There are always going to be issues when changing formats no matter how you try to streamline it

I'm rather impressed with how various issues have been quickly addressed and handled

I could get used to it, but I do not like it.

Have to scroll more now, the background is weird and there's no shortcut to the FTM board on the main page that I can see. What was wrong with the old format?

Where is the extra scrolling?

I have to say I'm really happy with these changes. Everything is starting to look a little more pro and clean.

Good job.

Don't hold back and always know, all the answers will unfold
What are you waiting for, spread your wings and soar

Well I'm pretty sure it's narrower, so the pages are longer. It at least seems that way. Never measured the old pages and I can't now. Oh, btw, "new replies to my posts" doesn't work. But maybe someone already mentioned it, didn't read the other posts.

I have defaulted emailed notifications to off, you have to turn them on again.

The page will expand to whatever width your browser can support. It's nice and wide on mine.

I haven't spent a lot of time with it, but it looks good! I just came and was shocked to see it looking different, as it's been the same for the 3 years I've been a member.

Only one problem I've encountered; I'm also having problems with the "Updated Topics" page. It just says "Database Error: Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator."

From what I have seen so far the colours are brighter and clearer.  Text is much sharper.  In my opinion the new look is a little too bright,  however one will get used to this over time. 

One gripe, pedantic, I know, but old drafting habits die hard.  But, could you fix up the title 'Susan's Place Transgender Resources" image, it is not centred correctly, pretty please my eyes cannot take it any more.

My congratulations on those who worked to bring about the upgrade.

Kind regards

That was done intentionally way back when.  BTW if anyone happens to see the original image with the girl (she had legs) get me the url where you find it.

Hi Susan

I have reset my notifications to on and when I select "Show new replies to your posts" I end up with the following error message "Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator"

I have tried it several times but I still get the same error message
I have also logged out and then logged back in.
The error is being displayed as a database error.

I currently cannot see a simple solution from my end.  Your help in this matter would be appreciated.

Kind regards
Sarah B

Here ya go.

I like the overall layout too, but I am confused by the order switch on child boards. It's not too bad, only.. MtF and FtM boards have been split quite far apart, and I felt like the main trans categories flowed in something like a chronological order before - legal at the end, advice at the beginning. M'oh well. :)

All of that hard work is finally paying off.

One thing that is giving me difficulty is when I click "Show new relies to your posts."  It keeps giving me a database error.

I also have this issue. Which sucks because that is the first thing I check when I get on Susans.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

Same here. I also noticed some of the child boards are not showing on the main page.
