New site design being tested!

My post about the greyness early was in reference to the lack of colour not contrast. The mobile active page used to have some green. Now it's monochrome.
I have the new font on my phone. Perhaps that has just happened after others said they hadn't ?

Difficult to explain but, it just does not do anything for me....took me ages to find how to get onto the threads I'm on.....it just all seems to be far less intuitive to use.

Not a lot of colour like to have my comment highlighted no problem with font size

EDIT button could be available for eg 3 mins after a post has been made, to change errors but not subvert the conversation.
This happens on other forums I'm on.

My posts are still blue on mobile sie. Are they here I wonder.........

Don't like font or size

Nope, they're not.
I think that needs sorting HQ although I always use mibile. Others are not happy.

Excuse typos. Desktop is so small !!

Annoying as it is when you no tits that you've made a steak . I think we mange quite well without an adit buffoon. Going back and charging something you said way bark could mean that other posts no longer make sents.

It's ok. I soon got the hang of the headings.
For those who don't like the new font you can make it smaller or larger by pressing on Control and moving your mouse wheel back and forth unti you find a comfortable size for you.

Ooh, that's clever TriciaF
I am impressed!
I usually go to the three dots at the top right of the page and can change it there but only in % stages.

perhaps a spellcheck but that may not work for gilylbob as steak is a word and so is mange - and other words.
In fact her post makes perfect sents really

Oh no! I don't like change at all. It was perfectly fine before. If it ain't broke why fix it? ?

But is there a way to ditch the out-of-date serifs?
Is gilly 's post a not altogether subtle illustration of the need for the edit button?

Ok! What happened? When I looked earlier desktop site had old-fashioned series while mobile site had a modern sans-serif font. Now both are the same and I don't like the serifs!

OMG! Just checked tablet which has sans-serif on mobile site but serifs on desktop. Phone has serifs on both!
So it'll have to be mobile site on tablet from now on even though I don't like grey/maroon colouring!! WHYYYYYYY?
I back the poster who said ' if it ain't broke don't fix it!!!

No adverts? Is this permanent or just because it is beta?

doesn't stand out very well, but after a day or so I wont notice.

And now the b*** serifs are back on the mobile site on the tablet!

The colouring is now awful just pale grey against white I can't tell the difference between the name line and the post

I can't accept your explanation of no edit button EVERY. Forum I ve ever been on except this one has an edit button even if it's only a five minute one which doesn't change the conversation at all

I m on an iPad and it's way too white now ( logo just as old fashioned looking)

Must admit the new logo looks a bit silly! Is that a meerkat in the middle?

do you mean the three people behind a wall/banner?

As Del Boy would say - 'It's a little baby'

I don't like the font , I'd call it old fashioned personally. I'd like slightly more definition between the grey and the white.

I also think an edit button an essential. You can see when a post has been edited so I disagree that people won't be able to work out what's what.

I don't like the logo either ( sorry GN HQ ) , it's too twee for me .

I have looked at Mumsnet and have decided:

I prefer their design.
I don't like this wishy washy grey
I prefer the typeface on Mumsnet - plain and straightforward
And the simple logo (well, not a logo)
