The new look comes packaged with the other changes within the upgrade, and they all have to be taken together. The old version was not stable or secure enough, so we had to upgrade.
Whilst I can now modify any aspect of the new forum, there would have to be good reasons to make the effort. If you feel a certain aspect requires change, please can you give specific details. |

Please bear with me until I can iron out the last issues I'm battling.
It is at the top right of every page....called "New posts" now though. |

I like it - at least now I've found the 'new posts' button.
Well done Mark.

I can't seem to find the old image upload facility (browsing the pics on my PC). The 'insert image' function is just for web links insn't it? ------------- http://www.wilsoniansc.org.uk" rel="nofollow - Wilsonian SC http://www.3000class.org.uk" rel="nofollow - 3000 Class |

I am aware of the repeated logging-in problem. It should remember you!
I will work on that today. |

| I know Y&Y is a business that needs to make ££ and ads are a way to do so. But ads that blink "Me, Me, Me! Look at me now!" will be subject to Adblocker. Ah, that's better. |

Don't know if this is the place to ask. But if I open a topic from the "New Posts" page it always opens at the first post in that topic, not the first unread post. Do I really have really have to then select "View First Unread Post" every time? That's incredibly clunky, or is there an option setting I can't find? ------------- Peter Ex Cont 707 Ex Laser 189635 DY 59 |

| I believe the topic link is deliberately designed to go to the start of the topic. The "2 new posts" link next to it is for jumping straight to where you were. |
