I’m not worried, we’ve been told (by a knowlegable person) that there was testing of the the shop and website by select groups and everything was OK.
I read it in the forums so it must be true and we couldn’t possibly be having problems.
“Hello, this is your pilot, those moutain tops you see above us are not an issue. My altimiter says we are above their level. Although I have to admit those trees up ahead look pretty big.” 8-o

In all sincerity, I hope that the teams’ take away is that this conversion was COMPLETE disaster. All of this should have been handled in a sandbox, until at least the major bugs were ironed out. Just imagine for a moment if something like a large bank site proceeded with a site conversion the way DAZ has. Ok, second’s up. See what I mean. To many of your loyal fans/customers this has been about as disruptive as a death in the family.
I look forward to the problems being ironed out and really hope that NEXT time, your team remembers these hard lessons.
I’m pulling for DAZ all the way, but I don’t think putting a makeup on a dog is a good idea.
They are working on making it more like the old forum.
Are we going to have a section under our names for location? or does everyone have to go to our profiles to read that?
We haven’t been told exactly what they are working on.
Does anyone at DAZ talk to anyone else?
They don’t seem to like talking to their customers, and it appears that they don’t even talk to their web site admins.
As you can see, my sig is my only identification at this point…
What I want to know is will we be able to choose a darker skin? As an illustrator, a blank white color needs to be filled with something, or it looks unfinished to me! Also the glare is too tiring, otherwise, I’m really glad that I don’t have to manually input a BBC code for color/Italics/Bold/size anymore!
The only flaw is the formatting is screwy in that you have to select each line/paragraph rather than simply highlighting the entire text in order for it to work for the entire post…Which is very odd, as I’ve never seen that…Ever..
Apart from other things in the new forum, which disapointed me, I’m not very happy how the new forum handles pictures. All pictures are at the end of a post. That’s i.m.o. not a good idea.
Sometimes it makes more sense to have a break with text between the different pictures. Some users like to tell us stories. Others explain us in a tutorial step by step how something works. In that cases it makes sense that you can change the position of a picture.
I don’t also like that I can’t quote pictures. How should I comment on a post with a beautiful picture, when between my comment and the posted picture are 5 pages with more or less relatated comments or other pictures from different users. ESPECIALLY IN CHALLENGES you can’t comment on user’s entries without quoting the releated picture. For that reason i think, that challenges are currently not makes a sense.
PS: Has anybody else noticed, that this board don’t allow breaks in the text. I’ve set the breaks between the lines in this text manually with

Ahhh, that’s why I have to highlight each paragraph in order to B-code the entire post! That’s the most archaic thing I ever encountered while using a forum, it’s like having to manually type in a BBC code every time in order to….Oh, wait… (J/K)

I believe if you hit the return key (enter) 3 times it will create a break.
