Yeah,
and as usual, the change is not for the better. slower than molasses in January.
And more complicated to use, and the green background in the typing box where you compose your post is very hard to read for us Blind people.
And how do you remove the assinine stupid picture off your post.
That Cartoon doesn't look anything like me, cause I'm Way uglier.
Everybody looks the same now, just like austin Passemonte. Eeehhhheeeewwww !!!
Change in life is inevitable, but that doesn't mean we have to like it

They did a good job messing it up. Someone should tell them up dates are supposed to be improvements.

No negative reflection on Forum Boss Wayne and Squirrel Spanker as I am sure the upgrade wasn't their Idea.
Would be nice to know the benefits to these up grades.
On a related note, I have not been able to use Photobucket since their FORCED "New upgrade" awhile back but one time after hearing a trick to post photos. It only worked that one time and now I can't get it to work to post at all.
This is the only reason I don't post photos any more. I have spent literally hours of trail and error on line trying to navigate photobucket to post photos with no success.
New and improved isn't always the answer.

Eeehhhheeeewwww !!! ** you wish you were pretty as me... balding is beautiful, babeeeee!!! <lol> seriously though, I cannot make heads or tails of this proboards build version "upgrade"... for the life of me I cannot figure out how to directly upload images here, considering I don't do photobucket or 3rd party hosts other than facebook

shout box appears to be an open-based instant message window. I assume this was an automated software build update from proboards... I run a proboards site for work (not trapping related) and have been prompted to upgrade for awhile now. other than extremely slow page turns which could be due to glitches between old build and new, I don't see how a user can upload images straight from their computer to site thread directly. If someone with admin status here could address that process, it would be nice

When they upgraded the Forum, they reduced the storage limit of directly uploaded photo's and many pictures were deleted.....that's why I have always encouraged everyone to use a photo hosting site such as photobucket.

I know the revamp upgrade is proboard's effort and I understand why they want to limit bandwidth carry as a 3rd party forum host. Just one of those things when using a free board versus self-hosted software with costs involved. I do both, know the ins & outs of each. good news is, you'll have plenty of fresh material to upload next season ahead

I'll go with a 3rd party host off my own server, pretty much lateral move to bucket and gives me full control in that regard. the extra steps needed to upload elsewhere and then copy/paste links is less convenient that direct upload, but by God we'll persevere thru it all! <lol>

One thing that is positive about the new change, is that all hosting sites work... or at least my girlfriends apple now works.... Dont have to click on the replies, just on the thread the thread

Avatar was easier with this format. Lonnie, For me, adding an avatar has been impossible with this format. The Dang Thingy won't accept my photograph when I try to install it. I have given up, and will now be doomed to have an Austin Passamonte Look-alike avatar. Could It be any worse ? walleyed
