    I like the fact that its better compatible with smart phones, etc.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    A wise man once said "google it"

    *boo* *hiss*

    I think what we need is new icons for the posts on the thread list pages:
    http://www.hptuners.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?28-Lounge
    I do not like the way that page looks at all.

    Perhaps something that incorporates a table display or some other HPT related media.

    I love the new forum color scheme/layout though (I designed it, heh)..

    i thought it looked different. wasn't sure though since i'd been fooling around with the zoom some. sometimes it takes me a while to notice website changes. looks good though.

    Well if it works better for the users then it gets a thumbs up from me! I think the lay out actually makes reading the text easier as well. Seems a lot brighter for some reason to me too! maybe I just need sleep.... lol

    Didn't see anyone mention it, not everyone I don't think will know how to change the forum to be compatible with their phones. So, scroll down to the bottom of any page you open here and on the Left side you will see "HPT BLUE" with a drop beside it. Click the drop down and at the bottom of that drop you will see "Default Mobile Style". Choose that for best function of the site with your phone!

    I Don't know if anyone else is experiencing this but since the upgrade, even though I check the "remember me" box I seem to have to log into the forum every day.

    Not sure if I like it. It kinda looks like a cheap V bulletin format. Just my opinion which don't mean a hill o' beans.

    The old format was better visually and functionally. And I also have the same problem with the cookies not keeping me logged in now.

    Not a fan of the big multicolor thread indicators, I can't see
    anything describing the color code meaning and the density
    is way down (threads per page) which I guess suits all the
    gameboyphone users, but is just a waste of 1920x1280 big
    monitor.
