New Forum Design

Chris Hurd · May 4th, 2005, 08:45 AM

Howdy from Texas,

As requested, the "Who's Online" info is now back at the top of main forum index page. If you don't like the extra clutter, then simply collapse that section using the "-" tick boxes on the right side of the page.

Expand or collapse any section you want using those "+" and "-" boxes; the board will remember your prefs next time you visit... so if you don't give a hang about HDV then you need not even see that section...

;-)

Hope this helps,

Fantastic Job!!!!!!!!

It would be nice, if the default setting was no e-mail. I didn't discover several settings until my mail box was full of response notifications.

Oops -- sorry about that, Keith -- I'll work on that.

Y'all can manage your notification prefs and other nifties using the "Controls" link in the nav bar going across the top of any forum page.

Chris, any news on getting the old DVinfo skin back as an option?

Within the next day I'll have a couple of other skins available for you including the old purple-ish DV Info theme from before. Thanks for bearing with our dust... I know it's a bit of a surprise; only our moderators knew it was coming. Hang in there and give it a chance to stabilize... many thanks,

Chris, Any chance of getting the "old look" back? I'd enjoy returning to the subdued color scheme you used to have instead of this new one. You mentioned the week of NAB it would be back 'soon'. That's merely a cosmetic request though; thanks for sponsoring such a great community!

Hi Patrick -- I haven't forgotten about it -- it's still in the works!

I'd definitly be in favor of something more subtle. It's very bright. Coincidently the Sony forums went white and blue as well.

Oh and yes, Chris thank you indeed for all that you do for the community. It's much appreciated.
