••• sneak peek

[Jonathan]

here's a preview of what our vBulletin will look like. Brad and I have been busting our asses on this for the past 2 or 3 weeks to get it to not suck... so here it is.


forum and thread pages follow a similar theme... header is on all pages, obviously...

basically, the look is 'aqua meets grey'- icons and the sort are as os x as it gets, yet maintaining the current muted color scheme.

Criticism not welcomed.

[Alpha Mac]

Its ok, but needs more Aqua.

[EmAn]

Looks good.

[der Kopf]

Silicon Alley????

And for the rest: it looks good (although some might complain that you miss out on an opportunity to haul over the design a bit more - aren't the appleinsiders an esthetically challenged community...)

[New]

Is it fast?

[peperone]

It's snappy™.

[thegelding]

Unless you pay SFr. 500,-- into my Swiss bank account, I shall be forced to reveal your identity . . . :D

I'm not sure why Jon posted this in Suggestions too since we're not taking suggestions on it.

You probably should see the thread in General Discussion here:

I've PMed all of my suggestions to the mods. Let me know if you'd prefer it as a Word document.

Please can you use GMT/UTC for the clock. We don't all know the conversion from the differing US time zones.

I believe vB lets you chose what time zone you want.

[Jonathan]

BRussell: I didn't receive a copy of your suggestions. Please email them to me.

vB does indeed allow you to pick your own time zone.

[ast3r3x]

looks great

[iBrowse]

I think it looks fine. The few changes are nicely thought out. :)

[Addison]

God, how long will it take to go live? I am fed up with the current problems :( I want to be annonamous because I don't want everyone to know I can't spell.

Actually, I don't give a damn what it looks like. I just come here for the intellectual stimulation.
:eek:

No one should be equal to me and my post count :D

Must be tough.

I apologize
;)

[jimdad]

Sorry to hijack this thread but its hard to contact mods just now. Jon, is there a reason why my latest post uses my real name rather than login? Don't care much apart from the fact my wife can now tell how long I spend at this place. I can think of some instances where it might be awkward though.
