Well, its taken a lot of hard work and effort but we are finally here.
CTRO has reached 2015 with a new forum and layout.
Basically removing the requirement for Tapatalk, this new forum will dynamically adjust to EVERY device and look the same across the board.
We have added twitter feeds and other network feeds and modifications will be coming online over the next few days and weeks to bring a whole new experience for you all. :WOOT
Thanks,
Admin Team.

Hi,
Thanks for your hard work upgrading the board. But I am now finding it extremely unusable with the expanse of white that now consumes the board GUI! Is there any way you could add a option in that's less white and more like the old design?

Adi,
Things will progress now the basis is here. Problem we had was that the old platform was pretty well unsupported leaving us in a technological cul-de-sac!
We are happy to receive ideas for making it better for all users :shouldbeinteresting:

could you add a board index link to either the top bar that has home-forum-search-contact (to also include board index) or add board index to the forum "see the trends" drop down list.
i can see that the board index is present as an "addresss" link, but for completeness i think to also have one of the above options would be better

Which browser? I'm going to guess an old version of Internet Explorer?
Old browsers are not HTML5 compliant so won't render correctly.
Can you try another browser? :salut:

Thanks
