Wow this is different

[Lamonster]

I know my buddy is still tweaking it and this is the first look I've had of 4.0 so I'm not sure what has changed and what hasn't but at least we're back up again. :thumbup:

[gene0108]

WOW. What happened here. This is really different. The log-in is almost off of my screen at the top.

[Y Rider]

Yea!!!! Back up.... was starting to go through withdrawal symptoms. :D

[DynamoBT]

If you go under "Settings" and at the bottom find where to put the screen in "black mode", the contrast of printing is not bad. I can see who, what, when with this setting. Not really liking the white print on light blue background. The black mode is different. But, it works. Lots to get used to. But anything is worth it to continue to have the forum.

[mxz600]

Look's good to me.:thumbup:

Everything seems as it should. Black letters on white background. Easy to read.
Maybe I came in late and things are getting fixed.:D

Except when the letters are in black they don't show up when I preview post.

What the f

The letters in my signature picture are white.

Thanks for all the hard work Lamont. Jerry

[Phil]

Lamont---- for the list.... have him remember the Tapatalk plugin.
I love the editor now!!

[G-Man]

Wow is right. This is not funny. :(

[fastfraser]

Its like coming off two wheels,you have to get about 20 post and lighten up on the keyboard before you get the hang of it .:roflblack::roflblack:

[ThreeWheels]

Well, I'm still swimming around trying to navigate through the changes.
One important feature to me that I really like, small though it is..........................

When viewing pictures the "Next" button is in the upper right instead of the lower middle. Before I always had to page down to the button, hit next to scroll to the next picture. Then repeat for each photo. View, page down, find next button, scroll. Etc, etc.

Now the button is in the same part of the screen at all times. View, Next, View, Next.

I'm easily pleased.

Another excellent feature: It appears you can attach more types of files now, specifically zip files, so at least we can share Zumo routes, or any other file by zipping it down first.

EDIT...As I posted this I see my Avatar and signature have dropped out. I can't figure out how to add them back in yet and I need to go to work now. I'm sure it will all sort out in the end....

The attachment menu still needs a little tweaking, the text is still white on white. I'm certain all will get fixed in time.

...but at least we're back up again. :thumbup:

Damn right! I had withdrawal symptoms when I couldn't access SpyderLovers for a whole day!

Made me realise how much time I spend browsing here, but then there is no place like it. I like the new forum layout and the additional tools when you're composing.
We can even drop in a picture! 29146

Same as everybody else, (even Lamont), I had the same problem. Found my avatar field was blank in "My Profile" so I reloaded it and got it back. :ohyea:

[Bob Denman]

So it's going to take a while to figure it all out,,, we all had to do that in the first place when we went to 3 wheels! :roflblack:
I was getting pretty anxious yesterday afternoon; Thanks for feeding my addiction! :thumbup:

[Roger]

Please be more clear as to where to change to black mode? i can't see and its driving me nuts:(:(:(

[Lamonster]

Please be more clear as to where to change to black mode? i can't see and its driving me nuts:(:(:(That option was removed for now. I'm still working on this one and I'm getting close, just need to find where the white on white font can be changed. :dontknow:

[Bob Denman]

...Computer dummy here! :opps: I found (I think!) where to edit the avatar, but didn't see a button for uploading or anything... I kept ending up in a bunch of pictures that I had uploaded... A bit of a guiding hand would be appreciated! :helpsmilie:

I FOUND IT!! It wasn't taking my choice... for some reason this started out as a GIF image...

[LittleJohn]

Looks good as of now (Fri morning) Kinda the same, but newer....LOL

It won't be too long before it starts to look friendly and worn, like a pair of old slippers. :roflblack:

[tofriendscreek]

Way cool, Lamont. Fresh, more options and very slick. Glad all the "junkies" are back on their meds. :roflblack:

[stevedfive]

Looks good to me, thanks for everything.:thumbup:

[Spyder Cat]

That option was removed for now. I'm still working on this one and I'm getting close, just need to find where the white on white font can be changed. :dontknow:

Okay, I'll just keep highlighting everything so I can see the text.....

Thanks Lamont. It's lookin' good so far!!!:2thumbs:

[granpa in Cincy]

Are you going to have to do this to all your other boards too ?

[Clicker1944]

Why does my avatar say "upload failed" even though it is sized correctly????
Never mind there it is....go figure.

[Spyder Cat]

I really like the "top" feature that takes me back to the top of the page
and the new smilies :p

[Phil]

Owning a software company, I get it. Upgrades are NEVER friendly or easy. Hang in there as the THOUSANDS of setup options are tweaked. Generally humans don't like change at all, but after a little time......:thumbup::thumbup:

[Lamonster]

Never mind there it is....go figure.I don't know, mine just said the same thing even though it did load. :dontknow:

[dshogman]

Got my Avatar reloaded but signature still not working.
Also, really liked the random pictures at the top of the page.

[NancysToy]

Got my Avatar reloaded but signature still not working.

Signature is there, it is just white on near-white.

[spyryder]

For now I just right click and hit "select all" and the type shows up in white with blue background. :thumbup:

[flamingobabe]

This is just part of the process....we are growing....but it's going to take a few times online to get use to it

[ARtraveler]

It is great to see SL up and running again. It really was a downer being off the site for a whole day--I missed reading the posts and the camaradarie that goes on with this site.

I am sure it is in the works--but are we going to be able to view our previous posts eventually? I like to go back and see what happens sometimes.

Thanks for all the work you do Lamont--this one must have been a real "bear" to accomplish.

[glynnk]

Seems to work...may take a little getting use to though...

[D&J's#2]

This is going to take some getting used to. I will have to play with all the buttons. I have been gone just a few days and I come back and everything is new.

[Dochands]
