I've explored the site quite a bit and I like the new look. I know there are some members who aren't happy with the change and some who are having problems with their account/settings. For those people, all I can say is hang in there and give it some time. Admin wants to help you and keep the members here. I have never accessed this site from a personal computer. All I have ever used are my iPhones. For me personally, the new layout is much simpler to navigate on my phone than the old one was. I was also able to download a photo( even if it was turned 90 degrees) on my first attempt. On the old site, it was difficult to download photos due to the size I believe, and usually only 1 in about 5 I could download successfully. So, i am pleased with the new site so far. I know there will be issues for me in the future and I will definitely seek help. Overall, I think our new manager has done a good job in setting up the new site. Just my opinion of course.

I had a minor issue getting my password reset, emailed addm. But no response?... Must be pretty busy, but I tried again on my own and figured it out. The new site is great so far and I agree with Bass Assassin that it is so much more mobile friendly !.... Tried one picture and it loaded no problem... except it was still turned @ 90° is that just an android thing or do iPhones just auto rotate?... I'm lost when it comes to that stuff lol.
Anyways great job so far!

I have to say I'm surprised at the backlash here. I realize people don't like change and a lot of us just got used to the forum and it changed again. But, this is so much better than the old forum...just give it time.

Change is when you've been at a job for many years and you walk in one day and the company tells you they are closing the doors! What we have here is improvement in my opinion. I love the layout of this site. It's great to look over to right side of the screen and see the latest comments and posts.

I agree I didn't like the site at first, but now that I have had time to figure it out it is pretty cool.

oooldman, try signing in again, I've noticed this new site will sign you out, even if moderately active or inactive.
