I'll be honest; I saw the "maintenance underway" and was like, "nuu!" But when I got back and saw the modifications done to the website, even though the original red does look pink (switched it to blue), and my new reaction was: "Wow... This is pretty sweet!" But I admit I was confused when I saw the Help Desk option; I thought I had been promoted or something, haha.


But truly, brilliant job on the upgrade you two! It's great!

I LOVE it.
Quick question, how exactly does the percentage warning system work exactly? (If it's written down somewhere, sorry, I'm kinda too lazy to look X3)

Good question! I'm going to be writing out a thorough explanation shortly once I get around to it.

Short explanation is: 0% = no warnings, 100% = baaad. :P Every time you (in general, not meaning you specifically) break the forum rules, your percentage goes up. How much it goes up depends on the severity of your rule breakage. At certain points down the line, your percentage will determine whether you are being Watched (same as what used to be called "Warned"), Moderated, or Muted. Each day you go without breaking any rules, your percentage will go back down a little bit until it's back to 0%.

Where can one see there warning percentage if I may ask? Does it only appear after you've broken a rule?

In your profile. If it's not there at all, that means you're at 0%.

Just finished writing up the explanation of the warning system. Further information can be found here: http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=17517.0

Amazing to see how far the forum has come over the 3 years or so I've been a member. Of course, if I was around more often, each improvement wouldn't be so sudden or drastic but...heh heh, that's my fault.
I have to say that you've really outdone yourself with all these new changes as of late and this big overhaul is pretty impressive. The revamp of the warning system is one that I think will help make a difference (the ability to see what you've possibly accidentally done wrong can be helpful). New design is looking good although I must admit that at least on my monitor the red theme is a tad pinkish and blue seems to be leaning more purple than blue. That could just be me though and I have to say that regardless, it's looking good and pretty polished. Thanks for all the hard work!
The farewell was premature. My definite stay is not definite. The constants are variable. The greeting was too late.

As I haven't said anything yet.

I want to thank everyone for the comments. Both myself and Zephyr have been working on plans for this for over a year, the actual creation took 3-4 months.

Feel free to ask any more questions, I just can't think of anything to say!

I have a question!
Is it possible to revert to the old layout because this is rubbish?

Just kidding, I love it as I believe I stated earlier  X3

This layout isn't that different to the old one though. Yes, it's changed slightly but everything is practically in the same place - or a more intuitive place.

The layout had to change as it did due to the changes made to the backend, it's a complete recode, I've had to adapt a lot to fit with it.

By the way - in case some of you were wondering where the old left-side menus went (like when viewing your Profile), you can change the view by clicking on the expand arrow on the upper right.

Thought that might be important to point out.

Due to response about the themes, I've slightly edited the Red theme so that it is a more vivid red rather than slightly pinkish. Just refresh to see the changes.

If this bothers you because you like pink - don't worry. We have plans for you. ;)

I think it's better to show the blue theme before you log in rather than the really noticible in the library red theme, just sayin.
