i should have made the picture bigger, cause blog, community and store links are in the upper right corner instead of being on level with the other links

OS X 10.7.3 Safari (5.1.4)and Chrome (17.0.963.79)
OS X 10.8 DP2 Safari (5.2)
iOS 5.1 Safari

Same results on all of them. Also "Quick Links" just vanishes when you are looking at a new posts search.

This community would look pretty decent if the ice blue text and outlines was just made black.

The color scheme works on the blog because there is less of it but on the community s you are looking at a sea of light blue links.

Nice I actually forgot that there were trade posts but even then I find it nice that way, thanks!

On the old version you could easily see the status of your inbox and when you had a new PM, now the only way I would ever know if I had a PM was if I checked my email... Any way to show the PM box status like before?

I like the new format but its more eye catching on the screen at work, meaning easier for your boss to notice you are not doing actual work.

edit: another thing to add
in the top left you get the path to the community your in (e.g Forum>General Forums>Site Quetions & Feedback>...), can we get this on the bottom as well? makes it easier to navigate the community once you read a thread and are at the bottom of a page. currently you have to scroll back up again to access it

As for the breadcrumb navigation at the bottom request. At the bottom right of the page is a "Top" link.

If you click on quick links and then subscribed posts that will bring you to the settings page.

EDIT: Forum Actions also has a link to general settings.

Looks very neat and easy to read (also rather work safe thanks to the white background etc)

Personally i don't like the look of the site, i prefer a dark template and les huge icons

I'm using it on a 17in MBP full brightness and its fine for me. Maybe just need a dark "quickstyle" template.

I don't know if it's just me, but the site tends to hurt my eyes, not sure what is causing it though. Anyone else having this problem? If I dim my screen, it's all good.

Thank you for updating the tapatalk integration!

Edit: Found the toolbar on the top, really didn't expect that to be there... Holy crap I feel dumb. Either way, it should be a different color than the toolbar, it has no shared functions.

I don't like the light gloss UI though, it doesn't match the rest of the website.

Is this Vbulletin 4.0 Classic Forum?

Not trying to nag or anything (actually love the new look) But any chance of an upgrade to the Publishing suite? There is a lot of info here that we could article-ize, and would be nice to have member blogs.

Before people go on about those features not being utilized by DJF's community , please remember they lost all their stuff, so they couldn't archive old post into articles.

Nonetheless, this is still a major upgrade and for that I'm very satisfied. Much appreciated.

BTW, Are you all using the WYSIWYG editor? Please go to Settings->General Settings

and towards the bottom, make sure"Message Editor Interface:" is set to "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing"

Another thing I notices is that the "What's New?" and "New Posts" do the same thing and the "DJ Techtools Forums" link on the footer actually links back to the blog.
"What's new?" and "New Posts" are the same.

I'll fix the link. Thanks for the feedback.

Well, there is the "mobile style", which shows only very bare minimum. Look at the bottom of the page. If you see "--DJTT vB4 Style", then you can also choose the mobile style too.
