Very Surprised to see NamePros like this

[faisj]

Hi everyone,

I am a old member of NamePros but did not log in for quite some time.
Today I came on the site to find some information and saw the new layout.

WAUW... thats so different.

With all respect to the designer of the new template... I miss the old look and feel of NamePros.

kind regards,

Faisj

I agree, the default one isn't something I'm fond of. But you can change the theme via the drop-down box at the very bottom of the page

Hi,

Yeah I tried that but it aint what it was like a year ago..

Does NP have a new owner?

kind regards,

Faisj

i use the 3.8 red white and blue style and feel right at home.... aside from the live chat link being moved, i really see/feel no difference browsing the site... same great people, same great place!

 

[Janine]

The facebook theme is great.

but now im using the master theme.

I think the owner is still Rj. ?

 

[Phoebe_]

I like the default but am currently using Way 2 Pink theme

 

[Eric]

Yes, of course RJ still owns NP :P

And indeed, haven't seen you in a while Faisj - vB was upgraded from 3.0.x to 3.8 on May 1st and has been getting updates since then

i have to agree... going back to the old one would be nice... i miss the tried and true look of namepros myself. I've been gone for a while myself and i defiantly agree.

What it was what 1 - 1 1/2 years ago was the best to date...

I like Namepros always and find it with more betterment.

Sorry to say this but.... To me the default looks childish and very unprofessional. Looks like it was made by someone who doesnt know how to do designs and couldn't afford to pay someone to make one.

I very much dislike the new layout. The ajax load on front page is annoying too.

 

[pathaan]

Congrats for that! LOL honestly it's my 5th log in here or I think 10th, really dont
remember, but you're right it's getting better & better each & everyday. good luck to
the owner & moderator, Looking forward to see this forum as one of the top forums now

Agreed

I think activity here is starting to dwindle too as the layout pushes people away. I don't see stats but that's how it appears. Also in the past 3-6 months there has been a number of changes to layout imho they are probably attempts to make the forum look right. It's not gone well in my view.

I would like to see NP have one single layout too. Using the old red and blue. The pink one is attrocious. Also it's harder to get feedback when everyone has different layouts.

Is this really the best icon for the forum posts?

I mean c'mon. RJ...you're a good guy. You're a very smart guy. You have resources to do better than this. It's a bit disappointing.

I partially blame VBulletin for this. They added so many stupid features that it's making many forums one giant muddled mess trying to fit it all.

Agreed,

RJ, I would review your only competition in the market and point your designers to fix up the look clean and professional like our friends at the other house. I was happy with the first few changes you made in the early stages, after that it has just gone downhill for me.

simplicity is the key element in design.

Hi Eric,

Wauw thats a long time ago...
-RJ- can you add the option for the old design of NP?
i simply loved that.
