Ice Turtle Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Not being able to clear the formatting it is truly frustrating. There is an opinion to change the font but that takes too long doesn't help when the background color is copied too.For example issue like this one doesn't have a solution at the moment.

Primalsplit Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I was in complete admiration with the old design, so this one feels like a nightmare for me. And this is not due to not getting used to differents. You said you will not revert back to the old one due to designs, so there goes all my hopes. I don't think I will spend as much time as I did once. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maid So Fair Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Not sure about the combination of the modern foreground against the faux old parchment background. At least make that black and white as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChillyPolly Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 When are our post-September posts/edits likely to be made available (in read-only version, or whatever)? I had (for instance) done quite a bit of work on my "Non-Modern Fantastic Literature" list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordofmorning Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I think we should clarify here that we do not have any control over apps or mobile skins ourselves, we're entirely dependant on what others develop. A mobile skin is not likely to be created by anyone given that this is a responsive design, which serves all sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess who's back Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I like that the forums are not as bright as they were few days ago. That whiteness was really burning my eyes. Edit: Actually it looks like they are just as bright as before and I just had set my laptops brightness down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Doe Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 With the red parts it looks better already imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alienarea Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Good luck with the new site. These things never do run smooth. I'm sure there's a proper time and place for this sort of comment but thought I'd report an apparent issue with the display on iOS device (iPhone 5S) in case it hadn't yet been flagged and see if anyone can help me: the site is not automatically adjusting to the width of the screen, instead taking up less than half the width. Meanwhile advertisements on the site are adjusting and appearing at full width. Is it me? Is anyone else experiencing this? Will this be fixed? Also, my password isn't working on my iPhone and the Forgot Password link still hasn't shown up after 30 minutes (yes, I checked spam) so I'm writing this on my work PC as it turns out I'd left myself logged in on here... My iPhone is definitely my preferred means of viewing and commenting so I would love to know that this is under consideration (even if it can't be fixed for a while). Although I may just give myself a profile pic while I am here...Same here. The new design is basically unusable on an iPhone. I don't mind the layout change but this sucks.

Maid So Fair Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I don't know if it's available and I just haven't located it yet, but is it possible to get the old manual code mode back for replies? It was the only reasonable way I found of actually breaking down a long post and replying to individual points in a logical manner while keeping the relevant parts in quotes. I've noticed you can still use the code, but since it doesn't display it when you click the quote button, it makes editing very hard and you would presumably have to click the quote button multiple times and then delete the irrelevant bits out, which is a bit awkward. Red is definitely better than black, but it still seems a bit too bright and the cool tones of the overall layout still clash a bit with the background. Just get rid of it completely and just keep the Westeros logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daeron Velar Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I don't mind the design changes and layout but I preferred the brown sepia like background of the previous background. White is glaring especially in dark conditions plus it looks to modern furthermore I seem to have lost about half of my posts which is a slight bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Dyanna Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Same here. The new design is basically unusable on an iPhone. I don't mind the layout change but this sucks.Have you tried turning the phone sideways? I know it sounds silly, but it worked wonders for me. That way the bottom banner ads don't shrink the text.

Jô Maltese Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Disregard - Test Bla blaMy dragons need time to grow and test their wings The conquerors' first true test came from Lord Darklyn of Duskendale and Lord Mooton of Maidenpool, who joined their power and marched south with three thousand men to drive the invaders back into the sea.http://asearchoficeandfire.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jô Maltese Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Also, an additional update. While we await the restoration of the October DB, we have made the old forum available again at http://forum.westeros.org. This is not being done now as an invitation for people to start copying-and-pasting material from October 13th to November 10th, but just to make sure it works. Wait on transferring anything you really want to transfer until after we restore previous data.Thread / post here: http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php?/topic/113674-board-issues-4/&do=findComment&comment=7357478 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenezuelanLord Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 The only complain that i have (as a mobile user) its that this version takes twice as long to load, about how it looks, well its prettier than the other one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
