To make it clear what the hover did: People "in the know" can recite every 3 character airport IATA code and 2 character airline IATA code out there. And they type them in with no explaination. The old forum would recognize the code and insert some HTML code into the post before publishin...
Jump to postyeah a.net UI needs a massive upgrade. It's actually old fashioned. There could be much better use of CSS3.. I would suggest a lighter theme based on White colour, that's the most widely used background, and black on white is the easiest to read. Disagree completely, the blue is what makes A.net wh...

Jump to postCould the C-Series fill a niche in HA's fleet by replacing or supplementing the 717s? The CS300 would increase capacity on the interisland routes from 123 (717) to ~130-140 per flight depending on how tightly packed Economy is.

You can't tweak a garbage heap until it smells like roses. You can, over time. Prime example is Lucky Goldstar that made crappy low quality electronics and now is one of the main electronics companies in the world, LG. Planning on taking 10+ years to "tweak" A.net? Good luck when your act...
Jump to postThe fact that someone in a position of control at DM thinks that this design can be fixed when people are PLAINLY TELLING THEM that they are leaving the site and not coming back because of the design is proof of how little the problem is understood.

Jump to postIt'd be nice if we were given some rationale for selecting phpBB. The obvious one is that it costs nothing. If that's true, fine. Mixed with that you have people not liking things like avatars, and not liking that there's not a 747 on every page. And those people are also allowed to state their opi...

Jump to postThe grey on white issue has been noted since post one in this thread, and is one of the things you can find in Issues FAQ here in Site related It's baffling that this has not been fixed yet.

Jump to postAfter 24 hours, it seems that there are far more people who are extremely unhappy with the new site than there are people who are happy with it. This reminds me a lot of the New Coke debacle back in the 80s. DM needs to handle this in the right way - restore the old site temporarily, go back to the ...

Jump to postIf it ain't broke....don't fix it....nothing wrong with the big blue screen..... why? Because the backend of the old site was one big mess of code. even the simplest fix could result in a downed site at any moment. That's why there was a need for a new design. A new backend design does not require ...
Jump to postI'll keep it brief, but I really agree that this new layout is a serious downgrade from the original site. The text is too small, there is too much white space and it is generally very hard to read/use. The front page looks like a generic placeholder site - the kind that I would immediately click aw...

Jump to postThey don't really have a commercial airline terminal to speak of, do they? Can't imagine any major airline would even consider service without one being built.
