I like the new deep red and black. I getting use to the new post format.
But all and all it looks good.

Thanks

could it be made mandatory to fill out "location" in the profile ? If not for all already subscribed then at least for all new subscribers. That would help a lot.
And could the "how to post pics" thread be linked in the boards FAQs under "posting issues" ? I guess lots of guys search there first.
Also there was a description once about adding avatars. Someone had written something about that long time ago.
No hurry, I`m just writing down things I notice.

the FAQ would be nice to rewrite 100%, whatever is in there is just default from the vendor
I believe location is already mandatory, but I can doublecheck

no it`s not. Just model and year are mandatory.
I have to say the longer I`m here the more I like the background, Looks a bit like carbon fibre :)

one more question. Before the forum mod I got a note about new pms received, now I don`t anymore. Was this reset ?
I`ll need to check. This is a monologue btw :)

edit: Notify me on new private messages is set to YES, but at least for me that doesn`t work anymore.

since the webserver is not reverse-lookup to ducatipaso.org yet, your emails are probably being trapped by your ISP/mail client as spam

switched the header to white, added the logo you can click on it to go to the home page.
increased the contrast on the forum unread icons... need to do to others still.

I like the new graphics, all new looks good.

BUT,
the large letters make me feel lika a 70+ senior citizen w eye problems, I´m not there yet (most of us aren`t :thumbup: ?).

Would a inbetween solution between this & normal size letters be OK? :thumbup:

I wonder if that has to do with your browser. On mine the font is not big.
Is that only with the forum or also with other pages ?

Little confused, as this site have now very similar letter size what we have used many years? Fits well to me just now... and Gert, You have to remember that one day You are also as old as i am and many guys here... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Btw, now these sites are easy to read if thinking colours and size of letters, so please, dont make any big movements now, Mike. :thumbup:
