2010 OCC update feedback thread

[d3bruts1d]

Clicking on "Home" in the top left next to reviews, does nothing for me at the moment. "Reviews" works though

Fixed.

Edit-

Never mind, it's just confusing. I thought that when viewing your profile, that big photo was your avatar.

 

Looks good so far.

Borders are too big. Bright thick borders and dark background color makes it hard to stare at the screen for more than 3 min.

I would make the post text box white again, Its a little hard on the eyes when your trying to type and have a dark blue. Just me though...

sorry man but thats just teh coolest thing....

Ya just give us some time to start tweaking the update itself was massive compared to the old forums.

 

The update itself was large but tweaking it won't be as time consuming.

^never again

So far, I'm liking it, but it will take some time getting used to. It always works that way.

Ballist1x Feedback.

 

So obviously this is new and not done. I however quickly found a few problems that need fixing and some new ideas that could make the new forum, even better. So here is what I've come up with so far:

 

Image n.1

Here I've changed a bit the top side of the forum page to make it a little easier to use imo. I don't think it's very centered so it would still need work from the devs and should be applied to all pages the same way if you decide to use it.

 

Image n.2

The post window was a bit frustrating to get used to since I couldn't tell the signature apart and also I think it needed a better and longer separating line from the posters avatar and info from the actual post. Also at the bottom where there's a + and a -, I thought it be better to just put then mext to the Report button instead of making a whole new line on top for it. I reduced the size of the "This post has been edited..." and put it a bit lower on the post window cuz I think it takes too much place and stands out too much. I don't think it should stand out so much. It was better before when it wasn't on a white background.

 

Image n.3

The biggest problem here was the background. I think that a white background with black text is much easier on the eyes rather than a dark blue with white text. Also if u notice that I've fixed a little problem with the right border of the posting window where the line would be a pixel to the right. I've put it back in place as it should be.

 

Image n.4

This is the lower part of the thread window where you choose your reply options etc. At first I was a bit frustrated and I couldn't even find the fast reply button so I changed it up a bit here and there to make it more organized and I think it's easier to choose what you want to do. I also think that a fast reply button should be added instead of the little window.

 

Image n.5

The threads list I think needed to have some kind of visual separation between all the stickies cuz when I opened the threads window I thought that the stickies were all erased but found then when I looked closer. I think this way there's you could easily find the top of the threads/most recently posted thread or most recent response to a thread and know where the stickies end.

 

Image n.6

The profile window had it's left outline a bit to the left so I put it in place although the colors don't match too well but at least it's in order. I changed the "Edit My Profile" button inside the profile window cuz I think it makes more sense that it'd be there and on it's place the things I mentioned under the first Image.

 

That's my feedback for now.
