Wow the new layout is horrible! How do I change it back?

sorry, still don't like the new layout in the nzb section. Please try to put the age back in so we don't have to figure which release is current and which is 2 days old. I will be happy then.

I'm just going to give it some time. (seems nobody likes change) Have to say it looks alot better when I fingered out that my monitor was upside down, dam beer

Tried setting the skin via your User CP? That should make it permanent.

Maybe I forgot to hit "Refresh" :wacko:

lol, I just realized pixel wood is a direct rip from the background I used in my avatar.

Also I have the background in 1920 x 1200 if your interested tesco, because It is a lower resolution in the current "pixel wood" theme.

Sure send it.
I didn't know it was ripped form anywhere, I just downloaded the theme from vbulletin.org.

Eh...that helped a little. But the chunkiness is still there. Plus not having smooth scrolling on just sucks. I'll just have to hope that either this problem fixes itself or another dark theme comes along that doesn't have this problem. I don't know why all other themes scroll nice and smoothly for me except for Pixel Wood(best the looking one).

You know what, this happens for a couple sites. And I noticed this only started happening when I upgraded to Opera 10.60. But then again, like I said, Pixel Wood scrolls all chunky in Opera, FF, and Chrome for me.

HEY Tesco I like it when I give my 2 cents worth I could have the consideration of a reply back, makes me feel like I'm not worth the time.

Anyhow are you going to put back that HOME page look FST had, or is it going to be strictly just a forum now?


THANKS

Chill!
He has a job too, you know?
Maybe if you knew how much he has to do, you'd be a tad more patient.

Whichever it is, I'm always open to any suggestions...
Just saying "it's horrible" doesn't help.

And no there's no "classic" style.

---

Like they say if it ain't BROKE don't FIX it! ;)

I like the old look of FST which had like a HOME page, felt better, this now is just a forum, like we're missing something.

The old was just fine really and I'd love to see it put back if possible.

BUT if the forum will be an improvement then I can live with it, BUT please put something back that gives that HOME page look along with a forum, not just the way it looks now as only a forum.

THANKS

---

It's not being put back we already upgraded....

Next, the old NZB index was broken wether you realized it or not, the search engine rarely worked, it was just a mess....

And the homepage is beign worked on, you might give us at least a day after we launch the site before saying we need a homepage right now, it will be... Were still fixing bugs, getting stuff lined out...takes time, and yes the homepage will look like this one once it come on line......
http://www.unitethecows.com/

tesco is just one guy and is doing a damn good job, and we worked VERY VERY hard on the new NZB index, it's much much more improved, we can update binaries without deleted, it actually show what a tv show or game is about, everything is automated....less stress on the site and completely seperate from teh forum....and no longer in a forum type system which for the site to grow in the Newsgroups area we needed to get away from that, and it helped bring back the RSS feeds, which almost all wanted, and the naming of the downlaoded NZB's that everyone wanted as well. remember WE ARE THE ONLY FREE NZB site out there, that does not give you a certain amount of downloads a day, makes you pay for a service or to get our NZB's, or force a thank you to see the files, not to mention in English to boot...and WE NEVER ASK FOR DONATIONS keep that in my mind as well.

You are free to make "real suggestion" not just say "bring the old site back", can't happen we already upgraded and no way "to bring it back".....

Umm you guys are looking in the old NZB index or something...you ever hear of RSS?

http://filesharingtalk.com/nzbs/

I really don't know were you guys are looking at but your in the old part of the NZB forum. Link above is the new one.

I love how everyone is so so negative and we've been live for like 2 days!

The only alternatives your going to find are ones you have to pay for or that limit you to downlaod 5/10NZB's and hide everything from you but the NZB unless you pay for a VIP access, and only allowed a certain number of NZB's a day or are in another language....why not do this instead and give a week or two and then give us suggestions instead of complaining?

Plus remember WE ARE THE ONLY FREE NZB site out there, that does not give you a certain amount of downloads a day, or makes you pay for a service to access our site or to get our NZB's, or force a thank you to see the files, not to mention in English to boot...and WE NEVER ASK FOR DONATIONS keep that in my mind as well.

Crappy NZB forum? The NZB's aren't in the forum!

I used to be a member at another site that ended with matrix. Put it this way... they were rude, abnoxious, and I payed for a membership which later down the road I regret doing so. Anytime you made a suggestion about the site, they always had a smart ass remark about it.

To make a long story short... I came back here to my home on filesharingtalk and love it even more and will stay here for good. The one thing I like is that YES u don't have to pay a membership to get your nzb list.

I think tesco is doing a marvelous job with the new look including everyone else that had a helping hand. Keep up the good work!!

Your Welcome!! Now how many Brownie Points did that earn me? :wub: :bleh:

It seems slicker..yet more impersonal. Like a T-3000 on judgement day.

edit: ah must be the lack of the homepage - can't wait to see how that looks in this new forum.

Site looks good.

Personally, I like the Pixel Wood as I prefer light text on a dark background, and it does not negate the icons on the 'type' of item.

Hmm can't be bothered finding the setting to set it pemanent in User CP. Pixel Wood skin appears to work now, I love it - I just got splinters <3 ;).

Good Lord, I'm going to need to stab my fucking eyes out.

"Pixel Wood"?
Did this theme come from Home Depot?

It's here in case you still care :D
http://filesharingtalk.com/profile.php?do=editoptions

As far as I know, using the quick style chooser at the bottom of every page uses a cookie to set the skin, meaning that if you clear them, the forum will revert to what you've set in your options.

Can't tou tone down the biggest text a little. I feel like I'm looking at an logo everytime my eyes are forces to interpenter what the thread is about.

Sorry man can't respond to everybody and work on progressing the site / fixing bugs at the same time.
Also like others have said I'm doing this unpaid, in my free time, and work a real job at the same time...

The answer to the home page question is yes it will definitely be coming back.
There is a bug with vBulletin that is not letting me use their "CMS" (the home page).
I need time to find a workaround and right now I've been working on fixing bugs / design flaws with what is running.

Are you talking about the title that shows on top of post text, like this one "Re: Wow the new layout is horrible! How do I change it back?"
If so then I will be removing that, it's annoying me as well.
If not then please clarify...

Pixel Wood looks great but the blue links look bad (almost unreadable) against the dark wood. The color scheme is good besides that but I would find a more classy background image instead of wood.

Yes, one more vote to remove it. Damn annoying thing.

I'm using WinME and SEa Monkey 1.18 browser.
None of the NZBs show up on the main page.
I just get blank space instead of any listings where
it says new collections.

The right side of the page shows the search box and
the categories sections just under the search box but this part is
superimposed over posters names (I think).
Is this a flash problem./

I can't afford a new computer w/ the latest
os and software.

The old way worked really good for me.l

Help!..Thanks

Seamonkey isn't even being updated that I know or it, use a modern browser, eg.. IE, Opera, Firefox, Chrome, you can run those on any OS.

I will see what I can do when I get a chance to look at this.
But I'm afraid you're in the minority with your outdated browser so I'm not sure if I can support it...

Thanks. I hope you can.

Hehehe, I was using netscape 7.2 last yr and just upgraded to SM 1 which is NS's descendant.
SM 2 is being updated for XP and up as I understand it. It's all firefox engine underneath.
Most of those other browsers drag my system resources (Opera, FF)

I hate IE which is version 6 for WinME - no updates being done now..No tabs, yuck.

What ever happen to all the news stories that would appear whenever I visited here?
I can't seem to find them. Gone?

Tesco, any chance of the portal coming back?

It bothers me too but those are vBulletin bugs.
I can't fix everything myself, it gets too overwhelming when it comes time to upgrade and they fix bugs or change other related code.
I only fix the really big things or things I know they won't change.

i just miss the news feed that was on the homepage b4. I used the site like a newspaper. I would just pull up the homepage and the stories were in order now i see nothing but the option to go to the news forum where the order gets all mixed around with the latest post within the thread. i'd like the homepage newsfeed back

It's on the "to-do" list. ;)

Site looks great but please turn of the super-bold on titles. The text is to fat and annoying. Thats really my only complaint. And you have an opportunity to make the look of this site be absolutely perfect, when you loose the fatty text.

Cool, tesco removed those annoying headers.
