t, but GTI is the most sGetragdogleg said:
I like the simplicity of PH, its one of the reasons I visit it. the classic skin is the one I have had since I joined so I am used to it.
I think the PH techs missed a trick by not polling everyone before this happened.

People inventing change for change sake.....to justify their existence !?!?
Thank god they did give users the ability to choose a style that is easy to read...ie the old original that has served well enough for ages !
I have just reset mine....had to visit website forum to find out how though !

Yea but they're going to change over to the GTI skin in April with no other options. People inventing change for change sake.....to justify their existence !?!?

Well if people can't read it, then they probably won't use it...bye bye PH !Less people using the forums equals less visits to PH equals less advertising revenue in the long run....their choice....or perhaps they might listen to their users on this occasion.
I voted for classic as that's what I've been using since the day I joined.
I've tried the GTI format before and it's awful.
Why GTI as the only possible skin and not Classic, which seems far more functional?
I wonder whether it's about cramming even more Google AdChoice advertising in, as having turned adblocker off it would appear that on GTI there is an advert being loaded along the top of the forum, then another one between the "my profile" and "start new topic" tabs, plus the curtain advert(s) along the right hand side half way down between posts and yet another advert (or two) running along the bottom of the page too.
Funny how nearly all of the ads are also ones that heavily drain memory / resources when viewed in the web browser too

Quite like GTI in thread view but when you're looking at one of the forum pages (before going into a thread) it looks incredibly cluttered. Also, when typing this reply I notice that there's no padding between the edges of the box and the text that I'm typing. Reminds me of the internet before design became part of the equation.

Did you ever try Big Blue? An improvement at least aesthetically over Classic.I've tried the GTI format before and it's awful.

No not really an improvement - it has a big bold blue bar across the top as a design feature.Much prefer the subtlety of classic.
They could move some of the bits around on Classic if they need to save some space

GTI is pants, can we have classic back please
/rant/
Yes - you can change it back yourself - instructions earlier in this thread/rant/
However in April you lose that option
first brexit, then Orange discontinued my email address, and one of my other forums died this week,
ENOUGH!!!!!!
