Domain Change

[AWS]

As previously noted in another thread the move to the domain http://freepchelp.forum is complete. All previous links should re-direct properly. If you notice any broken links let me know so I can fix them.

Also the new default style is turned on. The old styles will remain for a short time. The style change goes hand in hand along with re-branding the site.

You may be logged out when you first visit on the new domain.

That explains why I had to log back in because I never sign out on this one computer.

Happened to me too. Almost locked myself out because I couldn't remember the password.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

Oooops, I used to panic when that happened.
Now I use a password manager.

I had to go searching my passwords to find which one to log back in with too, not to worry. However, I am not that keen on this present skin, I honestly preferred the original one.

 

[DSTM]

I have to agree with you,Nev. Thumbs down from me.

I thought I'd been redirected to the wrong site
Once logged in, it reverted to the old look.
New layout seems a bit too radical for me.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

I like the new style. It's different and that makes us stand out.

I've already been using it for several weeks so I've gotten use to it.

 

[DSTM]

It is cold, drab and uninviting and unless you have 20/20 vision you strain your eyes to read the R/H/S text tree. Does not grab me in the slightest. Different yes but for all the wrong reasons.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

Are you using Free PC Help Forum v3 Default?

 

[DSTM]

Yes Cindy. Maybe with a few tweaks opinion may change.

 

[AWS]

The other styles are still available.

 

[Plastic Nev]

I have gone back to the old style now, just too jarring is the new skin for me.

 

[Mommalina]

How do I go back to the old style?

My eyes just can't take all the black background.

Thanks.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

Just scroll down towards the bottom of the board, Lina.
Look at the left hand side and you should see Free PC Help Forum Default.

Click the drop down arrow and a windows will open.
You can change your selection from there.

 

[Mommalina]

Thanks, Cindy. The Blue is much easier on the eyes.

 

[DSTM]

I use the Blue also,Lina. Better for my eyes.

Dougie, at least we old-timers have a choice here,
thanks, AWS!

U.S. talk/news tv channels which wish to increase
viewership would do well to increase the font size
of the running breaking news on the bottom of the
screen and choose a better background color.


I suspect one particular channel with a large senior
audience attracts them because of the big fonts and
backgrounds which are easy on the eyes. I only
watch and listen to the single non-biased program it
carries. Often I'll put the remote on mute to read
its written running breaking news which for some
reason seems not as blatantly biased.

Sorry if I went off-topic. Feel free to delete.

Too many things are going over to stark black and white unpleasant graphic presentation, it's as if we are going back to the old days of black and white only, and small space saving text. A retrograde step in my mind.
