the new layout

I'm getting hell pissed off with the number of people bitching and moaning about the new layout.Anyone would think,the way that some of you are carrying on,that Igor had molested your cars and run off with your kid sisters[or vice versa!].Let's be honest,we all get attatched to web sites that we visit regularly,but at the end of the day we make little or no impact on the funding of this site.If you liked the old layout so much,there's always the option of going out,buying some bandwidth ,and giving it your best shot.Somehow,I don't think you'd find it as satisfying as coming here and pissing and moaning over relatively trivial matters.

If you have suggestions as to how the new layout can be sharpened up,I'm certain that Igor would be keen for you to majke a case.Sitting on your backsides grizzling and demanding the reinstatement of the old layout is lame.Remember,it's the CONTENT that makes AF good,not simply the color scheme.

What you bring to the board is what the board becomes.If you want to discuss tech issuues,review new models,share a laugh or a few modelling tips,your contribution helps to build this place into a great site.If you want to piss and moan about something that you get for free,you are basically shitting on your own doorstep.

There's room for improvement and fine tuning with the new layout,for certain,but to demand that things never change is narrowminded and selfish.Seems to me that if some people on this site were offered a better newer car for free,they'd turn it down because the seat wasn't set the way that they like it.

I have to agree on that, yes it was a little frustrating at firt, but once u get used to it, its just like navigating the old one, u guys need to stop bitchin about it and be thankfull that u have a FREE forum to post on, share info, and display watever u want to , the forum look changed, still the same old AF, get over it.

I agree with Naki, at 1st I was not too happy with the change I quickly adapted too it and its like nothing ever happened...get over it people its a FUCKIN WEBSITE, life does not all of a sudden come to a screeching halt b/c Igor changes the board around

:werd: i adapted to ina few days, now it liek the changed never happend.

my:2cents: i actually like it even if it lost my avatar of Morpheus, but it's growing on me...i like it where it can look at my stats and whatnot when i first log in the only thing that i was feeling weord about was the fact that i haven't been on AF for a while and i kinda felt outta the loop for a second :frown: but it's ok

just took some getting used to.. i think some stuff got reversed and confused me a little.... help me figure out how to put my car pic in my sig.

IMO Its not that much different is it? I'm not bothered that much.

The only constant is change.

Some people need to learn that.

I just can't believe people actually got that worked up over a damn website format. Holy shitballs. It confused me at first, but i never got worked up over it or had a problem. Some people just need to learn to GROW UP!!! :eek: :eek:

what's after AF enthusiast?? and how many posts until you reach it???

All I know is I asked about changing that red AF symbol Igor had started to use back to the old blue AF that you see on the top left. Several others offered agreement and low and behold its my favorite blue symbol :smile: I can attest that there are features here I don't like as much as before, but Igor is good to his world of making the place the way the bulk of people here would like.

To those that bitch and moan. Be sure to stop in the I Want Change forum and put up a poll on your suggestion. Also let me point out that very few people know how to read over there since they don't put up the IWC: threads the way Igor asked. Its funny seeing the number of people who can't (or won't) follow directions.

You should stop in the AF in General forum area for the latest changes.
