I like the new look. Does need some more blue though. I'm going to miss the "Agree" reaction if it isn't brought back.

In terms of functionality, it is difficult to select text when you are typing a post because the highlight colour is white, almost the exact same as the background, its very hard to make it out.

The forum reminds be of the old Behind Big Brother forums.

Hi all, some more changes to come this week. Apologies for teething issues, these will be fixed throughout the week.
Does that include an update to the mobile app or just the web interface?

I don't like it one bit... Why change something that was already great.
Just my opinion

It's just the latest version of the same forum software. We do have to upgrade it from time to time to stay compatible with the latest browsers. Some missing things mentioned may be added back and other things adjusted, this is just an uncustomised version of the upgrade. Stay tuned like Nash said

I disagree... Would you petition for big changes to Facebook to keep it relevant??
How long has Facebook remained relatively unchanged??
Actually its changed much more frequently than the Kennel. Last update was a few months ago. April or May I think

I did say relatively unchanged... I have happened across a bulldogs forum that took me by surprise. Sometimes change is good sometimes it ain't.... But I'm just an average Joe blow fan of this forum and I do respect moderators and everyone involved in making this forum very enjoyable.
Maybe I'm turning into an old fart (45) and don't like change
Happy to be a continuing supporter of this great forum

Cmon man... Facebook UI changes many times a year. And it has changed drastically in the last couple of years. You will get used to the new layout, trust me. This always happens when design changes. Humans can be really scared of change and difference, that’s what’s happening in your brain right now.

Yeh we don't upgrade it every single version they release, we skipped some versions from the last one to this one. But if u don't do it every few years it starts behaving badly in newer browsers. We kinda have to go with the look of their new versions unless we change software which is a huge and expensive job. There are some things we can change and will be soon, like adding posts counts and stuff like that back. This is just day 1
