Looks like they updated it overnight. On mobile, it is so much easier to use, particularly showing unread or new posts.

aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA
IT'S SO BRIGHT
AAAAAA IT BURNS!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Nah it seems to be okay for the most part. Just a few bugs here and there.

Minor requests/bug:

-Some of the smilies are currently broken or not loading correctly. (this may be a browser issue on my end though)
-Bring back the links in the top banner for additional site resources, such as the Eaglepedia.
-There's a very large news bulletin at the top of the page which has been there forever and now points users at mentioned buttons which no longer exist.

It's also formatted as a column and eats a ton of vertical space.

Going to work on changing the color or colors so it is more like before. As for the smilies, not sure the old ones are fully compatible with the newest version of SMF.
Testing some here.

I'm sure if you need new ones I got 20 years of archived vbulletin emojis. ;)

Thanks for the revamp, Taylor. 

Any idea if the update will change the photo hosting so that larger-size attached photo files don't have to be viewed by dragging a viewing bar back and forth?
Current Project: 1983 Eagle Wagon 258
Past AMC Project(s):  1979 Spirit Liftback 232
                                1968 Ambassador 287

Not sure how photos will show. I do know I was able to up the maximum photo size from 5MB to 16MB, so the picture quality will be much higher.

I was able to easily insert photos in a post rather than having to attach them. Big improvement, thanks!!

How do you give someone a "Thumbs Up" now?

I've now logged on a couple of times with my computer now too. This change wasn't as big as the change on mobile, but I would call this an improvement as well.

Maybe I'm missing it, but it doesn't look like we can do that anymore.
