  • To be blunt, this "upgrade" sucks. Sucks badly.   Why are you "fixing" something that wasn't broken?

  • Totally agree with above posters. It looks kind of shy. Should be bold and proud. Seems like change for the sake of change just happened.

    Not terrible, except for maybe the logo.  I think you'll want to darken some of the colors though, both in the banners and the text. Plus the text is too fine, if that's the word. It needs to be a bit

let's have a poll:smile:

If we have a POLL please conduct it in the old theme as the new theme would make it invisible to read or use.  I am having to "zoom in" to read the content now.  It is cr*p.

I can only hope that the admin hears you.

Oh dear, another geek change gone wrong.  Why change what was perfectly okay before? . 

 

You must remember that TVF is free to us. The forum generates it's money from advertising.

 

The washed out font and purple theme make the surrounding advertising stand out much more.

 

You might not like it but the advertisers will love it.

I like it, on top of that it is a lot faster.

 

Happy chappie here.

 

PS: those people saying 'why change something when it is working fine', please remember all the complaints about e.g. the forum being too slow.

The advertisers will not love it if the audience decreases. I have been witness to other good platforms that have done similar. When discussing it, some said, "I just don't open it anymore."

What people say and what people do are 2 different things. We'll all moan and groan but still come here for our daily fix.

 

I would love to say, "Let's start a class action and boycott the website" But it just ain't gonna happen.

GOD I HATE THIS FONT.

 

How can you start a topic on motorcycles and bar girls when you feel like you are in a woman's day spa?  

 

The court finds you guilty of trying to fix something that was not broken.

 

Take them out back and execute them.

 

My god have mercy on your soul.

 

Next case.

Looks more like a scared ghost with a bad haircut.

I have now had to go back & change my Preferences on my Twilight App from Google play... at least now I have restored some control over the K temperature colour on my phone ☺ 

1st change though was to make Twilight active 24/7.

this is a REALLY BAD EPISODE of The Twilight Zone not Twilight App.:cheesy: 

 

and why is there now a box around the emoji? is that a Safe Place for the PC Purple Durian People?

Just logged in on my PC.... Thought I was having a seizure !!!

 

The contrast between thread title and thread info, which is on the line directly below, really makes me dizzy ??

 

Please email when you have sorted this <deleted> out, as I can't stay logged into this....

 

 

There is a frickin' PURPLE DURIAN in my web browser tab. <deleted>? Who goes to a website with a PURPLE DURIAN logo?

It's to stop them escaping and running riot. Doesn't bear thinking about....

Good idea. I am rebelling against the PC Safe Place Purple Durian People.    

 

It has been like 45 minutes since I started bitching. Have they changed it back yet? I don't want to look.

Oh well, all good things have to come to a end. I spend too much time on Thai Visa anyway. I really can't find it in me to look at the rest of the forum.

Looks like it was engineered by a  a Thai Department of Transportation highway pothole "repairman"!

Top notch work on the new look. I usually hate "new looks" but this one works. Nice to see the search function straightened out as well.

I really don't understand why we can't have the opportunity to comment on this announcement:

 

"It has been some journey for Thaivisa from when it was first launched over 15 years ago now – and in all that time the logo and website has stayed the same.

 

Change is inevitable in life and now was the right time for the Thaivisa website and logo to be updated in order to remain fit for purpose as we move forward in this new digital era in media. This certainly was not a change for change sake.

 

The new rebrand is aligned to a modern digital media and is more fit for purpose as we take Thaivisa forward over the next decade, where we must appeal and connect with our emerging new younger user to our platforms.  We must stay relevant and continue to lead in the market we operate.

 

Our commitment to all of our consumers is still to work tirelessly in delivering the same great content and service for you every single day of the week. Which includes over 100 news stories each day from Thailand and the rest of the world and our twice-daily eNewsletters.

 

We thank all our users to Thaivisa and looking forward in continuing to serve you as we move into the future together."

So there you have it, "Oldies out youngsters in".

 

Good luck with that as youngsters live on Facebook and Twitter.
