NordicShelby Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Thanks NordicShelby! I found it now. Your welcome. Robert and Sharon its not as bad as some think its just going to take a bit to warm up to. And after coming back the second time tonight I kind of like the Christmas theme I think its good to get in the Christmas spirit. We had our first blizzard yesterday into today so its now officially the start of winter here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I think the holiday theme is, well, just a little "goofy", but it is kind of cool and fun and, well, festive, and I know it won't be here forever. But there are some things that aren't working right. Some peoples photos in the signature area extend way beyond the edge of the browser window, instead of being scaled to fit the column/frame.

rnoggle Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I don't mind the Chistmasy theme so much. It is the holidays after all. I'm just having a bit of a hard time figure out how to do the things I used to do on the old board. I'm a slow learner anyway, So it'll just take me a little time.

chuckstang Posted December 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 No one is going to ban you for expressing your opinions in a proper manner, which you did Chuck. Yesterday's forum about the site changes was corrupted which caused the site technical problems and that is why that forum was taken down. As far as any technical issues you are having with typing, viewing, etc, Robert posted a forum about some issues with IE and Vista and TS 3.0. Look for that forum and post your technicial issues there. Ya I hate to sound so harsh! I like the holiday look just wish it worked better I must say at home now though with my personal computer it is better than at work, but normally works fine either way. This just goes to show you how important this site is to us all!!! I know I find it both entertaining and informational like everyone else Im sure. The colors were coming across as much darker on my dam work computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckstang Posted December 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Thanks to all that posted about how to resolve technical issues, I had no idea even existed!

stpracer43 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I'm okay with the Christmas theme, but not the entire skin... might have been better on a smaller portion of the page. Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrafan Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Ho, Ho, Ho, I kinda like it. Good job folks. It will take some time to learn about the new features, and figure out some of the old ones, but hey, I commend the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XLR8 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 One question. Why? If something works and no one is complaining why change it so drastically? Making enhancements and small improvments is fine, just not so much all at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewheelman Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Geez, I like it, it's festive, I have no problems with it loading or working. Kudo's to the software mechanics that tuned it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiaCobra Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 As soon as I logged on and saw the red, white, and green theme,I thought...somewhere, there was a woman involved with this that pushed for it. I Lol'd !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Very nice job ladies, very nice. But, this forum is mostly comprised of testosterone. Let's not forget who the forum members are. Keep it simple - usually works for most of us. I concur with the others here and would like to see a less distracting board.

gth0007 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 No one at Team Shelby seems to answer the question, "why was the site changed ?" The "techy" crowd has taken over and can't seem to keep their fingers off something that is working. The NEW and IMPROVED site is slow, slow, and did I say slow, not to mention it looks like a 3 year old's idea of a Christmas card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gth0007 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 You and Robert are doing great, Sharon. People just gotta whine about change. Change is good... Why is "change good" when there is no stated reason for the change? Team Shelby members should be viewed as customers, and as such "gotta whine" is a way of saying, I want to stay your customer so why are you jerking me around with this drastic change. Maybe if there was some effort on Team Shelby's part to communicate then you wouldn't have so many "gotta whine" members out there. I say again WHY THE CHANGE IN THE SITE??

The NEW and IMPROVED site is slow, slow, and did I say slow, not to mention it looks like a 3 year old's idea of a Christmas card. Change always comes, The new 3.0 is the upgraded with new and improved features. The screen change is temporary and we have been telling everyone for months that we where upgrading to 3.0 even had a test site up for months so that everyone had a chance to play with the site and learn the new features. Once the skin changes everything else will remain the same. If you are having any specific tec issues please e-mail RobertL@shelbyautos.com so that he can figure out what is wrong.

But there is always a learning curve and getting use to new features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekheavy Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I actually like the site navigation, just the wall paper is a little anoying right now. I agree. I like the navigation aspect too, but with all this background color and moving graphics, it really slows everything down and if you're using a computer with limited video memory, it's horrendous.

bandit67 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Wow! This is horrible. I can sort of understand the Christmas theme, but this is ridiculous. Looks horrible. So what is it going to look like when the holiday theme goes away? I thought the web address had been taken over by another site due to a glitch when I first logged in. I guess all I can say is YUK!

rdragoo Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 One question. Why? If something works and no one is complaining why change it so drastically? Making enhancements and small improvments is fine, just not so much all at once. I'll tell you why. Someone thought they would do a massive Christmas/Holiday makeover to the site to commorate the season. A few tastefull holiday additions would have been ok. This looks like a third grader got turned loose with some paint program. It's juvenile, overdone, and very irritating to look at. I'm not a scrooge, but this is horribly overdone.

NordicShelby Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Hey Robert, Enable the feedback rating on each post. I noticed a green plus sign and a red minus sign at the bottom of each post and there is also a big ZERO next to the plus and minus sign. When are you going to enable this feature and also what is the reputation that you see when you click on a persons profile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NICK82 Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 I get pissed off everytime I log in here now, this candyland amateur looking site combined with that F-150 "Supersnake" up in the corner has me fuming. Personally i'm not pouring another dime into Shelby until both of these trashy ideas are scrapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
