I don't like the new forum outlook, anyone want to second me?

my main point : it's slower than old format with same usage habit. It used to be one of the fastest, now is slowest, Facebook game also overtake it
I'm not going to install anything extra as it may clash with my other software. Happened before, caused havoc. I just wait & see if got button to enable switching back to old/classic view, like Yahoo Mail

is the speed better now? i have upgraded the php accelerator to the latest version and turned on more caching than before.

it seems speedier from my side.

I feel the speed is much faster now.

It's like Facebook & YouTube...they all go through design changes and what not, and everyone starts hating it in the beginning (Especially Facebook where they create groups/fan pages HOLY...)

I disabled all those options. Youtube, I dont use it much nowadays, maybe that's why, lol. Yahoo Mail just came out with new design, I chose to revert to Classic(Old) view.

Hahahaha, it's slower today than yesterday, slowest among Yahoo, google, Facebook. It's ok lah Kwun, no need to go thru so much trouble.

i like the new look of this site. The colors are not tiring to my eyes.

Anyway, it seems eaglehelang's computer (maybe) the cause of slow page loading, or maybe his browser.

I am using firefox 3.6. The loading of BCF pages is quite fast, even if am browsing BCF pages with large/huge pixels of photos. It is faster than the previous look/version of software.

The circle on the right side of the user name tells that user is offline or online.

More power to the BCF team!!!

I will alway try out different browser for different sites. Then, I will put a default to the faster sites.

I use chrome for most surfing except for hotmail and cc court booking (using ie).

Darker blue colour please. More striking and easier to read. Just a suggestion.

Did anyone try using Firefox's "Stylish" extension? For an example of what can be done in a couple of minutes you can try creating a new style like this:

img[alt="Badminton Central Discussion Forums"] {
  height: 0 !important;
  width: 0 !important;
  padding-left: 950px !important;
  padding-top: 64px !important;
  // background: url(http://imgur.com/60ZiE.png) !important;
  background: url(http://imgur.com/Iiv0M.png) !important;
}

This just replaces the title image at the top. Of course this one is quite boring, but it'll do me for now. You can pretty much make it look however you want if you know some CSS! And a bit of trial and error can work wonders .

I don't know if anyone else is really interested in this sort of thing but maybe if anyone creates anything interesting they could post it here? I might do something more serious at some point... or I might not. I'm not too bothered by the current appearance other than that it is lacking any badminton related imagery currently.
