It seems invision.free has upgraded the board to a Zetaboard.

This wasn't planned and will take some getting used to but it seems the board has changed for the better.

Some new features include
Tagging topics so they are easily searchable on a search engine, ie google.
More posting options - ie you can cross out text (something that is available on pay for boards but not free) etc etc

We hope member lie the change and continue to enjoy the board as they did before. :friends: :woo:

Blimey - that was a shock when I first logged on :blink:

It's a bit hard to read - too many blue and orange panels drowning out the threads - but I guess that's just because it's new and very different. Need to get acclimatised :(


Can you see I've had a little play with the new emoticons :lol2:

Phew! Glad the board's back! I missed it! :)

Will be nicer when (if?) we can put avatars on again..... but I'm too tired to explore much more tonight.

Jackie/Grace/Evie, did they contact you at all about upgrading to Zetaboards or did it just appear?

Forgot my password and have been racking my brains - had to root my little red book out and look it up.

Its a lot different to the other board .....but like everything, we have to adjust don't we!

Has anyone found a way to bring the section heading closer to the thread details on the screen? For me, they are so far apart that it's hard to tell which ones relate to which.

Also, is there a way to change the text colours so that it becomes clearer which are the new, unread threads/posts? I've tried clicking on "change skin" but it doesn't seem to come up with any alternatives. Orange is quite a hard colour for me to see on screen - wonder whyever they chose that?

..... Still trying to adjust to the rest of it, but those are 2 things I'd definitely like to alter if I could.

Blue smilies seem very strange too, but I can live with those I guess! I just think the colour makes them look more miserable than cheerful!

Hi Sarah.
Will see what I can do.
New threads/posts come up in your portal (or if they don't will sort it so they do!) if that is any help for the moment while I see what I can change :)
Colours now sure on but will have a good luck :)
