In my opinion, since I use a desktop, the forum layout went from an A+ to around a C.
I understand the dilemma. CU wants it to look good on an i-phone, which I guess on that it was below par. Probably for the cost of the software, it cannot look equally good on both devices.
quoted above is the comment(just used this for an example), below is how it reads on the new layout. Your eyes have to search to find the comment and the whole white background is giving me a headache, I feel like I just when to the eye doc and got my eyes dilated.

This is bad. The old system you could easily navigate to other PCGS pages and links. Now I have to open them in new tabs. Looks like someone at CU was sold a bag of BS.

Chances are, the host of performing an update to the forum back-end and the PCGS skin didn't load back. So what we're seeing is the default view.
Another issue here is the deafening silence from PCGS. They should acknowledge the posts in this thread and explain how they plan to address the issues.

There was a post by PCGS in one of the other complaint threads.
Who remembers the day these boards were not even available? We only had newspapers and magazines. No computers. No nothin'. Now, thanks to the voluntary death of dinosaurs thousands of years ago, we have oil that powers our generators and our homes. It wasn't long ago, back in the 1930s, only one household in three had a bathtub. Back in the 1950s, no household had a computer, and the TVs were in black and white.
Now we have it all, and we complain that a beloved forum was slightly changed to keep up with the current times?
We need more gratitude and less rancor.
I don’t know. I’m reserving judgement. Your sigline takes up most of the page on my iPhone.
It will surely limit my participation. But that’s a good thing.

This new format is painful to navigate and read. The more I use it, the more I dislike it.

It is not good, it's bad, unsure why hosts made this change.
Seems ill conceived.
If you going to make a change, why not add the "disagree" emoji?
Hopefully the developer hasn't cashed the check yet. There may be time to cancel it.
Yup. Awful.
Now listen boy, I'm tryin' to teach you sumthin' . . . . that ain't an optical illusion, it only looks like an optical illusion.
My mind reader refuses to charge me. . . . . . .
I just noticed that while writing a post, there's a blue edit button under the post. It is blue, as if active, but clicking on it does nothing.

I hope you are correct.

I guess the advantage of being gone for 5 years is I can't remember what the old site looked like...lol

This site now has all the look
and feel of a site that ONLY runs by inserting a pirated AOL 3.5” diskette into an IBM 386.
Other passions include golf, Moto Guzzi motorcycles, and Euro motorcycles in general.

Thought i had a good thing until they found them 2 ware houses full of them 😭

This on a PC is like driving a Corvette for a few years and then getting handed a VW bug.
There always seems to that one who goes against the grain in most groups who likes to stir the pot, even when there is nothing in it to stir.
