Hello PHers and welcome to your new look forums!

[unrepentant]

This is horrible! On my iPhone it looks like something from the 1990's. Please reconsider.

[Chebble]

I've been on GTI for ages. Not perfect by any stretch, but it's usuable enough on my phone.

I rarely browse on a laptop or tablet so I can't pass comment on those, so I'll ask this: are the desktop issues serious enough to warrant all this hysteria? I understand that the site needs traffic to generate income, so our opinion should count (although admittedly it rarely does seem to count) but the way some people are going on you'd think that they'd announced that the world is going to end tomorrow!

There's a reason why I never went with the GTI skin.

It's utter st.

Thanks PH.

Yes but they don't care.

That's a shame

I thought I was logged out when I was logged in - fking horrible and very obviously doesn't blend in with my other active windows....

Thank you PH for the forced change but more importantly thank-you for allowing me to change it back to what it was before - please don't do it again!!

[Simpo Two]

It looks much the same as before to me but with extra blue lines. I'm also typing in Arial now not Courier.

Overall it's tipped from 'normal as it has been for 15 years' to 'a bit ugly'.

As above I thought I was logged out too. Can I put it back?

Looks st. If we're getting one skin forced upon us can't we at least have a vote to decide?

[Debaser]

Looks pretty crap with oddly large fonts everywhere. If we have to have GTI, can you at least make it look exactly like Classic?

The ability to switch will be removed according to the first post... Whilst you can switch back now temporarily, eventually we'll all be moved over to it.

I bet the clever clog who designed this has no clue what a paragraph is either. Totally unreadable.

" If there are any changes you'd like to see made to GTI, pop a comment or suggestion into this thread and we'll get it sorted as soon as possible,"

Yeah, make it look like the old ones.

just when you think it cant get any worse

Sorry, I am an old git, who has been on here for 12 years.

Does the 'skin' issue affect me whilst I use PH on my lap[top ?

I haven't noticed any changes whilst using the system so is it only 'restricted' to smartphones (which I'm too blind to see a blummin' huge PH page on) ?

Thanks for any facts/pointers

A very happy (so far) User (y)

You are like me - probably using GTI on your desktop which actually works on my iPhone too. Happy days for old fogies

Right, you'll have to bear with me here - is this the old skin or the new one?

[Pope]

I still want the Porsche section changed back into one........

[thepeoplespal]

Gti was introduced to make it as close to the old mobile version of pistonheads. We users of mobile complained very hard when it was about to be removed, I.e. Classic sucked on a mobile. Google is insisting on more mobile friendly sites so I guess having given PH flack they have to respond and to hell with consequences.

This is probably on a par with "the pie and piston" and all its sub forums being created. Damned for both progressing slowly and too fast. Some of us will not get over it and move elsewhere, others won't even notice.

[kambites]

It's a bit odd that the font and line-spacing on the main "forum index" page is different than that on the individual forums? The former is fine, the latter is dense enough on my browser to be hard to read.

New skin. Looks similar enough but the formatting - especially forum view as per above - is horrible.

GTI is st on my phone. Strangely, it looks the same on my laptop on Firefox.

What did all the other skins look like?

This 'new' one looks like I haven't logged in, ie ste. It is like browsing PH over 10 years ago.

[VGTICE]

"What did I do to my browser? PH looks like a mess...". It turns out idindunuffin.
