I like the new look of the forums... I think it'll take a bit of getting used to, but I think the the interface looks a lot prettier. Although I'm disappointed that the quick reply box seems to have vanished What does everyone else think?

Not loving the new look i have to say. It is more modern but seems slightly harder to navigate around. In time my opinion will probably change though

What i am liking is the chat box on the main page. I can see that being quite popular with people when watching games at home venting your frustrations (or preferably delight) at the progress of a match live as it happens rather than reposting each time, etc. Great idea!

Hey boys this is a the default v3 skin - not decided on yet if it will remain.

Things like quick reply are mods and will be added back piece by piece.

Is everybody on wide screen resolutions? I'm finding with my old square res screen that the chat box is not sizing for my screen and it is pushing the whos online thing down below it and looks ugly. Also I can't post in the chat box right now for some reason.

Yes I like the new look. But also can't seem to chat and the avatars don't seem to come up.

Do i really see the word prettier on a WESTHAM FORUM,whats with that .Gonna take some time to get used to it as my eyes arent great and struggle to see where the new posts are.

I dont have widescreen and mine appears to be fine. SHould add some claret into the colour scheme otherwise its looking shiny so far

Avatars must be reuploaded by each user for them to show up by the looks of things.

Risky - don't actually get much say in colour scheme unfortunately unless we go advanced which may be considered once we get things straightened up. There are different skins to choose from but you are stuck with the colour scheme set in those skins.

I'm considering disabling the chat box until we can get it working properly. I can't use it and Davros can't - it seems only a select few can. What is the secret boys?

I've disabled the chat box for now. I have an assignment to do so I'll come back to the forums later and have a play around with a few settings and stuff. Mods have lost their colours and stuff which I will need to look into.

Cheers Guys.

Much better, needs tweaking but so far I like it heaps better

I think the chat box will actually be hell for me when my nets capped. The p age seemed to load alot quicker after it was disabled.

Shame about the colour scheme

Still haven't finished this assignment but thought I'd pop online.

Have to say now the chatbox has gone the appearance of the site is pretty slick. Also some added functionality is pretty cool.

I have a mod which I've been working on the last couple of weeks which I'm going to add soon which I think people will like. Watch this space.

Anyone that thinks the old forum looked better must be off their rocker IMO as this looks pretty good. I especially like the way Announcements are a seperate window to the main posts - makes it very easy to see what the next meets are in the supporters clubs meets forum.

Good now....

Not too sure when the chat bar was at the top. Maybe if it can be placed on the side it would work better.

i think a better way of seperating posts would be good. Make the border around it a bit thicker or something.

Am having problems with all the smiles when i am posting i can only see 11 of them,the others are there but they are just a square with a dot in it and when you put the mouse over it it tells me what it is.Any ideas anyone on how i can fix this problem.

Issue was that all the old uploaded ones no linger existed only the standard ones. The new standard ones were shit IMO so I've uploaded a whole new set - hope you like them.
