Hey guys,

I hate to be that guy, but the new What's New layout looks really awful. What's your impression?
@mods: any chance we can have back the previous version?

Cheers,
Klaus

Awful? Nah - different. Nor strictly better or worse...just different. You'll get used to it very fast, trust me.

I dislike how it doesn't tell me who is also reading the thread. I liked that.

That's true - it was some nice feature...

Huh, I hadn't even noticed the change because I always open the Source from the old URL which still works, not from the What's New button. Yeah, the updated version sucks donkey balls*, I'll see if there's a setting to bring it back somewhere.

In the meanwhile, bookmark this and use it instead of the button: http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/search.php?do=getnew

edit: Also, "New Posts" (which is just the URL above aka the old version) is still accessible via a button after you click What's New?


* "Why did you update the software if everything it changes is awful?" Answer: security.

I DO like the auto-save feature while typing out posts, though. I've had too many posts deleted by my Internet Explorer in the past (doesn't seem to happen very often with Google Chrome now, though). Although... I have no idea how to recall the post if my net does in fact crash, cause I haven't had that happen yet :laugh:
