Just trying to find a way to stop images taking over the whole post. People can click to see the full picture. Its quite jarring if its just massive picture.

I have limited the width 400px until clicked. Should look better now.

Thanks for the other points raised that you've addressed so far. Just another question, how do we donate on the new format?

@Gizmo 400 is a dash small. please change it to 600.
 
It's growing on me... Search function is much easier from mobile that it used to be for me.
 
@Gizmo

thanks for all the efforts this far

i think the new version will take a while for us all to get used to and tweak over time
but we will work on it and get it good

i have noticed it’s much faster and is working very well on my cell phone

Am Posting this from the maternity ward where I currently am
very pleased and grateful that our second child was born on Friday
baby girl
mom and baby are thankfully healthy

when I “surface“ from the abyss of baby and mom care I will put my attention on the forum and work with the team to help get things streamlined

but great job so far!

thank you

Congrats to you and your wife @Silver :Saeufer:
 
I like that the posts now go the last read post instead of the very beginning. Just noticed that profile pics also seem a bit distorted. Looking much better already.

@Gizmo on the column of the latest member, is displaying the time a necessity? It’s overlapping on the threads updates

While I agree that big pics can be jarring, sometimes a big pic is necessary. In my post https://www.ecigssa.co.za/threads/cape-town-interesting-articles.49087/page-32#post-958156 a stunning pic of kites was automatically reduced in size when I posted it. It now looks pathetic!!
 
This is not to be seen as me agreeing to the changes being made, I am still sulking, but must admit, performance has improved remarkably.

Going to the doctor I used to get a lollipop to make things all better so may I suggest giving us a question mark (to rate posts "Please explain?, Ellaborate?, WTF?, etc) and maybe entertaining some more suggested rating options to ease the pain while we are at it?

Pretty please?

I was caught off guard with the changes but it grew on me. Few niggles here and there, e.g. clicking on classifieds tab you see a lot of other things, etc.

The one thing though which I am not happy about is the member ratings which disappeared. I was quite proud of the ratings I received as it's not random and one needs to deserve it, but that's my opinion.
 
Well I just read the forum on my PC and for me everything looks better and cleaner. As for ratings, I could not care less. What does that give you, some kind of internet status?
The reason I only read on my PC is because the previous forum was a mess on my Iphone, could not navigate, everything was out of proportion.
 
600px wide Adjusted. Everybody's ratings are still there. Level shows under your username. Every single rating has transferred as well if you go to your profile --> awards. It is all there.

Not awards, saw them there on the profile. Those are handed out by moderators as they see fit. Talking about ratings, the stars which were under our names, which is awarded by fellow forumites.

To me it meant that the person who had the ratings was trusted and well liked in the forum by other members. Not a status symbol as such, just something to show appreciation for your actions on the forum by other members.

Unfortunately that extension there is no update to it for Xenforo 2.2, what I can do is find alternative similiar system but the ratings would have to start from scratch

Fortunately the "ignore" function is still intact. Pity about the ratings though, it had its use as a kind of "trust/validity" barometer/assessment tool.
