Thanks for rolling back to the old layout. It's much easier to read than the new layout, and all the bells and whistles were unnecessary.
Unfortunately the new forum is gone.... but we still have a system to award merit badges in the old forum. I kindly bestow the 'nutmeg' merit badge...
Baron, you're a good guy. The candor, passion and sincerity really shine through. The new board had potential. In my opinion, it was mostly the visuals that needed tweaking to get the contrasts right. Either way, thanks for the effort and all the hard work.
The avatars were cool, the current color scheme is better than that bright white you had. Also, spacing was too much. I am not sure what was the main benefit unless it was mostly on the back end.
Old Spice was a brand of after shave that was pretty famous in the '60s. Damn, now you are making me feel nostalgic. I wonder if I can still find it here......
I think old style+avatars+up to date input and editing box would make the site perfect. But im sure Barons got bigger plans for the site. As Tablet and phone market share is growing, ET needs to work well on tablets and phones going forward. So we cant just enjoy the old style forever.
I woke up this morning and discovered an ET change. I thought I was having a nightmare, so I splashed water in my face to make sure I was seeing what I thought I might be dreaming. Well, sure enough, I was actually awake. I bet tomorrow I will wake up and the new, updated, and improved ET, with those cool, time saving alerts will reappear. [[[[[/////]]]]]...Grrrrrr...
