Sorry to say I agree with all the previous comments totally.

This is a very amatuerish layout and when you change from one format to the next, it should be better looking and more user friendly than the last.

Unforunately this is not the case. I am very surprised that a professional organisation such as C & MH would have approved of this layout.

Professional web page designers have a strict NO NO.

Too much WHITE in the page is NOT ON.

And what do we have?

A purely white page!!


So to summarise.

[*] Too Much White

[*] Needs a Colour Background

[*] Print too small for older persons

[*] Starter comments should come up with cursor before click on subject. At the moment only the date posted does.

[*] A forwarding link from the old Forum page to this one should be planted for those with the old site in the Favourites column.

[*] Easier photo postings method

Just my two bobs worth but if it doesnt happen readership and membership WILL drop off.

Bluey,

Thank you for your post.
All valid comments are noted and passed on to Admin.
They are working to improve and rectify various areas commented on by members.
It will, I understand, take a little time to resolve some issues.

I miss the starer comments not being available when the cursor is placed on the heading. It is very helpful in deciding if you wish to read the particular post. If you are good enough to restore it, it would be helpful if the comments didn't disappear before they could be fully read by a slow coach like myself!

I've said it before and I'll say it again -
By the time admin fixes this site (if they really intend to)
there will be very few to appreciate it.
Just look at the couple of members on board at any given time.
at the moment there is only me
I disagree that they can't find there way to it...... It's just they are no longer interested in the new layout, colour, format etc.
Sorry but I realise you can't please all of the people all of the time but just pleasing half would be good..................

Hi,

I thought maybe I should address some of the comments:

- Too much white / needs background colour: embedded colour scheme of this software - attempting to get a solution
- Print too small: to enlarge print, hold down the Ctrl button and press + or scroll the mouse
- Starter comments: not a feature of this software
- Old forum address: I believe you will automatically redirect to the new one. This is certainly the case with the shortcut I used to use.
- Easier photos: I believe photo attachments will soon be possible

Thankyou all for you patience.

I have saved a lot of links to GOOGLE Maps for future reference and now they are invalid. Two examples:

Quite disappointing really.

The search engine still does not work properly but here are your saved threads

viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6562&start=20
viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5620&start=20

The problem is I have 100's saved, that was just from a random selection, how ever by doing a cut and paste the links you gave still did not work? Fine clicking on them from the forum.

Cheers
Bruce
