I'm starting to get used to it now, although when I first looked at it I thought I had the wrong pair of glasses on (and I don't even wear glasses).
Everyone seems to be saying it's much better so I'll put my faith in their superior knowledge and say thanks for all the work you guys must have done this week.

The images are now going via a proxy, which is needed if for the site to appear secure to browsers. That can cause problems, but it looks like your images are appearing now, if you're talking about the ones in this post - http://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/lifts-and-escalators.145854/page-4#post-2997127
Still working on the right permissions. It's proving more complex and less logical than hoped!

Echoing what several others are saying, the font is far too large.
I am also having the issue mentioned up the thread that the semaphores aren't changing when I've clicked on them having read what I want to in each sub forum.
Would also like the time in 24 hour format - this is, after all, a railway forum...

The mark forums read option is now in the top left hand corner. It will prompt you to mark the current section or all forums as read

Ah... thank you... so it does; pity it doesn't give me an option to mark certain sections - the ones I never read - before I go and read the others.
Oh. It said 1049 which made me think it was the morning. A move to 24 Hour Clock for that would be very much appreciated!
Subscribed threads are now watched threads in the top left hand corner.
It didn't work. It was rubbish on mobile devices, and so out of date there were security issues.
The previous software worked barely and required increasing amounts of time to maintain by the volunteer Staff Team and offered less and less functionality compared to more modern software.
Subscriptions are now known as 'Watched' click on 'Watched Threads' at the top of the page and you will find it.

I'm liking the new style, It's user friendly and very simple to use. Having same issues as others where if I click on a thread title from the list in a subforum, then it takes me to the front page of that thread, luckily there is the First Unread Button which does this!

Thanks for the hard work, still unsure about the new format, but I'm sure I will with time.
My only issue so far is that on my android phone, I have difficulty accessing subforums. Basically in portrait I have to go onto the forums, and then click through to the subforum, there being no link from the home page. In landscape I have to go from a drop down. Not a massive issue, but adds to time taken to get there and it also makes sub forums a bit less visible.

Although on chrome on my tablet the option is hidden away on that menu bar underneath '...' so isn't quite as user friendly to fast mark all threads read in certain areas where only a few threads increase me
I found that the "first unread" feature was putting me back much further. I've read elsewhere that this will be fixed over time, but I've just marked everything as read for now. As and when threads are added to, it's probably slightly easier to scroll back a few posts and pick up from where I left off.
Overall, it's looking quite good. The proof of the pudding will be when I have a look at the forum at 1.05am - will I be told that the forum is too busy?

Why remove it? It saves writing a response when when all one wants to do is agree

There are lots of reasons why and I notice this is the umpteenth post on the subject in this thread!
Instead of getting into it all here, if anyone really wants to have this debate again, why not create a new thread for it?

Font size looks spot on to me
It is, it makes the thread longer without adding anything new. A like button is much better for that kind of feedback.

For those complaining about font size, the icon pointed to by the arrow shows the option to customise the font size. https://prnt.sc/gtdpj5
