Hey, so I just joined Team GX and they use the latest IPB forum software. It looks great, runs smoothly, and I love the new Javascript/Ajax addition. :D What do you think of it?


Not sure if this should be in Designers' Cafe or Webmasters Corner so idk, move where necessary. :P

You're in the right place. :)

Gio showed me that earlier and it looks pretty cool. It's like what CB has only fancier, right? I don't know much about forums...

i duno, honestly i'm glad we don't have it. i don't like how it feels but maybe it's just cause i'm biased against rounded corners and dislike reading text on dark backgrounds.

I don't mind the design of it, it's just too wide. I hate when pages span across my entire screen.

I hope Jusun doesn't decide to switch to it either, but why do I think that's going to be his next big update? Did he mention it or something? I don't know, the forum design is okay as it is.

I thought I saw a post that Rebs made where she said that Jusun texted her about updating the forums software. Again, you can always modify the width. :/

That has nothing to do with the software. It's user styles.

Yeah, you know that you can change the style, right? CB itself is heavily modified; this isn't the default look of IPB.
