Les Henson Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Well the new improved LRO website is back, after a couple of hiccups. http://www.lro.com/ Also, the readers forum (chicken shed) is back as well as the other forums. http://www.lro.com/forum/ Ex-members of that site that resided here while waiting for LRO to get up and running may now like to return and bring that website back to it's former standard.

Pyrover Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Don't think much of the layout and the hyperlinks are almost impossible to find due to their colour. Not impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

istruggle2gate11 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 It amazes me why they chose to go down the "build to order" route with the forum, there is so much software off the shelf and this IPB is really hard to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul. I too wonder that. Four other forums that I use hasve recently changed things. None of the problems that I saw with LRO. Just a straight change. In fact if I hadn't have been informed by the forum admin on those places I wouldn't have noticed. Oh yes two of those forums are privatly funded. mike FOAK Knickers I can cause trouble in an empty house !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smo Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 It amazes me why they chose to go down the "build to order" route with the forum, there is so much software off the shelf and this IPB is really hard to beat. phpBB - hardly built to order, its just another IPB/VBB style board that allows customisation.

istruggle2gate11 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 phpBB - hardly built to order, its just another IPB/VBB style board that allows customisation. Yea, I know that. more down the whole website view, just have a fresh page for the forums rather than "building in" that leads to compacting and a untidy view, I run a 24" LCD and it still looks cramped. Admit its a third party software rather than trying to be clever and intergrate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
