    Me too, but I'm not liking this new layout.

    For those not used to the new layout, down the bottom left you can click on the PropertyChat theme link and set it to wide format or a different colour.

    One main feature is the mobile device optimisation which the old forum did not have.

    The colour scheme is still being developed - I've stuck with a "safe" blue for now, but it does make it look like a lot of other sites out there.

    This is new software - with a heap of new features and capabilities - you'll get used to the layout ... things generally work the same as they did on Somersoft.

    I'll be posting some "have you seen?" tutorials highlighting things that are new or different - when I get a chance!

    I think after we use the forum for say a week we will all get used to the new format.

    Looking good Sim.

    My avatar looks terrible. I don't know where the original picture came from & just copied off of SS. Anyone know how to fix it?

    Hey, Sim, can you upload a signature on this? I looked, but couldn't find anything.

    Yeah, I haven't had a chance to go through all those user profile fields - will probably get rid of those three to start with!

    Maybe, but I like the existing one. I feel 'at home' with it.

    On the old forum, there was 'user ip' where you could go to see posts that you were subscribed to. Does this have that capability?

    I like it. Seems to be a bit of scrolling to see all the sub forums now though.

    And all these people seem to be wanting to sell me off the plan properties ....:eek:;)

    I see that you allow advertising by members on here, which I guess is fair enough as it does take money an a lot of time to run forums. But I was wondering whether you will allow users to post their opinions on the advertisements (positive and negative)? I sure hope so.

    Maybe there should be a Q&A thread for the time being. I've already had a couple of questions and it seems other members are the same.
