I Hate This New Forum
I still felt like I was on DD when I was on the old forums. After all, it is the people that helped make the forums what they were. And all it takes is a template that burns my eyes and pisses me off to ruin it.
I totally agree. :(
I felt like I was still on the DD when in the forums.
the thing I wanna add is that I don't like how it still shows my favortives and my comics to the side when I'm on the forums. competely distracting. I wanna focus on people's posts and what they have to offer, and not when an comic is being updated and stuff… I have the Drunk Duck alerter for that after all!
Wow, some of you guys acted pretty stuck-up in the first page. This stuff obviously took a lot of work, and it's not like it wouldn't have been improved upon.
As for me, I actually like the new forum direction. <_<
Great job, Duck Crew, for making DD an even better place with every moment. I know you all are in the editting stages after the big transformation, as usual, so I shall sit and watch things get polished up. =)
Anyway, I found it funny that all my old posts got turned into Anonymous posts, and everyone else stayed the same. lol.
I shall agree on the notion of clutterness in the DD site. Perhaps a simpler color scheme, a single template theme, and consistant font types could help? I do notice many yellows, purples, greens, oranges, blues, and reds, and on the text side, many variants of fonts. I think color theory can really throw out some of the craziness going on.
Either way, I don't mind, though.
By the way, I keep deleting and posting, in case admins are wondering why I'm always the latest poster. =P
So, um, yeah…edit mode is to be needed.
One more thing; my number 45 member number gives me much pride. =)

Anyway, I found it funny that all my old posts got turned into Anonymous posts, and everyone else stayed the same. lol.If your name wasnt' the same it wouldn't link up the two :( But i'll match you up right now if you can PQ me a link to a post of yours that became anonymous :)
So, um, yeah…edit mode is to be needed.I'll try and fix that shortly.
One more thing; my number 45 member number gives me much pride. =)Haha i knew it would! (That's actually why i put it there) In fact, even high numbered users will someday have that same pride once we're 10 times the size :)
argh.
great now my eyes burn from the bright color.
i guess you can't please everyone.
oh well as long as recent posts come back i'll deal with the brightness.
sorry… but we didn't make it WHITE at least ;) It's sorta a compromise, no?
Personally, I REALLY like the gray… because of a visual disability I have. I have a really hard time reading black text on a white background, or white text on a black background.
That's why I chose the gray background for Mixed Bag… so that I could read what people were sayin' to me >>
Gray is like… the unversal "not very distractive" color :P
Sweet. Especially since I have to quote multiple people right now.

How do I PQ someone?
Gray is like… the unversal "not very distractive" color :P
Yeah, because Gray is colorless…and isolates nearby color. Which is why I brought up the color theory bit.
Wow, the improvements make this forum substantially better and it happened so fast! Who was complaining about some faceless corporation controlling us and not caring about what we thought?
Great job on enlargening our names, too. And you know, it really doesn't feel as cramped now for some reason. This is a forum I definitely live with. Thanks for all the hard work, DD staff!
The only thing i dislike is the reply box being bright white, and the fact that peoples name's get lost under their avatars, make the username bolder or a bigger size or something.
also, make some way for me to know their is new posts in each forum, i had no idea this morning and was like "well i'll just click where i think there will be a new post.
Add a "Return to forum" link at the bottom of the page, i hate having to scroll up.
I really like the new forum except that though.
The problem with usernames being lost under avatars is not because they aren't bold, because they literally are already, but because it's not very different from the grey background in color behind them, and the same-sized user info beneath them. I'd suggest a more distinguishing approach. Even black beats this dark grey, and a larger font size would help greatly (I noticed short names like "Enef" seem like they especially get lost).
White comment boxes aren't bad, to me. The only thing I see as a downfall is the fact that it makes the box look primitive, but I think white is the best-case scenario with dark blues and purples everywhere.
If it is possible, since coding is probably a demand for this, but a message history window under the comment box would be great for times when people need to dissect posts to directly reply to people. It's not totally necessary, but it does help a bit.
Not much else seems to bother me, and since this is integrated with the site, it probably doesn't need that much more template-tweaking.
Am I the only one who's old posts now have a different avatar on it?
I got some Duck on em… and it's not me!
It's because you no longer have a separate forum account. Now your DrunkDuck comic account's avatar settings will also become your forum avatar.
