I voted "Very Good". I think it looks very nice, and it's very easy to find my way around. the only reason I didn't rate it higher is that it's still very new to me and I haven't had a chance to really explore it.

I vote "very good".

It works better under firefox, has time zones, bigger avatars and is easy to use.
However it lacks icons for the different sections, and no offence to the one who did it but I don't really like the graphics (excepted for the smileys :D ).

I'll consider those are minor points so it deserves a "very good" rating.

This looks and feels fantastic. My only problem is that I didn't realise everyone was dropping the [ch] tag and now I can't seem to get rid of it...

Good. some improvements have been made, and I have no doubt that given a bit more time to "break it in", this forum will make an excellent replacement.

It will take some time to get used to the new format, but it's the people that make the forum, and those haven't changed. Not having all the ads is an instant improvement, btw.

Vote good
Gonna have to get used to the new color scheme, it's a bit bright for my tastes. I'm also not gonna miss the all the ads.

vote waiting for better amends

The new look is overall beautiful, but several things could be added and done.

I voted only "good", because I never had any problems with the old board.
Somehow it felt even faster. Maybe you should make the Topic review window in the reply screen optional...

voted 'Very good -- a huge step forward'
It's all very good - the interface is smoother and better, but I'd really like CH and RT to have (nearly) the same look, if possible.
The rest is just great. So good to get rid of those slowing flashes and ForumPlanet bugs.

Voted 'Good'

1. I was kinda attached to the dark background / straightforward text boxes of the old forum. Made things pretty clear to read.
I guess I just need to get used to the new style.
2. the active topics function was all I ever used (with 1 or 2 exceptions). With it gone, I'm feeling lost 8|

For the rest, everything seems great. I especially like the new typing tool. Very user friendly!
