I forget if this has been mentioned yet (or if it's even related to the redesign per se) but it looks like some characters aren't rendering properly.

For example, on the Nexus 5X:

The same post on my 2017 MacBook Pro running Safari:

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...1b005cfa96.png

my biggest complain it is hard to go to the menu path, I have tgo go to First then I can see the menu path.

I can't imagine anyone likes the infinite scroll.

Also, it's very confusing to find Forum Jump, Forum, MyFT, and New Posts. Their positioning, depending on what page one is on, seems almost random.

Well - this is still terrible. Find I can't spend more than 5 minutes on the site at any time because of all the white. Seriously - who thought that was a good idea?

New annoyance: Is there no way to adjust font size in posts in posts anymore? Since the so-called upgrade the font size in my signature line is absurdly small - and I can't find a way to adjust in the the "edit signature" feature.

Did [redacted] IB test anything or think about usability before rolling this downgrade out?

lol signatures, the font size on those should be set to zero to save the few people who aren't aware they can be disabled entirely.

Yeah, to me that's one of the stupidest web design ideas ever. It flies in the face of loading things in the background so they will be ready for the user to view. Instead, the elements are only loaded when the user can see them...and then wait for them to load? Completely retarded. But even ebay does it! It's a trend I hate, but I'm sure it will go away once complaints of 'slow loading' come back and the pendulum swings back to form following function vs the other way around.

I'm still not seeing wikis in mobile.

The page a user is on and other page numbers on a forum page are almost non-discernibly from each other to my old eyes. A halo, box or font color change for the current page would be a great improvement. I realize this was mentioned up thread but should be a minor change that would only take minutes.

My 2 cents on this whole "upgrade" is what the heck was IB/FT thinking. Don't know how it could have been made any worse without a lot of planning.

Infinite scr:rolleyes:ll was in place before the current changes. I'm not entirely pleased with it, but at least one can turn it off.

I did request that the first unread button not look like a dropdown menu button, but this was given as an interim improvement. I will again request something a little more obvious.

I have indeed asked them to increase the size font when doing search (New Posts works as a type of search, so would be improved by this).

Please tell me how!

To be fair, the current button looks pretty much like the button that existed prior to the recent changes -- :)nly it is now blue. I think it's fine as is. There are much more important things to work on...

This was at the request of the moderators themselves that this be made red again.

Thanks for clearing that up.
I am going to 'Alert a moderator' to my own post just to see what that looks like. It was my belief that red denoted only the 'alerted' state, not the ground state of the element. Anyhow, it will be interesting to know what 'alerted' looks like now.

Well, there we have it. It looks the same after an alert is triggered.
So can the new skin not differentiate between alerted and non-alerted?
