It is a completely new website Mike, with a new look and new ways of doing things and, more importantly from your viewpoint, new underlying software.
I haven't looked at the mobile version, but the really old mobile version you have been using won't work on the new site.
IJN, when we did the last template change on this site to the current version, some people had trouble with the new template on their mobiles, and Gaddy left the old template version available.

Will I be able to stay logged in rather than having to log in every time we use the new site?IJN":1wuqz0bg said:We were planning to launch it this week but we delayed it as we didn't want to put the OS in the shade, as they launch their new one today. :greensmile:
Just a few things I've noticed, in no particular order.
1) We're all down as Green Apples, as you post, the green will get darker.
2) All avatars were deleted, and I've spent about 6 hours reinstating them. Some I've got right, some I haven't, so if you miss your old one, let me know what it was, and I'll have a look to replacing it like with like. Although I would say, it's so very easy on the new site to do it yourself.
3) For some reason, some old names have come back, I noticed a few banned people are back under their old names, and I've changed a few to your new ones (you know who you are) but let me know if you have changed and I haven't noticed.
4) For some reasons during the migration a small amount of quotes have been scrambled into gobbledegook, no idea why, it's no biggy and we're certainly not going to spend any time on replacing the gobbledygook with what should have been there. It's all historical and will eventually fade and die like all things on the net.
5) Posty and Adam are working away in the background, testing the system (Posty) and prettifying (Adam) to get this as right as we can.
Please bare with us, this is brand new to all of us, but will be quite exciting.
We'll open up a 'What have you found' on the new site and you add your tuppence worth then, you're bound to find more than we have, but we've been working on this for about three weeks now and we think we've caught all the major stuff.
The trick on the new site will be to sign in rather than to watch as a 'guest' as signed in members will have advantages over those who don't, but you'll find out when the site pops up.

Ah that's a shame but I understand progress must happen.
Personally I'm not interested in avatars, quotes, emojis or any whistles and bells. That's why I preferred the old version - just words. But I realise I'm in the minority, so no criticism on the development of the site from me and I hope it all goes well.
