No report button on GTI or the ability to delete a topic from "my topics".

I've been using GTI but had to go back to classic in order to do the above.

What the hell is a skin??? And a GTI one for goodness sake.
I just log on and read. Don't like the mobile version - if that's what this is all about - but hey I'm just a simple chap.

I've been using GTI for ever and I have both those functions you mention!

Don't know if this will come out right. Is this the font that others are seeing on the topic lists ?
That's what i see, what a fk up.
You appear to be viewing it on a phone or tablet. Try going to the main PH homepage and going to the bottom of the page and clicking on "Change to the mobile version"

There are ways of doing things when you're running a site on a commercial basis.

Yet again a way has been found that demonstrates how not to do it.

It looks awful. If you want to unify the site design you do trials and tests and get feedback and all those useful little things, not just make an abrupt change to something that doesn't actually work.

1/10 - sub the work to someone else!

I agree with all you have said, except how you reckon they deserve as much as 1/10????

The correct score should be 0/10 - SEE ME!!! ( in red ink of course! )

Posts appear OK for me.

Font size is slightly larger

My biggest bugbear is the quote boxes max it a lot harder to, at a glance, tell who has posted what.
I would have preferred the old skin back to be honest.

Couldn't give two hoots about the skins. I'm more interested in the move to https, something being discussed on here about 5 years ago. I will await with baited breath.

Finally no more passing all my login details in a clear unencrypted manner. Finally.

Looks pretty much the same to me, except for a change of typeface, and the tacky speech bubbles.

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 wink

A very happy (so far) User (y)

I'll be as constructive as I can:

Copy Big Blue code, make it work with HTTPS, call it GTI Clubsport or something to give the illusion of progress, call it a day.

Seems to me that making a forum of all places harder to read and navigate isn't really progress nor particularly clever. What on earth were you thinking?
