Simple way to view new site - I think !!!
I am enjoying poking around the new site, and I'm sure in a few days, things will all fall into place....BUT, if you really are struggling, I found something that might help you out. Scroll down to bottom of main page, and click on the word "ARCHIVE". All the forum catagories populate, and you can click on the ones you want to see and it lists the all the posts in that catagory, newest on top. I think this might be as close to what those of us that loved to use the "unread topics" link on the old site? Click each one you care to read, it takes you to the post. On the browser I use, IE, once you read one, the link will change color. Perhaps this will make it easy for you to make sure you're seeing all new posts. If I'm correct on this, this "generic" link might be the way to go for some of you who absolutely don't like all the new bells & whistles. :thumbup:

I just looked at it. Do you prefer this over "What's New?" at the top of the page? I don't have an opinion about it. I'm just asking. Trying to figure things out just like everybody else.

It will get better....... |
Can you change the colour and type of font?
|
I just figured out the other board and now I'm lost again. LOL
|
My favorite evening passtime has me bummed ( going through posts on this quilting board) - too hard to figure out at this time of day - maybe tomorrow will be better, I'll miss this site if I can't figure it out. . . . :(
|
I'm just testing my ability to post and see my status.
|
It took me forever to figure out my pass-word.....QB with drawl is terrible :)
|
I'll be glad when I can remember the codes beside each thread- red envelope, opened envelope, etc. The meaning of each icon is at the bottom of the page. I know I'll enjoy those once I can remember what they mean.
(Edited: I used to be "regular" and now I'm "senior". I'm not sure which one is more exciting!) :) |
One step at a time..
I was one of the testers, and it does take a lil bit of getting use to.. Just keep playing and clicking, and do a lot of snooping around...

I agree with what you said, hopefully I can regroup |
I'm also having a hard time with this new setup!! Also I'm colorblind so I'm really having a hard time with the envelopes, lol!!
|
Still looking around, kind of confusing.
|
I noticed that everyones feedback score has reverted to 0. Wonder if that will catch up any time soon? Ann in TN
|
Need a tutorial!
Wish there was a tutorial on the new and improved board!
|
I read some where on here (can't find it again) to post a pic you have to first select "go advanced" I can't even find that! And can't ask how because I can't figure out how to start a new topic! This will take some getting used to that if for sure!
|
Opps, I spoke to soon! I just saw the button!
|
I'm sure after a few days I'll figure things out.

So far, not thrilled with the new QB.
|
We all just need to be a bit patient. I thought I had gone to a new site. I, too feel a bit lost.

I'm going to go look! I'm not a fan of change, and I LOVED the unread topics section. I thought "what's new" was news. Lol. Will checknthat out too! Thanks fornthe tips guys!
|

If anybody figures out how to get the signature back in will you please let us know? We all just need time to get used to this ... I don't think anyone over 40 cares much for change :-)

That sounds great but heck I cannot even see any word resembling Archive anywhere! And I also have tried to change the color of the phobt so it does not kill my eyes and that did not work either. How did you change yours?
|
Well, how about that, I am finally a 'super' something....lol
|
I just got on after 10 days and I don't like what I am seeing. I want my old site back. I've lost my best friend.
|
I guess we will just have to look around and help each other...
