I've been alerted by Proboard that this board will soon be upgraded. I don't know exactly when, but I think by the end of the month. So just fyi.

I've seen the upgrade. The board will remain fundamentally the same. Coming soon to a board near you.

It's different enough to require some getting used to. The board width across my screen seems smaller, amongst many other differences. The icon upgrade isn't as good either..

Same here, John. Why oh why can't they ever leave well enough alone?

Me too. I'm against change in general. I'm also against weather. Its always either too hot or too cold or too wet or, too dry.

Looks attractive. Only time will tell if it is superior to the last version. I am not against continual improvement.

I like change for the better but something about it is making me feel lost!

Why does it say I have a personal message when I don't?
What the hell is a "Shoutbox?"
Another example of upgrading something, but not neccessarily improving it........
Reminds me of politics....

I do like how the folders show you if there has been "new" posts added in that section...

This abbeyrdblack forum theme complete with green writing i've now selected is sooooooooooooo different to the blue Abbey Road forum theme with black writing i've always had...... Takes some getting used to though, it's like i'm not even on the abbeyrd forum but some other beatles forum,perhaps a forum entitled JSD's Beatles Messageboard for the Legal Fraternity...

I admit I do miss the jazzy, Yellow Submarine-ish lettering of the old "abbeyrd" logo.

I like to read posts by scrolling down to the bottom where it has the "Recent Posts" option. Then I can read every post from every different folder, all together. But if I want to post a reply (like I am doing right now) I can only do so if I hit QUOTE and quote a post (as I did here). There doesn't seem to be a "REPLY" option or symbol unless you QUOTE someone. Is this accurate or am I missing something?

It doesn't stand out, so it's easy to miss, I think. Tell me if you still don't see it.

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing or not, so we may be sure we're on the same page. If you read "RECENT POSTS" and get an assortment of posts from all different threads one after another (like yours here), I do not see any REPLY or CREATE POST option. However, I do see atop a QUOTE option, if I want to quote and then reply. That's what I've done here... but if I just want to REPLY and add it to the thread, I don't see the option. (I am not talking about when reading posts in their own specific designated threads; when doing that, then yes, I can see REPLY in blue on the lower right...)

Has anyone found a spell check option. Also, I don't see a "Preview" button so we can see what our post looks like before sharing it with the world. That is important if including photos or links in a post to see that they are working.

Okay, Proboards listen up you cyber geeks: this new fangled Board arrangement sucks! Folks, Steve has nothing to do with the new style! It is rage against the machine!
The bolden and italicize buttons suck big time! Try them and you'll agree! We are still a community of friends here but Big Brother is trying to alienate us and divide us! Fight the system, fight the U.S. Government(I couldn't bolden the latter because the feature sucks!).

Well, I have to be honest and say there are a few things I don't like about the upgrade. Mostly behind the scenes stuff, but in any event, hopefully, it'll work itself out eventually. Thanks for putting up with it, everyone.
