The NEW CHUD MB...

post #1 of 71
Thread Starter 
Folks are starting to dip their toe in as we start to clean it up, make changes, and whatnot. They will post their findings (vaguely) here if there's anything to tease.

ETA for the new site. SOON.

Stop joking. I've been coming to this place since before FOTR. Seeing a major change will be scary. I'm an old man, if they change things too much I'll get lost.

I cannot wait, bring it on Big Man!

Nick -- will the SEX forum remain as the only section of the Old MB ported over to the new design? I like the 3-D feature on images, but think discussion will be limited to gutterals.

No, and all post counts and PM and login info carries over.

You have a gaping asshole.

Wiki wiki wiki!

Pretty slick!

Lots of new fiddly bits.

OH MY GOD SEARCH! It's...sob...it's so good to have you back!

Nice layout, too.

ETA: Also, never knew that about JFK. Totally fascinating.

I'm extremely pleased with it. Feels like it was actually designed from scratch with the message board experience in mind.

Visually there's much less of an adjustment than I expected even before a polish. There's a bit of a shock/comfort curve but I think once the transition happens, few will be looking back.

I agree with all of this. It's different, but good different. Once we settle in it's gonna be cozy. Feels like CHUD too, if that makes any sense.

Cool spoiler formating feature, among many other things.
post #19 of 71
It really feels almost like a hybrid of the oooooooold Chud boards and the current, with some nifty modern touches. I dig.

See how the buttons are blacked out? They only reappear when you mouse over them. Is this fixed?
post #21 of 71
The black background, on this MB and the new one, makes it easier to fake working, so it's appreciated. Heh.
post #22 of 71
I wanna see!!!

Long gone, Tzu.

Annoying, but important question, will all current MB content be carried over and preserved intact?

And I'm not just worried about The B Action Thread. There's a wealth of classic discussion here that it would be a real shame to lose.

Or am I the only one who sometimes peruses old threads for entertainment with his morning coffee?

Seems great. Starting to fuck around with it. Much sharper.

All is retained.

I like the I like.
post #29 of 71
That's fantastic, Nick!

Are only a few moderators and site runners getting an early look at this? When will the rest of us be able to take a look?

WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF US!?
post #30 of 71
In my 10+ years on CHUD I've survived numerous board changes. This will not break me. Let's do this!

We have to wait out here in the rain, gazing into the new MB from across the street. Everyone looks like they're having so much fun in there...
post #32 of 71
The new spoiler alert system is great.
post #33 of 71
Yeah, came to post the same thing.
post #34 of 71
The "Favorite YouTubes of the Moment" thread is going to get a whole lot better.

Yes, we're learning all about each others assholes.

Oooooh video embed finally?
post #37 of 71
Oh yes.

Ditto on the spoiler text. If bees had knees, that would be them.

Definitely sounds exciting...

Princess Kate will be able to add all sorts of bells and whistles to her Ultimate Blog Party.

In case anybody was wondering, it takes 39 posts.

I like it -- works with my user text.

ETA - Also, I almost went with "licks" instead of "posts" anyway.

Are you still looking for people to test this sucker?

Excellent. This pretty much puts my fears to rest when it comes to this change over. Can't wait to see what CHUD has in store for us

Oh, neat! I'm not looking to gussy it up too much, it just would be nice if the new board fixed some of the media integration issues that currently exist. For example, four images per post is a fairly reasonable limit, the problem though is that the board counts smilies and links as "images" which often ends up necessitating a separate post just to include the images I wanted to share in the first place

Hrm?
post #46 of 71
I don't think it spoils anything to say that avatars and sigs safely transferred over as well.
post #47 of 71
Avatars (so far) are a little larger though.

Will this lead to pixelation with our existing avatars (since I think currently they're 75 by 75 pixels?)
post #49 of 71
It's cool. I think you guys will like the design. Not sure if the Jeff Foxworthy: You Might Be a Chewer If..., the Tribute to Carrot Top and the Tyler Perry's Madea ______ sections will be big hits though...
post #50 of 71
I hear the Riddler will be the villain in the new CHUD messageboard, can you confirm or deny?
