The new web-sight SUCKS

[Mac-7]

I posted it here because this was the first time I found a way to start a thread

I hope the mods will leave it up because I would like to see how many members agree with me

Why cant the Wizards of Smart sitting in their ivory tower do us a favor and not fix something that isnt broke?

Yes you changed everything, but you improved nothing

Why so many eagles everywhere on the site now?

It’s a bit much

I'm worried about the owners ... these upgrades look expensive and that's food out of ownership's mouth ... you know with all these aviation accidents of late, the price of airplane wax is skyrocketing ... the owners need the money more than we need awful colors and purposeless links ...

Though I plan on using the Amazon.com link ... that is super convenient ...

You know you can go back to the old format, right?

I did.

No, you can't quit lying

Looking at it right now.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

I didnt know that

I just woke up one morning and everything was changed

How do I do that?

And why do I have to ask you instead of the mods explaining to everyone clearly?

That figures

What did we do to deserve the stupid assholes that control this board?

Top right corner of the page between search and the notifications bell is a little icon. click it and select the sun looking thing.

close enough

RetiredGySgt is right. Of course, there is some confusion over what is new vs. what is old.

The "new style" some people are referring to is actually the same style that has been the default since 2023. It's not really new, it's been the default for guests and all regular members who DID NOT change it to the "old" style when we did the last upgrade in 2023.

That old style went away with this recent upgrade, so some people had to move to the "New" style which has been the default style since 2023... so people who haven't been on that skin, this is the old style.

Confusing for sure.

Anyway, long story short -- about 40 people used the "Old" style that is no longer available but the squeaky wheel gets the grease I guess... complaints always outnumber the positive feedback.

I was told the old skin was gone for good. I know you can control the font size by holding the CTRL key and moving the mouse wheel. Couldn't tell you how to do it if you ain't got a mouse wheel. In any event, I'm not a fan of the new skin but I can still read and respond to somebody's post. Wonder if Trump knows about this, lol. j/k
