Rikki Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 So far I am unimpressed with IPB 3. We were told to expect a great looking skin design that would blow us away... where is it? If the current skin is it... some people have low standards. This current skin is comparable to the pro version of the IPB 2.3.X series. Now the features of IPB 3 is awesome! But to me the looks are most important, features are secondary. I think we explained this many times on the preview board :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Kaiser Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I wonder if anyone noticed it's slow. Or if that this is a beta, and not the final.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y0Y0 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The skin will grow on you (sort of speak) but the features are awesome indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor T Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I love this editor more than anything. I love the rounded corners, its a great skin. Its weird how the "Go" buttons are bigger than the list boxes and text boxes they sit next to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smarts Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Love the features I must admit, just the forum speed issue worries me. Personaly when all the bugs are out of the way I may l upgrade to this version myself. Good job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its weird how the "Go" buttons are bigger than the list boxes and text boxes they sit next to. I find that strange as well! Just doesn't look right, they should be proportional like the search button is with the text box at the top of the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y0Y0 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Agree, and the "Post" button in Fast Reply is bigger than "Use Full Editor". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bain Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I think we explained this many times on the preview board :) Perhaps you have. However some people don't visit the preview board. I happen to be one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikki Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I apologize, I thought it was you that had brought it up on the preview board originally and to whom we had responded. Essentially it boils down to: a flashy whizz bang technical marvel of a skin is not appropriate as a default skin for a product. A default skin has to meet several criteria, including being generic enough to fit with the layouts of most sites, and basic enough for most users to use as a base for their own customizations. Naturally, at the same time, we want it to be attractive and appealing. By most accounts, we've achieved that with IPB3 Feel free to elaborate on what you were instead hoping for, and I'll try to address it more directly.

Rod. Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I think the default skin is great. Very clean design, that's what has always attracted me to IPS. Most other forums out there have a very unattractive and cluttered design, glad you guys have kept it clean and simple, which makes it easy to use... Good job!

Guest Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm using the IP.Board skin and I don't see any borders on quotes. Using Chrome. It does work in Safari and IE though, oddly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marklcfc Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Any new skins anytime soon? Still totally uninspired by the look of it, - mainly cause it won't suit my site, sure it's good in a way but its so plain white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
