New Web Site Hard To Read

The new fonts look good, but the color of the new board makes many things difficult or impossible to read... I've checked the configuration we can change, and it doesn't seem that we can change the color scheme - and even if we could it would probably mean we would write posts that others couldn't read...

Just look through a few posts, too many people in the past have used a color close to the new background one, so they are now unreadable....

I might be the only one having problems, in which case I'll do a local hack to change the colors on the fly...

I agree with Ian 100%

It's terrible for these old eyes to read.

My PM count also went from 25 to over 100%.

Let's hope the bugs are ironed out soon.

What was wrong with the old version anyway ?

The presentation and readability was excellent

Oh yeah, I have a fast connection but posting seems to be soooo sloooow

Invision Power Board is a much better forum system - has a number of extra functions and is quite easy to maintain and admin - as well as do addons..

the hardest part about it is programming the Skins - i've done a couple of them on different forums - not the easiest and takes a fair bit of time to get exactly right.

Font however is too small.. my eyes are straining to read it properly..

I agree it's harder to read.

I would also like the quick reply function back.

I've also noticed that some of the sig image tags aren't working for some reason. Mine work fine while others don't.

Also, will the "nsw member", etc tags be returned?

I'm trying it again this morning - with the pages expanded in size (firefox - control key and wheel mouse will do that). It then is big enough to read, but the colors are still doing their best to make it unreadable...

So it's not the new forum software that is the 'problem' - it's the color/font scheme! Please change it!!!!!!

The new skin is now available, makes it easier to read :rolleyes:

      Done, I'll do mine soon too - whenver I take out the car next. I can cheat and make it quieter by turning off VCT at idle too - but I lose the braps

      The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.

      I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.
