New look over at Avsim

I like it. They really needed to change from their old design. It looked like it was from the 90's. :wavey:
 
Hopefully it will grow on me. I don't know why the change was made, other than for it's own sake. Change just for the sake of change has never made much sense to me. If it isn't broken, don't try to fix it. PTTP. LA
 
Is it just me or is there no area where you can lodge news ? I have some Orbx news coming soon and I would like to lodge it but I will be buggered if I can find where to do it ?
 
Personally, I think its too hard to read.

Try a search. You can't tell where one entry ends and another begins. Besides, there was/is nothing wrong with the 1990's.

This one "tastes" like the internet version of the "new" Coke!
:icon_lol:

Cannot log in. Bah humbug. Why do people have to change stuff? Change for changes sake imho. They did a similar thing to the BBC news webpage and the result was actually less news for the sake of flashy pages. Put me off going there very often.
 
Won't judge upon their new looks, as it's always a matter of taste...
I liked their simple and handy "classic 90's" design, but won't refuse getting used to the new one!

Bad thing is that logging in currently doesn't work for me:
Although I did the registration procedure "by the book" and received their confirmation mail, activating my new account leads to this message:
An Error Occurred
Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.

Well, guys:
I'm not "unsure how to use a feature", to me it seems as if they still have to get used to their new features... :isadizzy:

I'll be patient and keep trying!

Cheers,
Markus.
 
Good news:
I finally managed to get activated manually (still dunno why the "linked activation" didn't work for me...).

First library upload (just another German Phantom) is already proceeded. Uploading procedure basically is the same, with one big advantage over the former one:
Multiple screenshots now get uploaded at once! Very nice feature.
And there's no need for a 150pix thumbnail image any more: Just choose one of your screenies as "primary" to get shown as preview.

Cheers,
Markus.

That is great to hear; the old 150 png thing was a pain.
 
Just checked it all out. Looks like a great start to me. The file library is okay as well although not quite as feature rich; still a nice start. Give them time; they will get there. :applause:
