The problem was that I did NOT select Highlight from the options menu except for just now after you suggested playing around with it.

 


 

As before, one post in the thread always has focus, perhaps with the gradients it's just more obvious which post is highlighted now.

We are aware of the Image Gallery issue and it will be resolved shortly, although probably not today.

You can still add images to your gallery by uploading an image in a post.


 

Thanks, Shannon. Nice smiley ;-D

Re: Forum Software Update

Concerning the avatars, we have preserved your old avatar if you wish to continue using it. The new avatars are larger, hence the reason the (old)avatar is positioned in the right hand corner and filled in with gray.

 

Note:  Once you change your old avatar, you can not get it back.

Re: Forum Software Update: New Font Size

New font size for forum listings and topic listings in Norton Community is WAY TOO SMALL--

-Please change it back to the way it was, which was just right.

Re: Forum Software Update

Changes    Changes   Changes

Where's my line thing that I finally learned how to use when I wanted to copy what someone said from another post.??? Looks like I am going to have to try and learn a new method again.:(

Looks like we going to have to change our macros that say to post your attachment right under the post button. I will have to remember to do make those changes........

Under the attachments space, it now says Remove....Is that to remove your post or the attachment?

Success always occurs in private and failure in full view.

Re: Forum Software Update

 Need more contrast between some of the text and background.

i.e. darker font color's

A bit ' wishy washy ' in places.

Hi all:

 

This Forum update makes everything look much smaller.

 

I actually have to squint now, compared to the previous version of the Forum Software. :smileysad:

 

Three things that stand out:

 

1) The small KUDOS icon on the left hand side is not complete, only 2/3 of it is displayed. There isn't any text displayed that could elict a response from a user even to give it. Just looks like a yellow background white a white star.

 

 What about changing KUDOS to "CLICK TO COMPLIMENT HERE?"

 

2) The indicator lights for friends/users online or offline are practically indistinguishable. I now have to read the actual text, which IMO, is very confusing.

 

3) The Solution button is too close to the adjoining button and is of the same color  and size - hard to differentiate - one misplaced click and that's it.

 

New things take time to refine.

 

Just my opinion... :0)

Re: Forum Software Update

 

Changes are always hard to adjust to.....Can I ask are there more improvements coming or is this it and now we just wait for the fine tuning as issues come up?
