vBDownloads

I have to say that I don't like the vBDownloads a bit as it has no image for the item to be downloaded. Can we have the old days back?

Please give Jason some time to re-add the images.

Plus this version is more secure.

vbdownloads: thank you!!!!11

a big thanks goes out for the new download section. Its a vast improvement. One question though, in the search results, is there to change the search results order? as in be able to click on say the heading "uploaded" and sort the results in upload order?

I have to say that I do not envy Jason at all.
I had to go through a similar process with Zealot when the platform was changed.
I wish you the best of luck with it!!!
My fingers are crossed that all goes well!!!

Like the new page, not too keen on the pop up ads. Will suffer in silence.

With exception of no pictures, I beginning to like it. The adds help to keep the forum going financially, so I understand that part.

An alternative is to have an ad blocker on your browser. I use chrome and ad-block, so all I see in the downloads section is a countdown after clicking download.

Pictures in place before should be ported over soon.....Jason is still working on thar bit.

I didn't even know there were pop-ups. my blocker must of caught them.

It is a much better download system. my only wish list now is to be able to sort the results by date,

An observation.
I am opposed to change for changes sake, but I appreciate we have to move with the times. I have noticed that two of my recent uploads are not listed and are not available as downloads anymore.
Question.
If this is the case, do I have to upload them again or are they waiting somewhere to be added? If they have gone missing, then how do I upload them again? I can't find the button for adding files.
For my tuppence worth, I am finding the new section rather frustrating and therefore I am none too keen, but I suppose it will grow on me.
Cardist.

P.S. What the hell does the vB stand for? Someone already asked this question and it has not been satisfactorily answered!

Well I kinda like the new layout and like cardist I hope I did it right still awaiting for my latest design to show up in the download section
I'm missing "my files" part so I can see what I've up loaded etc

When every thing is sorted perhaps maybe a tutorial on how to up load files and thumb nails
