Dear DUC Admin,
I want to first off Thank You for all the effort that went in to creating the new DUC! I must say the one thing I strongly dislike is THE RED LOOK.
Isn't there anything easier on the eyes? The color Red is a hostile, bold color used to typically make a point or statement. What do you say?

Also, my "sticky" on the top of this "Room Calibration for Film and TV" had OVER 61,000 views! Any way of putting the views back in the "stick's only"
Thanks again,

I like the red lettering. I sometimes prefer lav's... and I mostly use the edit window rather than the mixer.

There, I've said it.

We haven't finished working on the appearance tweaks. We've mainly been dealing with the difficulty in migrating information from the previous forum software (InfoPop UBB Threads) to vBulletin.

Marti, apologies to you in particular, but one of the things that did not transfer were the previous "views" counts. I'll look into it with the web techs, but I doubt that is retrievable once the import has been completed. Whether it was possible initially, I don't know. vBulletin does have a number of known issues with trying to import every bit of data and settings from other software.

I have to say that it is good to see the DUC much faster when logged in. I used to only log in to make a post as it was so Slow when you were logged in.
I have to agree about the RED, but overall I like the new look it is more like most other user conferences that I use.
I am sure that doing a radical change like this cannot be easy but so far the problems seem minimal from my perspective. Well done Digi admin.
my 2c

Thanks Digi for upgrading the server. Like many others, I only logged in to post and didn't just to browse. And yes, being able to customize the look of the forum would be great. Or at least give us something that matches the rest of your site.

Marti,

I think you can change this in your settings : Quick Links/Edit Options. Scroll down.

I think the DUC is responding quicker which is nice.
But I think the light bulbs were easier to see were new posts were,

anyone try a search yet?


OK I just tried a search for "calibration" and got an usable list, thank you, thank you, thank you

did I say thank you


and to think I was going to make a Max Smart "missed it by that much" crack for not being back up on Friday
