I like the new look but searches aren't working for me either.

while i don't hate the new look, everything seems big and bulky, so you seem to see less content per page than before. the old design was more streamlined. and before when you clicked on "last post" from the home page, you went to the actual most recent post on the thread. now you go instead to the last page of the thread and have to look for the last post on it.

Today I upgraded the vBulletin software which Dissensus runs on from version 3.8.2 to version 4.0.1. It cost me a few bob to do but the developers Jelsoft have put a load of work into moving the software forward and crucially for me the new Default skin has been given a radical overhaul. Now it actually looks just about OK! In the past the only vaguely usable skin was done by a user called Timan at Aqua-Soft. The problem with that skin though was that it was based on the Macintosh OS X UI and, though a longtime Mac-user (since Mac OS 8), in the end that was too much of an obnoxious proposition for me.
Once upon a time the mega-talented Anil Bawa Cavia designed a skin for the forum which we dubbed nick(s)kin in honor of the legendary Nick Kilroy, however the problem was that each time Jelsoft redesigned the vBulletin software - and this is necessary to keep up with the web - a skin becomes out-of-sync with the board's various templates and consequently ceases to work. If it was up to me we'd still be running that old skin. I'm hoping there won't be too many issues with the upgrade. I've waited until v 4.0.1 to let them take the edge off the errors in the code.

Missing the blue too. More discrete for worktime usage. The rest of it I can get used to.

The only reason I can think of is that the forum has been moved to a cheaper internet company. Though I hope that the layout & colours can still be improved despite the tight budget

It looked boring and technical, so no.
I find the vertical post layout option slightly better I think - with user details / avatar's at the side of posts, seems to get more on screen. I realise its early days with the new versh.

I think you need to re set your preferences to look back more than a month, then it should sort that out. There's a thing underneath the list of threads threads in each forum that should do that.
