    Hi Chrispy, I'm not sure a map of people's where about should be a good idea due to security of their bikes etc.

    Maybe I'll get used to it but at the moment I'm not sure. I know someone has put a lot of effort into it but personally I find it quite tiring to look at. Too white, too bright for me.

    I'd like the demarcation lines to be thicker and darker for a start.

    I'm also a grumpy git who doesn't easily embrace change ;)

    I like it as it works faster and looks better, just take a while to get used to it.

    Perhaps a link to members photo albums in the top header would be nice

    I've not noticed any difference in speed tbh and I'm not convinced about the new look.

    I know what you mean but I was thinking more of a general area as in borough etc not actual street. But I suppose one has to err on the side of caution

    Quite a few forums do have the facility where you effectively put your marked drawing pin in a map to give other forum members an idea where you live with the idea being locals get together for ride outs. All sites I've seen advise members to place their pin in an area near your home but not the exact street or house. Members then just use private messaging to get exact locations.

    I like the new look......but.....what size do your photo`s have to be now as i cant load any now. My album has vanished. At least Lucky the dog has made the trip to the new site.

    Nice job though Rob & im sure all us technophobes will work it out!

    I can see that you have put some work into the new look forum. However for me it's very white and bright.:eek:. I would prefer more contrast..

    I initially had log in and password issues which now after resetting the password three times it seems sorted.

    It is brighter and way smoother.

    Good job Mr Admin.

    Hi guys, there are a few things we're still sorting out and we know that sometimes change can be difficult but please perserver as it will grow on you. When Rob updated the sister Ducati forum many also didn't like the change but once you've got used to it it is much simpler to use.

    I'm still not keen on the new layout I'm afraid. Too white, too bright.

    I also get logged out when I when I navigate away from the forums for some reason.

    I quite like the look, but it keeps throwing me off so I have to sign in again and again, which is a bit of a pain.

    We will be looking into the sign in issue, it's a cache problem so it isn't remembering you as a member. Please bare with us :)

    Hi there and thank you. It seems to be doing it less now though.

    Cheers
