Pugski site update

[Jilly]

Instead of TOP you have an arrow.

Yes, but is it something new today? I am currently limited to mobile and don't normally use it for surfin'.

This is how I've always accessed the site. I would prefer that the "New Posts" I have read remain, in place, on the list for the duration of the login. Is the "Top" button on mobile new?

The new format will have the main articles at pugski.com and the forum at pugski.com/forum. (right now it is forum.pugski.com and forum.pugski.com/forum) Hope this helps some.

I believe it used to be this.


So now the arrow is bigger.

Hmm, never knew this was there. Cool

The menu strip for me now has... for access to something I use constantly, Mark Forums Read. I never go to the archive thingy. Why is that so early in the menu strip?



Also, where is this Top or arrow thing everyone is talking about? Apparently I don't have it. So, the new look is not a good look for me.

Are you on a tablet? The site is responsive and shrinks and grows based on the device you use. Now on a desktop browser window, more expanded, it looks like this.



The UP arrow would be be at the bottom the page if you scroll all the way down.

I'm not so sure about this new nav bar situation with the grey buttons/background. It looks like Windows 3.1 to me =/

More functionally -

And for anyone who had previously bookmarked the New Posts as https://forum.pugski.com/forum/find-new/posts - it's now https://forum.pugski.com/find-new/posts

Do you mean this..

Yeah the old version was "flat", this will be changed.

 

[Mothertucker]

It's just another way to navigate the site, on other forums I use it to get to the back button, but on this site that back button just returns you to the bottom of the page you are on. You can also use the forum jump button. Forgot to add quote @Sibhusky.

I didn't have a problem with the old menu layout. Or maybe I did, but the stuff I wanted wasn't hidden so I didn't know I was missing it.

I think it looks great. I don't mind the red but no caps cause then this sensitive gal will feel like I'm being yelled at

I'm not sure what you are referring to. Why would a Top button take me to the BOTTOM of a page? And what is this "jump" button?

Looks awesome. I wouldn't have said the previous was "broken" but I like the fix quite a bit.

I edited my post for clarity. The way I navigate a site may differ from other methods. The forum jump is the little box with an arrow in the corner, just above the new "Top arrow", and you can jump anywhere on the site.

We could not ask for more. Thank.

Excellent!

And lest it get lost in all my nitpickery - Thanks to all of you putting effort into maintaining the site and keeping the software up to date! I know it was a late night and will be a long day for you.

Yes, we've found that we've needed to change some of our bookmarks.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but...

I like it, especially the rework of the front page. Design wise I would have personally hired the graphics designers from the Nordica psychadelic clown days, but this color scheme works too.
