NEW SITES TO BE DEPLOYED TOMORROW 5/17/12

Hi all,

We just want to let everyone know tomorrow morning 5/17/12 we will be deploying our upgraded FishErie, FishSalmonRiver, and Forums websites. There may be a short period of time where there may be no access to the sites. We do not for-see the transition taking much time. Please contact us at webmaster@fishusa.com if you are having troubles with any of the new sites.

We thank you for your continued support.

Great sight....thanks..:)

What? You changed it? Why are you messing with it? This new site is too hard to use. What was wrong with the old site? I can't find anything!
There. Got that out of the way for you.
Great job guys. I like the new layout and the home page is pretty cool.

Not really liking the new colors and format either.  PM box is hard to get to and then back to the forum page.

I like it...good job and THANKS!

Im diggin the new look. 

Mod.  I noticed that if you go into mine or any others profile page that you dont have any options to pm or view anything on there page.  Also trying to edit anything other than your basic information in my profile page, like feature preferences, additional options avatar and sig, are not working.  I didnt know if you knew about this but i wanted to bring this to your attention.  I tried to pm Mod but it will not let me.

We are currently working on fixing the remaining issues with the new software.
 
We are aware of the customization options not functioning properly and are working to resolve the issue.
 
Thank you for your patience.

I understand the need to remain current with the technology... but definitely preferred the appearance of the other board myself.  But my major complaint about this new format is the loss of the ability to click one button and have a list of new posts.
 On the previous board you could go down to the bottom of the main forum page and had the option 'posts since last visit'.... this option then gave you a list of individual posts all on one page instead of having to wade through the forums one area at a time.  For me it seemed much easier, then if you left it sit idle for a while and came back later you could just refresh the page and any new posts were again listed at the top for easy reference.
 I belong on numerous other sites, all have at least a similar option to the 'posts since last visit' option we used to have... so am hoping this can be added back as admin tweeks the site.
 As of now I can't do any updates to my preferences on my PM inbox, and in fact it won't even let me delete old ones... but I think that may change as admin works the kinks out.
 Navigation around the site doesn't seem as easy as it was before, but again, I am old and set in my ways.... so I imagine it will get easier with exposure/use.
 
Congrats  and well done to the administration folks for the hard work put into getting this up and running... just adding the video linking option is going to be something I'm sure a lot of folks will enjoy! 

I only see a few smilies to chose from!!!! Yeah what fisherchick said about "last post" Plus can't load site using www.fishusa.com can only get on from the old www.fisherie.com site. Maybe that's why only 'bout 6 members are logged on the site tonight oh welp used up 2 ov the 14 smillies so far.
 
crappy

Not a huge fan of this baby blue color, feel like I should shave my arms and legs after being on here. Other than that, guess it aint that bad

Really slow and graphics messed up on my smart phone when I try to go there. The admins should create a mobile version.
