I like the new layout, job well done I say.

Just one little query: Why is Graham now in red, has he suddenly become a danger to us all? :lol:

I preferred the old one, object to having to log on every time I take a look and hate the new graphics. But then I'm a boring old fart. :evil:

I preferred the old one too, it's just that the software for this is SO much better.

With this one, there's too much to look at that drags your eyes and brain away from the text.

PW, you can now select the old graphics (as close as possible given the new features) now. Choose "subsilver2" as your preferred style using "User Control Panel" > "Board preferences" > "My board style".

I haven't gone to the trouble of adding in the old CTC left-hand-menu and background, but the display of posts and the icons using "subsilver2" will be very similar to the old forum.

Thankyou Anthony, I've re-set and am now a lot happier. That new look was giving me headaches.

Si, switch to "subsilver2" in your User Control Panel and those memories will come flooding back

Yep, been using that, but can't help feeling that the old forum was green and beige (with nice classical scroll work around the edges)!
