no one liked when they changed to this

but i cant remember what they looked like now:^O

[ilove2patch]

More changes to get our heads around! Not sure my addled brain can take it! :^O

ooh I never did like the kind of format, I find it hard to follow for some reason, this looks much nicer, but there's nothing I can do about it.:|

where are all the little icons, smileys, pics etc????

[ilove2patch]

They have smilies but they aren't very nice. You need to log in to Ebay canada to try it out I think.

[**towery**]

you get the chance to have different  text, and colours too

i only had a little try last night

it seemed  very  white 😞

im not sure who will be hosting now live world have lost the contract, but hope they can cope with it/us  lol

[captainbovine]

oh I don't want boring smiley's I love ours.....

gawd, why do they always want to alter things?:|

Just been over there for a nose and so far I really like it!

There is a 'like' (kudos) button which a lot of us have wanted here.  No naming of the last person to post on the front page so no more feeling like you are spamming the board when replying to lots of threads at a quiet time.   More functionality in posting, although I agree the smileys are horrible. 

I held ctrl and spun the mouse wheel to adjust the size of type as it seemed a bit small at first, so thats ok.

Kiss of death, but on first impressions I think its an improvement ;\    *5th smiley, while I still can*

Just had a quick look at the new boards.  At the moment, I don't know what to make of it but I've no doubt we'll get used to it.

[captainbovine]

I guess it's not important what it looks like, as long as we can all still be together:-x

[ilove2patch]

We are assuming FHG will still be here! 😮

[chickengrandma-2008]

[chickengrandma-2008]

Yes, that's what we need, just forums for discussing politics and religion and interesting things like that.:|

They looked like this:

http://forums.ebay.com.sg/forum.jspa?forumID=1&anticache=1285794169513&anticache=1285794223920

When I look at that it never ceases to remind me how much I hate the boards now 😞

[leoleoleo123]

I hate those ''quote'' things.. means you have to re-read the whole lot before you find what the poster has replied..

really bad sometimes on the buying and selling boards...:|

Just went into that link (ebay singapore forums) and clicked on their announcement:
