Did you by chance do something? No my tapatalk app won't let me on the forum at all. Says"network error try again later has ever since I deleted and reinstalled the app earlier today. ?

I was testing something and it didn't work. I know the reason for the images not working, but needed to get a hold of support as for some reason I couldn't change a setting in my tapatalk account so that the images would work. So now its on Tapatalk to fix the image issue, but I didn't fix it so you can still see the forum on tapatalk.

I don't post often but, I like the change. It might be because I hadn't spent much time with the old system but, it does seem to look better aesthetically and it's just as easy as any other forum I've been on to browse, post and search.

It seems that most of you are liking it as I haven't heard anything negative about it. I still want to post this up as I am curious to see what you all think. Are you missing the older vb version? This one to hard to figure out? Let me know.
I am still unable to upload photos directly from my phone. Did something in regard to that change with the redesign? All of the photos in my albums came directly from my phone. I was able to insert some photos from my albums directly into a reply recently but I can't add any new media.

It seems like there is more fluff on each page with fewer topics showing per page load when in a forum. Is that the case or am I imagining it?

Also, I tried to edit a recent thread of mine.....Edit no longer available?

Edit is available but there IS a time limit. How long ago was the post posted that you're now trying to edit?

September.

I also noticed one more thing I'm not nuts about. When I received the notification in my email that you had replied, it did not show me your actual reply in the email. Can that be put back how it was before?

Yeah, I've noticed that too. That'd be a question for @LWM and @Shaggy

Also @mattt ....the time limit for editing is 20 days. If you need a post edited that is older than that then just ask a staff member to change it for you and we will unless there's some extenuating circumstance where we don't think that'd be wise.
