Yeah, it should be keeping the aspect ratio.  I'm not sure if you can do anything on your end, but it would be much better if images wouldn't get distorted on mobile.

Ha yeah I kind of realised this is what you meant after I had begun posting but wanted to double check.  I had a quick look and nothing jumped out at me, but we're still getting used to the admin area.  @Shorty and I will look into it.

@Ashley Love the Switch theme.  Already love the new features came with the update @Shorty. Yeah I have similar problem with the theme squashed on mobile Google Chrome but desktop mode fixed it. 

Cheers!  It's much easier to create themes on here than it was before!  

Also just noticed the tagging works dynamically.  No longer have to copy and paste usernames like @Kaepora_Gaebora!

Weirdly I tried adding a big image and it worked fine on mobile.  I then tried adding the same Mario Kart image and it worked fine too:

I then edited @Glen-i's post using the same images and its fine now.

Let's blame the rebuild going on.

Looks good although harder to read than the previous version. It'll take some getting used to.

One suggestion I would make would be to cut down on the number of stickies in the Nintendo board. Means you have to scroll down just to access the new threads.

If we can make theme requests, I wouldn't mind a darker one so I can read the forum at night and not strain my delicate eyes.

Yeah that's fair.  Added it to the list.

Any particular parts you're having problems with?  May be able to address.

We do probably need to look into the number of stickies we have there.

I guess the single column layout and bigger font meant the old board was quite easy to read, but it's not a big problem, just something to get used to. Maybe using a few more shades of grey/colour to box information blocks a bit more would help but I'm probably talking rubbish.

It's been a long day so excuse me for my denseness but we currently have a one column layout when viewing posts (but not on the forum/thread listings) and I think the font size is the same but we currently don't have access to the old forum so I can double check, but will do when I can.

I was getting so confused then when the forum started beeping at me! I'd just turned my PS4 controller on at the same time and I thought it had a new wake up sound!

I think that's Chrome notifications rather than the forum.  I say I think because I switched it on straight away so I have no way of testing it :heh:

No I turned Chrome's off when it asked me, this is just the forum.

EDIT: And by Chrome I mean Firefox. Apparently I'm very easily led and just accept that I'm using Chrome even though I'm not.

Is there a way to edit your posts?

Edit (heh): nevermind. I just can't seem to edit the latest post I made in the Nex Machina Thread.

 

There is a time limit on it (an hour I believe).  We could probably change that, think its just default and it slipped through the net. 

Edit - oh it was 10 minutes.  Changed it to unlimited as I think that's what we had before anyway.

Maybe I just need to get used to it, but is there any way you guys can add an icon/button that takes you to the last page and/or reply for threads? At the moment there's only a linked date that takes you to the latest reply. Obviously that's picky and not much of a priority for you right now, but I might not be the only one.

 

Also, maybe a theme that gives the topics a hard border would be good.

Nice work guys, I love this forum software so I'm glad we've finally upgraded. I'm sure it will be even more awesome once the content is worked through for a few weeks.
