Woooooow!!!!!!

[iebidan]

WOW, this new look is awesome
Congrat guys, its amazing!!!!!!!!!

I like it.

Takes a little eye adjusting though.

Quick replies and it seems that code can be placed into a textbox of sorts that allows scrolling and doesnt distort or overly elongate the post.

My only annoyance is that I saw news links on the right, I clicked one and they were spam. They wanted to me to sign up to get the news, I signed up and still didnt get the news. But once its identified as spam, you know to avoid it

Which links you talking about?

 

[Denaes]

Which links you talking about?

When youre not in a particular forum, theres a box called "Programming Tips"

First off, its not programming tips, but some news container.

Secondly, most of it is technically spam. Its about macromedia and this is a .Net forum.

Thirdly, I happen to like macromedia and I clicked the link to "Macromedia looks to extend Flash technology" as I love Flash. I was shuttled to some site called "The Industry Standard", which tells me:

"You do not have access to view this story. This could be because you arent a member of Internet Business News from The Industry Standard. Please become a member of Internet Business News from The Industry Standard to receive full membership access!"

Whatever, I want to read the damn article so I become a member, accidently using my personal email account. I was still denied access to the article and I"m going to be flippin pissed if they sell my email or start sending me junk email.

Hum. I click them and egt sent to the page and can view the news and Im not registered there.
Ill check it out. I am also going to suggest that the links be changed to threads in Tutors Corner.

I think it looks a bit cluttered. Why the change?

 

[Volte]

This has been planned for a looooong time. Awhile back, Extreme .NET Forums and Extreme VB Forums were bought by iNET Interactive, as Im sure you know. As an effort to make the site look more like the other sites owned by iNET Interactive, the site has been redesigned and renamed.

However, it was brought to my attention that the site is utterly unusable at any resolution under 1024x768. I am using 1600x1200 and it seems to sit right at the "comfortable" level, so I guess the other, lower resolutions would be a bit cluttered. 800x600 is unbearable.

Seems a bit slower to load for me too... looks good though

lol. have you ever tryed to use vs.net on 800X600?

 

[Volte]

Unfortunately I have.

I use 1280x800 on a widescreen monitor and I feel clausterphobic in VS.Net and Macromedia Studio.

They all just have toolbars to the left and right, top and bottom...

I have to "untack" everything to get more space.

 

[wyrd]

Im on 1280x1024 resolution, and the site just feel cluttered to me. *shrug*

 

[ballisticnylon]

Is it indenting and coloring and stuff, oh my?

[VB]

Public Function ConvertToDecimal(ByVal V As String) As Double
If V.IndexOf("/") = -1 Then
Return V
End If

Dim Whole As Integer = CInt(V.Substring(0, V.IndexOf(" ")))
Dim N As Integer = CInt(V.Substring(V.LastIndexOf(" ") + 1, (V.IndexOf("/") - V.IndexOf(" ") - 1)))
Dim D As Integer = CInt(V.Substring(V.IndexOf("/") + 1, (V.Length - V.IndexOf("/") - 1)))

Return Whole + (N / D)


End Function

[/VB]

No, its not. Being able to see code as you would in Visual studio is more important than the look and feel of the site.. Just make sure that code is readable. But Im sure theyll iron out the wrinkles.

This will be fixed as soon as possible, VolteFace is currently working on a temporary fix before the full

 [code=vb] tag system is ported over to the new forums (should be quicker as well as VolteFace has taken the time to re-write the code)

Sweet.  Is the URL going to change?  To   [url]http://www.computerhelp.forum/[/url]

?

 

[mutant]

You still will be able to access the site using the old address.

 

[Faceless Master]

I think the old one was better and more user friendly.
THough this one isnt bad too.

[DR00ME]

The old one was way better... well but once the tag-system is back to online I have to reconsider...!

 

[ballisticnylon]

I think the good outweighs the bad...

 

[hog]

Well I got a shock! Thought I was on the wrong site Havent been here for a while as work is going crazy.

I have to say I preferred the old look, but as with everthing we will soon get used to this look:-\

PS I really dont like the pop up context help when you move the mouse over a post in the listings Keeps getting in the way
