I like it, the update was long overdue

Also thanks for doing it, I know it's done by volunteers

Like many of the things we use everyday, there is a lot hidden behind the scenes to make it work. We were stuck in what you might consider Windows 95. Now I now that some of you weren't even born then but, for some of us, the thought of trying to run Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, etc. on a Windows 95 operating system is laughable. That's what the TDF upgrade is about. Getting that underlying system up to the 21st century standards.
Hopefully we will adapt, look back at the "old" TDF and wonder how we ever got by. LOL

I really like this new layout, the design is more modern. Well done

Well seen also for the notification

I chose to put the forum in black, it's classy!

Granted I'm the type of person who doesn't like changes in general but I'm definitely finding this new format difficult to read for some reason. Maybe it's just me, but it bothers my eyes and I feel like I will get a headache if stay on too long.
I really hate to say that as I know the staff put a lot of work into this upgrade and I'm sure it will make some things better for certain users.
But for me it will certainly take a bit of getting used to. I just hope that I CAN get used to it.

It's not just you! Something in the color/brightness/font/layout is just fucking hard to read. It makes my eyes hurt, gives me a headache.
This is not a pretty site, nor does it need to be. It is a communications tool. And if I can't read the fuckin thing, it's no good at communication.

Hate it. Hands down.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Has anyone noticed that we can now upload multiple images at once with the attachment tool?
That's a big improvement over before, thanks for that.
If I hadn't already pressed yes, I would do it again now.

I'm late to vote nay, the font is more difficult to read. Stuff moved to the right side for no reason makes me scan all over the screen and it's just annoying. This feels like change for the sake of change, not to fix something broken. I really don't want to read this mess
