Of course, these are entirely optional - you don't have to tell the world this info - but for some people it will be very welcome.

I just tried out sending a message, and when I looked at it on My page, the subject in the subject line is in strike through text

Now it's back on and looking around I'm not totally convinced it a change for the better.
The threads / posts appear to be far to small on screen.
I'm finding it extremely difficult to navigate around the forum. But I'll probably get used to it.
In some cases the signatures of those posting messages are much rather than the message typed which is confusing / distracting.
The forum software seems to have followed most other forums in so far as posting a brief post or an advanced post where as previously we only had one option which to me was better.
The spell check takes time to work and must be switched off before a reply can be posted.
I could go on but ....

Sorry RSPB IT Chaps - The new look forum is extremely difficult to navigate as far as I'm concerned, others may find it interesting but I'm struggling. Please take a look at other forums which use phpBB software - it's far more user friendly.

Me too. I have actually given myself a headache trying to work my way around the forums, I've put stuff in favorite places and the drop down menu disappears behind the search box. As a dyslexic and Irlen syndrome person I find the smaller print harder to read and the large signature box very distracting. If there is a short reply I tend to miss it.

Hi Chris,
The line through means you've sent a message, when the person replies it won't have the line through so its sort of saying nothing new has been added since you replied.

I can't find a link to provide feedback, so have posted this here. On the osprey forum page, the links to the details of the individual ospreys on the right hand side of the screen at the bottom are all not working. Please can they be restored. Thanks. AG
Hi AG,
I think your request may get missed on this thread. You may be better starting a new thread or adding it to one of the other (many) threads of complaints!
Cheers, Linda.

It's both what you do and the way that you do it!

I might not have put this over very well, but what I meant was as I typed in a title, the title I chose appeared in strike through text. This was before I had even started typing the message text or thought of sending it.
