are a few better skins coming onto the commercial market, but they are pretty poor quality right now. All the really clever developers are waiting for the platform to stabilise before committing time and effort into rendering complex skins for it.
I am frightened by change!
I've made BB green, cos the similarity was messing with me mojo.
dosent look or feel as good on here somehow & only the graphics have changed...weird...hope it goes back too the way it was before...atb allan
