OldSchoolBlue Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Testing this on my mobile. Agree with Negatron, this is one of the best mobile-forums I've seen. Awesome. This. The mobile site is fantastic. Finally!
voodoochylde Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 This. The mobile site is fantastic. Finally! One of my absolute favourite features. Makes the site so much more accessible.
Cam Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Piling on the positive comments about how mobile friendly this site is. Great work!
Rich Posted June 4, 2013 Author Report Posted June 4, 2013 This is of course what happens when you do upgrades in the middle of the night. My original post should have read special thanks to Brandon not Brian. And thank you all for the kind comments about the site. Very excited about how this upgrade turned out
kelownabomberfan Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 looking really good! I like how I can just copy and paste pictures now, so much easier.
Jacquie Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 knocked it out of the park JimmyFres... i mean, Rich. i freaking love this. Now you can see I did know what I was talking about when I said there were huge differences between free forum software and the really good software that is licensed.
bluto Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Now you can see I did know what I was talking about when I said there were huge differences between free forum software and the really good software that is licensed. did you say that? sorry... don't remember you. what was your handle on OB?
iso_55 Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 Easier on the eyes than the last version so that is good. Just came in here so haven't seen the entire new site yet.
Captain Blue Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 This really looks good and is really easy to read.
Brandon Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 We weren't quite sure what to expect when we decided to open MorningBigBlue.com. We are very pleased to say that the response has been beyond our expectations. A big thank you to everyone who has come and contributed to make this place the success that it is. With such an overwhelming response, we decided to invest in better software for the site. We found a package (special thank to Brandon for the suggestion) that not only provides the majority of the features asked for, but will allows us, with your help, to grow into a Winnipeg Blue Bomber Community rather then just a message board. This is fantastic news that you guys ended up switching to this board, that other site I linked to you has lots of nice neat features that can be added in at any time and they've tinkered with it quite a bit and it seems very easy to add things on the fly. I like the look and the layout, and maybe a bit of gold might be nice, but I'm digging the grey and the blue.
RagingIce Posted June 6, 2013 Report Posted June 6, 2013 I love the look, but I think the layout is busted in IE8, so I can't browse at work. I'll try and post a screenshot tomorrow.
iso_55 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Posted June 6, 2013 I love the look, but I think the layout is busted in IE8, so I can't browse at work. I'll try and post a screenshot tomorrow. Try Google Chrome.... It works for me now.
RagingIce Posted June 6, 2013 Report Posted June 6, 2013 Try Google Chrome.... It works for me now. Yea, I use better browsers at home, but I don't have much of a choice at work unfortunately - we're not allowed to install software.
Super Duper Negatron Posted June 6, 2013 Report Posted June 6, 2013 Yea, I use better browsers at home, but I don't have much of a choice at work unfortunately - we're not allowed to install software. Try this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-8
Captain Blue Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 I didn't know which thread to put this one (this one or the updates one) but would it be possible to maybe get a little line or tidbit about where the name of the site comes from? I think outsiders are probably curious and/or confused about how the name came about.
Noeller Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Hmmm...there used to be a Code Of Conduct thing on the old layout that explained it all, but that appears to be gone now...
Jacquie Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Hmmm...there used to be a Code Of Conduct thing on the old layout that explained it all, but that appears to be gone now... There's a link to the Code of Conduct in the bottom right hand corner of each page.
Rich Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 Yeah the Code of Conduct is not the most prominent on this site. I've been thinking the same thing that the explanation of the name should be moved somewhere else but haven't yet come up with any good ideas, other then creating a Pinned thread about it. I'm open to suggestions on where we could put the explanation.
BlueBall Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Many sites have an "About" link at the top of the page where they explain who they are and what their company/website is all about. Maybe add that ("About MBB") and include the story behind the name there? Mike and Rich 2
Mike Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Make sure to mention how it was my idea and how Voodoo hated it.

TrueBlue Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Make sure to mention how it was my idea and how Voodoo hated it. Time to stop recycling your GIFs Mike.
