G-d willing, we will be doing a major upgrade at about 1 AM Eastern time. Our English web site and forum will be down for a while. The down time could last up to several hours.

This will not affect our Hebrew web site and forum.

Thanks for letting us know. I'll be at work anyway but I'm glad the site is so well-maintained now

Hopefully this will help us defeat the OJoker.

WOW!!! Great job!

It seems there are spammers already.... What is up with that?

http://jtf.org/forum/index.php/topic,59703.0.html

Also it seems to have forgotten which messages I have read and which are new... Are you sure that the upgrade is complete?

muman613 · « **Reply #6 on:** February 09, 2012, 03:48:33 AM »

Is there anyone out there? The forum is being massively spammed and everyone is asleep...

Any moderators out there? This is going to get ugly by tomorrow morning...

IsraelForever · « **Reply #7 on:** February 09, 2012, 03:58:21 AM »

I spoke too soon. The spamming is now outrageous. Also, under everyone's name, I see Red X's instead of whatever is supposed to be there. They may be pictures or text, but I don't know.

Okay, I'm sure the kinks will be worked out, G-d willing.

It has been fixed.

It looks great!

Thank you, Chaim and Shlomo, for all your hard work.

I like this new fresh page. It looks very crisp and very nice on my screen good work Chaim and Sholmo

Shlomo · « **Reply #11 on:** February 09, 2012, 04:02:37 PM »

Sorry we were down for a few minutes. I had to reboot the server for the new updates.

Wow the site looks great... I have only started to look around however my first impression is that I am going to like what I see... I checked in around 4am this morning and saw the early stages... Chaim and Shlomo were hard at work setting things to rights... Once again our forum is on the cutting edge with a bold new look... Great work as always Chaim and Shlomo.

muman613 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 09, 2012, 05:21:41 PM »

I still like the old look... I am not one who likes changes. But all in all the forum is usable and looks good.

Well as long as it looks good and is usable we are good to go...

In my opinion it looks and runs great!! In today's world we move forward not backwards

Rubystars · « **Reply #15 on:** February 09, 2012, 08:06:24 PM »

I like the new look! It seems like everything is easier to read now.

Kahane-Was-Right BT · « **Reply #16 on:** February 09, 2012, 08:08:31 PM »

I like this new, new look. Much better than the previous new look (the first orange one). I think you combined some aspects of the old look with the original new orange look to produce this new one.

My only complaint is it is very difficult to see who authored the threads. Is there a better way to display that within the context of this nice new look?

Kahane-Was-Right BT · « **Reply #17 on:** February 09, 2012, 08:10:13 PM »

Also for those of us using touch screens, could the button that says "post" be a little larger? That would help a lot.

Ephraim Ben Noach · « **Reply #18 on:** February 09, 2012, 08:44:04 PM »

Great new look! Is the timeout corner supposed to be public?

Great job, Chaim and Sholmo! Thanks!

One suggestion that I believe would boost JTF is if you can add a link on the Forum to the rest of the JTF website. Especially the area that would enable people to make financial contributions. There are some people who come to the JTF Forum without seeing the rest of the website.

Good point, I agree.
