Nice! Okay, I'm getting the hang of it, and I'm starting to like this new version. And I agree with Wayne that it's nice that it looks different from HF, I'm just not a fan of the skin.

Now that I've had a couple of days to use it, I think I like it. Has anyone tried Tapatalk since the change on their iphones? I haven't used it in a while and when I opened HC on my iphone after the chance, a message came up that it was Tapatalk enabled. My recollection of the last time I tried it, it had some issues but since the new HC format and I guess some upgrades by Tapatalk, it is not bad. If they add the ability to search the forum, it would be even better.

I had not tried Tapatalk before but when I saw the prompt on first view of the site I d/l'd it and have used it a few times. Looks like it will be good for using during work hours for me - quick views and such. But I agree about the missing Search functionality. I hope they add it.

Much prefer Tapatalk to Web browsing the new theme on the iPhone. It's so light it's hard to follow on a small screen.

[GPH]

Thanks for the smooth upgrade Todd!

I'm not a fan of the big red envelopes in the different sub-forums and I'd prefer a more minimalist theme, but I'll get used to it, not a big deal.

[Aimless1]

All in all not bad. Seems different but mostly the same.

My only beef is the tiny type size when posting. My tired old eyes are having a hard time distinguishing letters even though I'm the author.

[luvdunhill]

Is tapatalk still the preferred way to read and post from a mobile device? (eh, didn't scroll up, nm)

[John E Woven]

something i've noticed with the "newest posts" on the bottom. are those symbols to the left of the dialog supposed to be there ?

happens in ff, opera, chrome, ie8

[tkam]

yeah the stats thing at the bottom is a plugin no idea what causes those extra characters. doesn't seem to affect anything so it's not high on the list to look into.

Worth the $2.99 for the full version?

[Hopstretch]

Is for me. Use it every day.

Just bought it and I can already say Tapatalk is the shit.

Not spent long with the new look as I might have done. But one thing thats glaring to my eye is the very inefficient space use of this layout.

Peoples avatars and usernames (and such) should be in larger typeface. I have to squint to check who write what as opposed to reading it seemlessly. Theres a whole bucket of empty sky-blue space in that user bar. A sidebar to the left of each post rather than a title bar above it would be more efficient and reduce scrolling.

Theres also a large gap between the end of a users signature and the grey bar with the blog and reply options, that adds up to a lot of empty scroll space over a full page.

It just feels, kinda hollow. Maybe itll fill out, but I've clicked up the font size in Firefox by 3 notches, it means more scrolling but less emptiness.

Made some changes to the default theme, so now all the user info is on the left, and I've removed as much space between post text and signature as the system will let me.

[CarlSeibert]

Can't seem to get to subscribed threads on my phone. Is the mobile theme just temporarily disabled?

[Fitz]

Much better indeed.

[CarlSeibert]

Make that " I can't consistently get to subscribed threads." Sometimes "Quick Links" appears expanded, sometimes it doesn't. And when it doesn't, I can't seem to expand it.

[CarlSeibert]

Phew. Anxiety level back to normal. Found mobile theme link on mobile and it appears to be working fine now.

Am still seeing "view first unread" inconsistently in full size browser. Some threads show it. Some don't. Will continue fumbling about and report back.

[luvdunhill]

Yeah, this rocks...

Ah now, that is nicer. Top form dear chap.

[Duggeh]

Oh theres an odd thing, Ari seems to have close to half a million posts now.

[spritzer]

Damn!! Has anybody told Kai yet?

[Upstateguy]

Change?

[John E Woven]

Hmm, wonder if there's a way you can make the line seperating the signature and the post slightly darker, and if you can make the border around each post darker too. makes it easier to see where the post ends and where the sig begins, and also where each post starts and ends. aside from that, looking good.

[Elephas]

Hmm, it seems the administrators and upkeepers of this site, whoever they are, have made some changes. As evidenced by this thread, they also seem to be somewhat responsive to user inputs and requests too.

OK then.

Please enable the functionality for me, and only me, to edit the text under my username. I know this functionality exists, I did it once, you can't fool smarty me, you big nincompoops.

Do it for my account only, immediately or at least before lunch. I shall be patient and ponder about what I wish to call myself. You have 8 hours.
