Was a bit shocked with the appearance when I opened the forum and had to enter my username and password to get in. I agree with the majority that the camouflage scheme is not very attractive and the blue emoji are not my cup of tea either. I hope Robert takes the advice of PeeBeep and switches to a skin acceptable to old grumpy gits. Gr. Sjaak |

Thank you Dr. King; well said. Note that one can't do much but look if not logged in. I hit "quote" to reply to RJ and was told I was not logged in; which I was not. I logged in and then got the main page. Yesterday I would have gotten the reply screen with RJ's post in the quote box. That is, logging in would simply have interrupted what I was doing, then taken me back to it. Now one gets the main page and has to go back to where one was and start again. |

Somebody pick me up! This is a complete shock! I guess I'll get with Paul and see if I can make something from this chaos...

Harold K & RJ Tucker. Your sentiment is correct ... to an extent. One should judge a site primarily by the content and not how it looks ... but if one can't read any topic headings due to the lack of contrast between the stark white background and the yellow-ish print (not to mention print size currently on this forum), it kinda defeats the purpose of coming to the forum in the first place. Not everyone has perfect vision. Scott |

You need to be on the front page. On any given page go to the top left and click '72nd Aircraft' which links to the front page. Scroll right to the bottom and you'll see a row of orange text and click 'Active topics'. |

Folks, don't panic, I can help Robert fix this, but I'm away for a couple of days so you'll have to bear with it until I get back. |

I don't know whether to put down my discomfort to the novelty, the cyanotic emoji, the horrible orange color that should never be used for type, or the vast sea of white (just boring, that). No ergonomicists at Zetaboards, I gather. |

I have faith that our dear leader and elves will make improvements. Was this due to a software upgrade? |

Yes, this is Zeta, which is another part of Invision. Quite some time ago Invision told their free board users that they wouldn't be supporting Invisionfree and that if you wanted a supported board then transfer to Zetaboards. Unlike Invision you can load customised themes into Zeta. The theme here uses the Zeta corporate style, but Zeta assume that you will load alternative themes rather than stick with this one. It's horrible to look at and read, IMO. |

Oh my, not a good sign when the Governor General of the site is surprised by the changes... I take it this is the transition we were told to expect quite awhile ago. |
