Thread: Tabbed Forums

Jon · 14-04-2008, 02:26 AM

Hi all,

As you would have noticed by now the forums are now arranged in a tabbed format.

Reason: the main reason we have done this is to save on the endless scrolling that we all do to view up and down the forums. The new tabbed format also helps make the boards look that little bit neater.

I hope you like the system please feel free to leave any comments you may have, as you know I do listen to them. Also please vote on the new system above.

Kindest regards

Hi Jon,

I agree that it does look a lot neater. I'm not sure if it will be easier to use or not, but at my age it takes a while to get used to changes . I will leave it a while before voting as I have voted in the past on things only to realize later that I was wrong.

It takes some getting used too (hope I have used right wording) for me.

Have to admit I love it... think it is all nice and tidy...gives the site a very professional look..

In time, I'm sure I'll grow to love it, but at the moment I'm finding it a wee bitty awkward because things are not all exactly where I expect them to be, and I have to guddle around a bit to find them.
It does look nice, though.
