Yes tooo bad it's gone, I also really liked this.
Think to confusing is a bad reason, al the popup menu are also confusing is my believe then but in this way we never get further.

Re: Prosilver redesign
It was said by a relative few that we were the only ones doing this and it was confusing...I liked it that way as well but the "compromise" was to leave the topic type icon with the functionality.

Re: Prosilver redesign
Prosilver is definitely in need of a major overhaul, but throwing piecemeal UI changes at it can be jarring, disrupts the Prosilver UI experience and is not an elegant way to truly solve or update most of its dated issues.
Many of the UI changes people keep asking for are great ideas, but not really suited for Prosilver as we know it today (it was designed pre social media era, afterall). As I keep saying, we need a new style, crafted from the ground up with new UI mechanisms in mind from the start. The goal should be to build a better, newer front end for phpBB that will look and feel like a modern forum.
Releasing a brand new and updated style is exciting, would breathe some much needed life back into phpBB and also allow all of the UI changes ever asked for here to be much more widely embraced by admins and their board's communities.
Otherwise, Prosilver may start to look like those people who keep getting plastic surgery over and over again...botched

Has an irascible disposition.
Re: Prosilver redesign
Why remove such small thing while every user since phpBB 1 is used to have such icon in all default styles to go the first unread post? I am ok with removing it in a brand new style, but not in prosilver.Sumanai wrote:Why wait 3.2 for such a small change?hanakin wrote:agreed its been that way leave as is for current theme save fixing it for 3.2

Re: Prosilver redesign
Still like the old default VBulletin 3.8 theme. What do you think to use this as creative sample for the new theme?
Re: Prosilver redesign
Because there is a large comfortable icon that does the same thing.paulus wrote:Why remove such small thing while every user since phpBB 1 is used to have such icon in all default styles to go the first unread post?
Sorry for my English.
Re: Prosilver redesign
@sumanai its a transition, leave it in 3.1 until community has a chance to realize that the imagesets are now links then remove the targeted icon in a supplemental release.
