New forum program seems to waste screen space

I agree that there is a lot more wasted screen real estate. Personally I still don't like the new look but we have no choice anyway LOL. Get used to it

 

Actually it seems to use less screen space. In looking at forums in vBulletin (the old forum software) it filled the screen with big blank areas in the middle of menu bars and lists of messages etc. So the new forum software (XenForo) is more compact on the screen. More well behaved.

 

Fortunately I don't pay for screen space. I find I can scroll down indefinitely for no additional charge.

sorry, but is there anyway to use old "skin" for the forums? this is all too annoying, with new software making it look drastically different and very annoying imho

Answered you in another post where you asked the question about getting old view back. So check that message out (see Alerts on the top menu to tell you an answer from me to your other message)

It's different but forum software is forum software there's no "drastic" difference. Sections, messages in sections, people reply to the messages.

 

Because PC display monitors have such higher resolution, if PriusChat didn't take up more screen resolution, they would be "wasting" the unused portion of your screen.
