March 24, 201511 yr Thanks. What's the red? I think it's confusing with the last post if I'm the one who made the last one. I kind of relied on the previous way to see if someone responded to my post. If I no longer saw Oldog75 as the last, I know to just click on the last post icon to see the response. Kind of was handy when reading and responding to multiple threads, at least for me. For those of you having trouble getting to the first unread post, at the top of each page of a thread, right above the first post on that page, are the words "View First Unread" click there to go to the last unread post. It is a little hard on the eyes, but it's easy enough to dim my phone. I also like the top button. Only real negative I have right now is I can't figure out if there is a way to go to the last page of a thread. I've had to scroll through from start to finish on every thread. That's a pain when there are 15 pages of posts. I haven't found a way to skip ahead to the last page yet, but you can go to the first post you have not read pretty easily. http://bluegrasspreps.com/forum-list/ This is what i see...only 3 forum buttons at the top.
March 24, 201511 yr Interesting that you can not pinch and blow up the font on an iPhone. I'm Old so sometime I need a little help. I need a full pardon for any typos on my posts from the phone.
March 24, 201511 yr So far, its a lot different, but I cant see where its better, at least on my phone. Really missing the page numbers on each thread.
March 24, 201511 yr I'm not sure if it's the color or font/font size but it's not the easiest on the eyes. I'm sure I will like it after a while. It's tough for me to read/see. I'm sure the eyes will adjust with time though. Horrible on the eyes to read, need to get away from the white background. I'm having trouble reading it. But I'm sure I'll adjust. Love the Top button as well. Is a little rough on the eyes when looking through the treads in the forum. Seems harder to see which thread has something new in it that I'd like to read. I miss the bolded blue when it has a new post that I haven't been in yet. But I couldn't tell you how it looked before the last change, and I'm sure I said similar things then haha! Start out with 1.0 strength and you can figure out what works best for you from there. Best thing about it is readers are cheap. I'm having trouble reading it too, but my readers are in the car.

March 24, 201511 yr Mobile site doesn't tell you how many or what page you are on just says next or previous.

March 24, 201511 yr Horrible on the eyes to read, need to get away from the white background. Agreed, with the bright white background it's hard on the eyes. For those who mentioned Facebook changes, no I didn't like some of them but the fonts an brightness were actually better. Didn't know they were already beta testing this. But other than the above, it doesn't make a difference to me on a laptop. Now on the mobile site, the font and brightness doesn't bother me nearly as much. Someone also mentioned about not being able to select a page in a thread, That would be even a bigger issue on a thread with many pages.

Oh I get that. I just found the previous version easier...at this time. Us old dogs have issues with change and we're not as quick to pick things up as we once were. Thanks for the info and help.
March 24, 201511 yr :lol2: I have 20/20 vision, it's not that. I think it's more about the color scheme or something. Soon enough, whippersnappers. Like me, you'll stop lying to yourself and bite the bullet.
March 24, 201511 yr Folks, as one who has been through MANY BGP format changes over the years let me tell you it's always for the better. You'll get used to it. You hated FB when they changed. I like it. I've been on BGP for 13 years and I don't think I've immediately liked any format change, except this one.
