Some Comments
I'm sorry to sound ungrateful, Ruy, but....
IMHO the major strengths of the old TOCH were its simplicity and the speed with wiich it could be scanned. These are gone. This was the only board that I looked at regularly, every time I checked my mail. I can no longer do this -- it simply takes more mouse clicks and waiting around than I have the patience for. I'll now split my time among Eger's and some of the other WW II aviation boards.
Specific comments:
1. Sometimes the messages scroll off the right edge of the screen.
2. The "smiley faces" are simply childish. Who needs them? How are they supposed to improve communication?
3. The other icons look like misshapen bells. I have no idea what they mean or when they are used.
4. The yellow-on-red banner colors are hard to read. As someone said, what's wrong with Luftwaffe blue?
5. What's the objective of restricting some sections to "registered" users while leaving others open to all? I see no reason to have more than three sections: Housekeeping, Allies, and Luftwaffe.
All the best,
Don
