What happen to the forum? - About xda-developers.com

Ok i opened the forum today and everything is looking different. I mean the colours of the forum are looking old and the main colour is yellow. Everyone else seeing what i see? Or it is just me?

At the lower left corner of the page choose XDA 2010 instead of XDA Classic.

The 90's wants its Bulletin Board design back

These Colors.....
simple, smooth, easy on the eyes
I use to not be a fan, but it has grown on me over the years.
Very Nice
Not much of a valuable subject for a thread but since it's here, this is easy on the eyes, very smooth, and does not seek to put it's design above the content. Sorry to disagree, but this forum needs no changes to improve it's information delivery. Maybe others do, this one doesn't. It's easy to ready and find what I want, what more could you ask for?

New XDA video. What do you think?

What do you think about the new XDA welcome video guys?
Here is the link for the NEW video.
Here is the link for the OLD video.
I added a poll to gather the opinions of other members.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Old one was better in my opinion.
They showed a link in the upper left corner of a page to a "guide for new users", yet I can't seem to find any pages or links like that. Never mind, I found it by logging out, going to the forum homepage. Not my guide.
I also like the old one better, but this one is made to welcome new users instead of scaring them away.

You guys are quick.
The welcome video is for guests that have never been to XDA before...we wanted to show them how to use the site before using it. We'll also continue to link to the original "you are a Noob" video. :highfive:

I think it is a good idea sir. To give new or aspiring members the sense of welcome ness to join XDA and contribute what they are capable of.

Just a little idea, make the video private so that only those with the link can see it, then put the link in the 'You are a noob on XDA-Developers' video. That way, they have to watch that video before seeing this one
And yeah, preferred the old one obviously.

you better give us photo with macro zoom in the transparent bar.
if you have DSLR camera, it would be better :victory:
if it really scratches, better go to sonny support in your city/country.
I don't have a camera handy, but use your imagination :victory: basically just 3 hair line scratches that go down the strip... not really much else to say haha

Not to be rude or something, but the bar is just made of plastic, so it will scratch.
For me, a phone is something that i'm using several times a day. I'm taking it with me to every place i go and treat or mistreat it according to my current condition. Every f. day.
So yes, if i look closely, there are scratches.
And no, i dont think yo will be able to polish them away.
You might be able to replace the thing altogether, there's a dissasembly guide floating around here at xda.
My personal advice would be to just deal with it. Its not worth a second thought, just use the time to enjoy your life

Look at the very very bottom left and see what theme you are on.
You can select XDA 2013 Beta which is the latest "modern" looking one.

Ok, strange thing:
if I go to your link (forum homepage) I see a page ("before.jpg" attached on this page).
Then I click on "Subscribed" (I have only seen it now... It seems to me some ad-thing before...)
Now, if I go back to homepage I see another page ("after.jpg" attached)
Maybe something cache/cookie related thing...
Anyway, the first time is "hard" to find "Subscribed" button (IMHO)...
I see my subscribed forums but not subscribed threads. I can find them on tapatalk but not here

You don't have the row as shown in my screenshot? (I apologise but when taking the shot I had no unread threads.)
Which style/theme are you using? Can you provide a screenshot?

Actually, I normally using style XDA 2013 Beta, and I only switched to XDA 2015 in order to take the screenshots for you. But it doesn't matter, which style you use, consider to go to your "User Control Panel" (https://forum.xda-developers.com/usercp.php) and the subscribed threads will be shown like on my screenshot (ok, on that page only the unread (called "new") ones will be shown). But when on that page in the "New Subscribed Threads" row you'll find "View all Subscribed Threads". A click there brings you to an overview of all your subscribed threads, which you can also bulk-manage from there.
You can also reach your User Control Panel by clicking on "Settings" (third screenshot, lower right).
Of course all this changes in a few days with the move to ZenForo.
