New Format Navigation

Hey Yotatech!!
The tech guys have given the members another Christmas gift early. Check out the new forum navigation bar.
it uses some drop down options that helps relieve some of the clutter of the old style navigation bar. Give it a try and let us know what you think about it.
The mods have had access to it for awhile and I really like it.

It's good, I like it. Will take a little time to get used to it, with the original nav bar still available. But, can it be tweakedd so the new posts open in the existing window, or is opening a new tab/window the only way? I'll live with it, either way.

Try the symbol on the end that looks like a wi fi icon. That opens up new posts

Yeah, took a minute to find, but I got it. That works dandy. But when the displayed new post listings are clicked on, they open in a new tab/window...maybe just my settings? I do like that it jumps to the last post though.

Edit...seems to work like I want now...weird. I didn't change my settings, so...I dunno.

Dropzone, been poking around and cannot find Who's Online on the new nav bar. Is it hiding someplace? Presumably, the old nav bar will disappear at some point, correct?

On my 17" screen, the top 1/2 of the screen is either tools bars, pics, ads, or YotaTech Facebook logo taking a whole line. Is there any way to tighten up the design to use less lines?

I like it, will take a little while before I get use to it but sometimes change is good. This is just a suggestion and only one opinion but, how about moving the little camera for the 'Picture Battles' on to the new bar beside the little wifi button?
