The issue you're reporting with the gallery is not related to this change. This change was made yesterday morning. You reported your issue with the gallery prior to that change. As I replied to you, I was able to upload an image to your gallery. As I stated in my reply, in order to further assist, we need more information. Since your issue is not related to this issue, let's not mix the issue into this thread.

Thanks.

Now to navigate between sections I have to use the Forums drop down menu in the upper LH corner to switch. It's clumsy and cumbersome and definitely NOT an improvement.

Can these links be put back where they were???

Dave
Dave, I'll check on those links.

Thanks.

There is no button. You have to manually enter in the size. Such as [size=3]Size 3[/size]

Wow the smiles thing is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Along with many other things.

You want to put in a smiley you now have to hit the smile symbol in the upper bar, That in turn brings up a popup page that covers what you are now working on. Find the item you want hit it and the smile page disperses.

Very cumbersome, not needed. ( I hit the bold symbol to do the words to my left, and now its showing bold as I type this sentence.)

Why is junk like this done.?Just because you can is not a good answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The old way was fine, how about accepting the fact you people goofed up,swallow your pride and bring it back to the way it was! I doubt I'm the only one here that feels that way!.

J T,

I see that now we have the ability to edit and choose links to ANY of the sub-forums that we frequent anywhere within CF....AWESOME! That is definitely a monumental improvement over the old format.

THANK YOU for addressing this so quickly!

Regards,

Dave

Yes it does. You copy paste what you seen in my post. If you grab it from a reply/quote, it won't work. That's because one parses the code and the other doesn't. You can't copy something if you can't see the source before it is parsed.

Put the tree listing back under the last post. Why does this get removed with almost every major change?
Does anyone recall any change EVER being reversed regardless of how awful it was? Me either.

No, but they did put fixes back in to quell the masses.
