McDougall Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Fin, Nice looking home page, especially that guy ripping up that untracked cord! He must be a Hero... McDougall I just make it look easy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Yellow Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Somethings fishy.... Who's that old fart in the second picture on the home page? My only feedback.... the site needs more Trent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0ardski Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 the old site was looking/feeling,,, well, old. The new home page is way friendlier and more inviting, much better for luring the masses over to the dark side:rolleyes: The whys and how tos (articles) are more prominent and everything seems more intuitive. Active threads on the home page was a great move. Kudos Fin:biggthump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icebiker Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I like it...especially since there's much more white in the backgrounds...looks brighter and, well, snowier :) Don't forget to change the BOL tag line on the forum page to match the one on the home page ;) Congrats!

Miltie Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Fin and Michelle, Nice new site! Like the updates. The Store functions including "shopping bag" and "continue shopping" are much improved. Thanks for your hard work and keeping the stoke for Apline riding alive. You guys rule!

Michelle Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 The shopping cart was a big part of it, and a huge upgrade. I also like the groomer background - makes it feel more like a carving site than a shopping site. Like Fin said we're still working out the bugs so please bear with us if something doesn't work properly, or there's a mistake on your order. It will take a little while to realize all of them. Thanks for your continued support! Carve on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your continued support! Carve on! All in all, I love the new site. I am not a huge fan of the Comic Sans font used on the main navigation buttons.... but everything else is right on. Obviously you still need a link back to the commercial site that sits at the top of the forums. Pretty sure that was always there, cuz it's always been real easy to go drool over the TD3 or SW or ....... Anyway. When is this forum going to get "Like" buttons? Thanks.

jp1 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 just an Old Fart that shuns change (took 6 years to figure out the old board, and only knew 1/2 of it) but I'll try to navigate as I'm sure it is a change for the better. It looks like I am in the minority, but to me the colors all seem to blend (not enough Pop) specially the light blue. I miss the italic and bold options for messages, I thought they were here the other day and I see others have used them, can't get the smileys to work either, duh ? Love the Groom, that will be my next custom Topsheet ! 2 Days to SES (and a fresh batch on the way) but who's counting ? - jp1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I would have commented in the new forum launch thread but that has since been locked. In-line links and attachments no longer open in a new tab and/or window like they used to by default, but now open in the same tab as the forum messages. Can the old functionality be retained?

carvedog Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Looking on the main bomber site store for fintech heels. I can find all the parts listed separately but the heels aren't under boots or accessories or.... FYI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 They are under Binding Accessories http://bomberonline.3dcartstores.com/Binding-Accessories_c_25.html I know it will take a little while for people to find stuff, but hopefully this is a better organization than before. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carvedog Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Never would of thought to look under binding accessories. Maybe they should be listed under Boot Accessories too??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.oldsnowboards.com Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Couple items: Forum When attempting to "unsubscribe" from a notice email I get this message. Invalid Redirect URL (http://sz.ev.mail.comcast.net/zimbra/mail?app=mail not sure , but it looks like a conflict with comcast? I changed a few things in the line for security.

kmartshopper Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 Very possible it's me, but is the search function having problems on the new site? If I search in for-sale for 'catek', I get 12 results back to 2003. That just can't be :) Searching for BTS in the whole site gets me 0 hits... that may have always been a limitation (3 chars?), I can't say.

You also now can't specify particular forums to search on eg 'Classifieds' like you used to be able to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWboarder Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 I concur with the search feature having lost all sensibility from the old style. For example, I just searched "Volkl" and 7 recent threads popped up and the rest are 2003 and later. Also, more importantly and directly related to Bomber, I searched "TD2" and NOTHING came up... Im no IT guy but that cant be right... or good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
