Yep - one bug found and reported đ
But I do like the editing window over there. Easy to Ctrl-V to put in screenshots.

I found a lot of annoyances :) Will I report them - I have no idea. Yet :)
-
Same here :)
-
At least photographs on DPR are decently displayed now.
-
Don't forget to mention no threaded view đđ
-
Sure - I have got no option to switch to flat view anymore, this is serious trouble :P
-
Yes they allow for 1:1 viewing up to a certain file size (unlike the xenforo default of about 1600px long side) but the initial view looks no bigger than it was before - waste of screen real estate IMHO. Remember how much better it was here when the initial display size was increased

Having become accustomed to 'cameraderie' and 'focus world' the site is easy enough for me.
The white on black theme is easy for my old eyes, unlike here ...

It seems bigger to me. Have a look here where I've just posted a couple of pictures www.dpreview.com/forums/threads/posted-images-in-photo-of-the-week-threads-look-terrible-now-what-happened-and-exif.4820673/

Oh yeah! I was looking at a couple of older threads (which probably already had the compressed media on file). That is a lot more appropriate
-
I just remembered that in my limited macro creation there was a (perhaps esoteric) VBA function that was not available - not sure how or whether I got around that. But most of them had been implemented.
-
I was thinking I just won't post there anymore - but this morning I have created two posts! đ¨
What I do know is I won't bother reading any longer threads unless I really have a specific interest...
-
might just stick with facebook groups heading forward.
-
This will be good test of no Threaded View.

should rename flat view to "maze" view đŤŁ
-
The display of the fora wil take some getting used to.
I looked at the gallery of R6III images, and was not impressed by the inane captions (called i Details)!
e.g: "Two power poles against a cloudy sky, the blue barely peaking [sic] through."
"A person kneeling on the ground, writing in a notebook."
"A man wearing glasses laughs in a restaurant."
"A woman poses, smiling at the camera, wearing a red dress."
Are these "captions for the visually challenged" written by AI?

It's a touchy subject, apparently.
It's not A.I.
Don't know how long that will last.
