Now that we've finished up the blog refresh, we're moving on to several other areas of the site, and up next is going to be the message board. Sometime in the next week or so, we'll be giving it a visual refresh that should bring it more in line with the rest of the site. While the blog refresh was both functional and visual, our goal with the message board is to retain all the same functionality and just change the look. We know this is something you all rely on and use every day and our goal isn't to mess that up. We're still using the same underlying software, and all of the buttons and boxes and features should be in the same place (or at least close enough you won't have to look for them). It may take a day or two to get used to the new look, but you should be able to jump right in where you left off. If we do mess something up unintentionally, we're happy to take feedback and adjust as needed.
Later on, we've also got a refreshed look for several different areas of the site planned, along with some improvements to existing functionality and new quality of life features that we're really excited about.
Here's a quick peek at the new message board:
