Got any questions or comments about the upgrade? Post them here.

Are we getting the alternate themes back? I really associate the yellow one with CBR now, almost as much as I did the PB&J balloons.

We'll look into it but there are a lot of other cool new toys the Admins want to play with first...

That being said ... what we'd like the community to do is to test the new version of the forums.
Test them out. Take note of the changes you like, the changes you don't like. Find bugs and errors if you can. We're keen to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Wow, this is nice...

I like it, but it all looks a little to bubblely if you know what I mean. Other then that it will take some getting use too, but its cool! I got to have a look around when I get up to see where everything is.

Edit:
Are our avatars the same size as before? Or did they get smaller? I could just be going crazy lol.

When I click on latest posts or Latest started threads it doesn't show any results. Also, when I click on my name in a post and click on view forum posts it says "sorry no matches"

Thanks for the help!

The search index is being re-indexed so posts may not show up in searches until it is done.

Thanks for the answer

Minor but frustrating nit to pick: After clicking Reply With Quote, the cursor is placed before the quoted text rather than after. No idea if you can do anything about that.

Personally I like the video image option.

I hope this doesn't sound rude, but I prefer the old style more.

So I never really got a response to my comment, so I will re-post it in the form of a question.

Is the new forum operating as intended on mobile browsers? Because up until this update, I never had issues posting from my phone. Now, I get inaccurate and strange word wrapping problems, I can't scroll within the comment box, and in most cases can't even see what I am typing until after I post a reply. Today it also did a very strange thing when I attempted to quote a comment, where it not only reposted the quoted comment, but also reposted the comments quoted within that post. I find it hard to believe that an older version of this forum would run better on a mobile device than the newer version. I really hope this gets addressed at some point soon.

There is a mobile suite in vB 4.0, which to the best of my knowledge, has not been implemented yet.
