New Web Page

Ah signs of people having nothing better to do with their time. In my company when I see such things I immediately seek out who the culprit is and fire them as they obviously have never heard the phrase ":If it isn't broken do not try to fix it"

 

This new layout is anything but user friendly. Shame on the CC design people.

I disagree. I am finding the new interface MUCH easier to read, the controls easier to locate and the layout easier to navigate. Kudos to the architects.

Love the new roll call format and type. Clean, fresh and modern. Well done CC.

You can change it back to the old format. There is a how to on this thread:

I don't think I can see anything different except the right hand margin seems to be getting bigger with those annoying adverts and the overall colour is a very bright white. Maybe the difference in look depends what device and browser you are using? I'm on a PC with Firefox.

If you mean the "Find your Queen.... Roll Call" and there's a list of the cruises in date order, it's been like that for a few months now. :)

I have the new format on my iPad and iPhone, but on my desktop Mac I have the old format.

Can anyone clue me in as to why?

[cruiseluvva]

I'm not keen, but I'm sure I'll get used to it, and it does make the Roll Call section easier to see.

I voted "maybe" a couple of weeks ago. I do not carry my phone with me on the ship as it usually stays locked in my safe. Not sure that it would work since many people do not even buy internet time. You (and your entire roll call) would have to be connected all the time to be useful.

 

As to the new CC look, am I the only one not getting it? Although with all the negative posts on various forums, I think I am glad that I don't have it.

I think it is being rolled out in phases so you may have it on some devices but not others or not at all yet.

I totally agree. It's changed to the new format for me now and I don't like it at all. Looks far too busy and the adverts on the right-hand side are very distracting.

I'm using a desktop PC.

:(

Previously when I came onto this MB I used to click on the bottom unread thread and work my way up the board by clicking on next newest (?) at the bottom right. This facility seems to have disappeared.

The only way out of each thread seems to be by clicking on Forum Jump Cunard Line - Go which leaves me back on the index page again. Unless I'm missing something?

I now have the old format again!! I did have the new format up until about an hour ago... Not sure why.

[newcruise]

Same here! What's happened?

Same here.

[Dowunder]

And here. CC make up your mind.

[cruiseluvva]

I have chosen to go back to the old format.

[Ray66]

I just hope that it stays this way as the old format. Fingers crossed.

[Scottygirl1]

I like the way the topics are closely lined up on the old format - under the new format I found it much less user friendly.

I simply went to settings and reverted to the old format.

I like to see what part of the world the members come from. On the new format it didn't show that. Also, it would be nice to have a "like" button so that people would see you had read it but don't have to write a comment. On another forum there is one lady who feels she has to answer every single comment!!

I am using the old format now, but wonder for how long it will be available.

That was one of the two things I didn't like about the new format. Also, I preferred the threads that I viewed being highlighted in red.

 

Although I did not make any change, I am now back in the old format and that is fine with me.

[Summergee]

I like having threads I have been following highlighted.

[Ray66]

I just visited the British Isles forum and the Roll Calls forum and they have gone to the new style board again. So I guess this one will too again shortly.

 

As people have suggested, I clicked on my user name, selected Control Panel and then Edit Options, scrolled right down to the bottom of the page to where it says Forum Skin but when I put my mouse over the down arrow, it showed a circle with a line through which means I couldn't change the style.

 

Forum Skin

 

There is more than one skin in which you can view the forums. If you would like to switch to a different skin, select it from this list.

 

Please note that some forums here may override your skin choice temporarily.
