Sorry don’t like new layout. Lacks contrast. Why is my default italics?

 

Totally agree.  The contrast is terrible

They are working on the font and contrast as we speak.

Ugh... can’t log in using Tapatalk. Looks like I have to use web view instead. What a pain.

Good to see the boards back up.

Count me in on "I don't like it"...at least not yet.

1) What happened to the "back to the top" button?

2) Can't find a place to change the font. (Edit: seems they're working on it)

3) Poor contrast.

4) The threads that I've read no longer turn red (at least on my computer). (Edit: that's sort of been fixed already. Now they are a different bold).

5) The thumbnails on the right side are distracting. WAY TOO BIG

They are working on the font, which hopefully will solve the contrast problem as well.

I like the pics on the right side -- some will like it some will not. Hopefully they will find a way to customize the layout to each user.

patience  my fellow cruisers patience.  system slowly coming on line, it's like stocking shelves in a store or returning books to a library.

Looks like the roll calls are down however.

Ok, I have found another think that  is hard to read with the light coloured font.

When someone has quoted and you are replying, it's very hard to see where the quote ends and when the reply starts.  They are right on top of each other and no colour change at all.  

I hope they fix that because it's really hard on the eyes.

I'm just glad we are back.  Had to post to see how it looks.

Can not find my roll call either🤔

I just noticed the reply above that has a small window with the quote.  The issue I'm seeing must be only on the older posts.

That is good to know.

[rocklinmom]

I am also missing the Back to the Top button?!  Where did it go? 

[RDC1]

A lot of the old messages have not processed into the new system correctly when it comes to quoted material, bolding and other insertions. The markup language shows as text instead of performing its function.

 

I must say that I do not care for this new format at all.

They are still working on many things, including the font and formatting on posts from the old board.  There will be lots of changes over the next few days as they tweak.

Evidently I spend too much time on Cruise Critic - I’ve suffered withdrawals!

What are reminder points?

I think they are a way to 'punish' people who complain, like a demerit.   Note to Mod - I am NOT complaining 😉

Found them.  In our profile on the left side.

I have 0 reminder points and "no restrictions are being applied".  But there's lot of remaining time today.  Does anyone have reminder points?  What are they for?

Good luck with that.  The new system appears to utilize a totally different markup system/language than the old.

I can’t find one of mine. It will probably take some time. I liked the old format better, but probably just because I was used to it. 

[onboard2005]

Horrible new site! 

I like the countdown clocks and now the signature is so restricted.  Ugly emoji's. Hard to find things. 

I don't think I'll be using CC anymore.  

Adios....
