Cosmin M. Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I would like to the forum to change its appearance and style to something more modern and more attractive. If you agree so tell us here, if not, tell us why not. :) Quote
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted February 13, 2010 Members Posted February 13, 2010 Hi Cosmin, I don't mind the change in the top picture, but to change the whole forum would be very confusing to me. We did it once already...maybe you weren't here yet. It was hard for me to get used to the change and I didn't post for a long time because of it. (maybe that was good???) Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

I hate change. I suspect that I am not alone when I say I am not the most techy educated or skilled nut on the tree. But if some want or need change ... I would ask what and why?

Dottie Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I don't like change, either. But if the top were to change, and just the look of the forum, without altering the way it works, it might draw more young people, such as Cosmin. He has a fresh point of view, and so does SivartM. This is only my "old fogey" opinion. Quote

I could handle cosmetic changes. But that is the extent of my tolerance for change. Is that "old fogey" ? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

Members phkrause Posted February 13, 2010 Members Posted February 13, 2010 I would like to the forum to change its appearance and style to something more modern and more attractive. If you agree so tell us here, if not, tell us why not. I have no problem with the way the setup is. And if most want to have it changed, that is also fine. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Dr. Shane Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I would like to the forum to change its appearance and style to something more modern and more attractive. Does this request come with a large financial contribution for any specific software? Quote Pastoral Family Counselor... Find me at www.PostumCafe.com Author of Peculiar Christianity

It was hard for me to get used to the change and I didn't post for a long time because of it. I agree. I didn't quit posting but it took me a long time to learn how to use the new software too. I actually liked the old software better. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor... Find me at www.PostumCafe.com Author of Peculiar Christianity

Moderators Bravus Posted February 13, 2010 Moderators Posted February 13, 2010 You do know you have the option in you user settings to change the appearance, just for yourself, to one of a range of different themes, and also to change the layout, right? Check your Control Panel and you might be surprised. Quote Truth is important
GreatLakesGramma Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I agree with the rest who say a change in appearance is OK, which you can accomplish on your own, as Bravus says, but to change how it functions is not. Most of the members here are older persons, Cosmin. We have too many duties and responsibilities in our lives to devote a lot of time to figuring out how to work a whole new forum program, to get it to do what we need and want it to do, when we already know how to do it with this one, but a new program doesn't do it the same way. It's not that we lack the technical skill, we just lack the time. Quote Catherine God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26. "To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you." -- C. S. Lewis

GreatLakesGramma Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 Time is even more precious to retirees. They've come to the point of discovering that their list of things they've been waiting all their lives to have time to do is so long, they still don't have time to do it all. And they realize there will never be a time when they will have more time. Quote Catherine God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26.

Outta Here Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 I would like to hear some of the suggestions that are being made for a change to the forum. If they are improvements, and not necessarily just change for the sake of change, then I'd like to see them implemented. The appearance of the forum looks fine to me as it is, the functionality could use a little tweaking--but other than that, I think it's already a nice forum. Quote
oldsailor29 Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 no change needed Quote Prs God, frm whm blssngs flw http://www.zoelifestyle.com/jmccall
