Ah don't sweat it. It's even taking me some time!

There is quite a bit of new functionality, but we have done are best to keep it looking similar to before.

Looks good. It is a lot easier to read. Really clean and fresh looking.

I hate to be the first one with a negative comment, but what's with the time information? I for one would rather see the times posted on the main page, as they were in the past, rather than the *minutes ago. If I leave the house at 9AM, and get back at 3 PM, I can just go look at posts starting after 9AM rather than computing when I left and how long ago it was.

Anyone else have any comments on this?

Edit-just noticed a good feature. When you reply to a post and use the back button you return to the place you were at instead of starting at the top again. I like this.

Hey....the combo blue/quartz interior is not an option with the white exterior. Shouldn't the new forum's color scheme reflect the TL's?

Looks nice but what about an improved search system?

Did a search for "Commercials" and came back with nothing. So I had to manually find this thread -> http://www.acura-tl.com/forums/showt...573#post734573 instead.

That sucks! How are you supposed to flame the newbies for not using the search when it doesn't even work right?

Read the announcement on top (or read the moderator's post in THIS thread) and you'll find the search function needs to be rebuilt.

The search feature works, but only for new threads. As said above, the index has to be rebuilt.

By the way, the "go to first new post" arrow doesn't seem to be working all the time.

I really don't remember if this is the old feature in the past, but this new software could automatically add my replied thread into my subscription lists. Great...

If this old feature was just carried over, I... :smackhead

I also want to thank the admins for all their work, but I don't particularly like the new look. Everything is sooo..... big. The forums require a lot more scrolling and screen space than they used to.

Looks clean.

I couldn't locate my avatar. Also, how can I change the avatar to my own picture?

Looks good.
