Feedback/comments (to try and help given the large amount of free time given to update the website)
The colours do seem repetitive/dull- perhaps as intended. As did old site.
I can see lots of time and effort gone in to make much needed changes but keep it like the old site - perhaps too much like the old site.
Mobile access is clearly much better. Would like to see some social media links/groups setup and perhaps a newsletter feed that can also be emailed once a month or so that you can subscribe/unsubscribe
Its early days but some areas that might need addressed or is just me not using it correctly:
You can access members are without logging in (Not that I think its necessary)
Once you log in you can search new posts but the view recent posts by date has gone (it was there at one point) - I assume most users used that search by date. When I search by date nothing come up as you need a keyword.
most of the key topics have nothing for over a year posted - perhaps a few key static topics and the rest auto archive after a while and you access that via archive pages
