A.K.R. Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I don't know why, but I feel that the interface of Neowin is getting old and needs a change. Even the software that powers this very forum should be upgraded. Look, Neowin is running on Invision Power Board version 1.3, while the highest version I have heard is 2.0. Neowin should upgrade the software that is powering the forum, as I have heard that it has new features in it, and we (or at least me) will appreciate that. Also, the interface of Neowin needs upgrading. There is another thread talking about this, so I suggest that you read it first. However, I think that a UI upgrade should go beyond what is being posted there. I have thought up of a concept design, and I will show you a diagram of it when it is available.

RadishTM Veteran Posted June 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2004 Umm IPB 2.0 is still in beta, and 1.3 is the most current & stable version of IPB. We know about that thread and we are in the process of designing a new interface for Neowin. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I thought the latest stable version of IPB is 1.3.1? 1.3 and 1.3.1 are the same as long as you've installed the two security updates for 1.3 1.3.1 when you install it as a whole fresh has those two updates.

Bearded Kirklander Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 If people don't like Neowin forums the way they are, well, go post somewheres else! :o I use IPB Skin Set 1.2 and the fonts are easy to read, the line spacing is great and the colors are mild and work great. About the only think I could ask for is the ability to view smiles but not view any other graphics, including attached graphics, so that if you browse at work you can see emoticons but not get busted viewing big graphics. But I like Neowin for what it is and am glad it is here so I'm just going to enjoy it for what it is and not try to make it something it isn't. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that some things has to be upgraded when the time comes. Of course, I'm against upgrading for the sake of having the "latest and greatest", so if Neowin has the newest most stable version of the Invision Power Board software, then an upgrade is not necessary until the next final. However, the UI is a bit outdated. I feel that there is still room for improvement. My diagram is still not ready yet, as I'm trying to improve the design. I will post the diagram when it is really. It will have nothing fancy, just lines and boxes that act as a guide for a new UI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
