Testing ‘reply’ function... one of the things I used a lot before was ‘unread replies to your posts’ so would be nice if that was still around (could be me not being a able to find it) - is it there still?

Just wanted to pop in and congratulate @boydie and @tone on a job well done. It's got class and feels fresh. Thanks for putting your time and effort, not on making music as I can surely guess you'd rather would have loved and preferred to do, but instead on making our home away from home look even more comfy and enjoyable. Appreciate it guys!!! Thanks! :)

Peter

I am indeed working on it, although probably not till tomorrow now.

Thanks for the kind words Peter and everyone else. Don't feel bad about reporting bugs though. The sooner I know about them the quicker I can spray em :p

I'm pretty damn sure I'm not alone in saying Your work is much appreciated Tone. We all tend to take our playground for granted and only voice opinion on the faults. This can be discouraging for anyone doing the donkey work.

Cheers Tone and Paul.  8)

Thanks guys

I am sooooo pleased with how the forum has turned out - it really has got the professional look and feel I was after, and I think the logo is looking great (I have already updated the Twitter with the new look)

The @mentions are also proving to be really useful already so I think this will be a great addition

Massive thanks to @tone for working his techy magic

And a big thank you to all of you that make this the best songwriting "home" on t'internet

We will work on squashing bugs, letting everyone get used to the forum and make a few tweaks (e.g. find a better way to stop spam on the forums and tweak the guidelines) to ensure the smooth running of the forum

@Boydie @Tone, its great work btw, I really like the tagging.

Another (minor) thing that I think would improve the experience is increasing the contrast between the grey background and posts? I.e make the background a bit darker...I find the brightness can be a bit fatiguing

Sure thing ram. Do you mean the in-post grey or the main background?

You may also be interested in a bit of free software I use precisely because I get this a lot on my screens: f.lux

It adjusts the colour balance and brightness on the fly according to the time of day. Really helpful

Hey

Was a bit of a shock at first seeing the new forum but really digging it now! It's looks real neat and sleek and works great on my mobile.

Top stuffs Boydie and Tone!  :)

Yeah, my first login was..."Woh! Did I end up in the wrong place???" So far I'm liking the differences. A big thanks to Boydie and Tone (and all the mods, in general) for all your hard work to keep all us songbirds happy.

@tone the main grey background (between and around the posts)
Maybe it's just coming here from the pretty dark look of Cubase that throws me off f!
