When you click on the big logo you get all the options above. Not picking on you. ^^

I agree

Actually vb3 grey and purple are vb default styles, and not written for vb.org
they're just here, in case someone likes the default ones.

If we'd change them then they wouldn't be default anymore

Exactly the same is true for the other styles with the navbar

Not pointing out the obvious ^^

Xenon, both the vb3 grey and purple "default styles" as you call them have the navbar on every other page of the site. They are missing on the site home page only.

You know it would take about ten seconds to fix this problem instead of trying to invent wacky justifications that simply make no sense.

In any case, I am through. You can all do what you want.

Regards,

Matt

Well, you may have not understood what i said in the first answer by myself:

We have added the vb3 default navbar to the portal once and it looked horrible, so we've removed it again.

As most styles have their own little navbar as well, this isn't such a problem, and everyone can come from the Portal to the Forumhome and even to the user cp, so it's no need to clutter it more than nessesary.

If you feel different about that, that's up to you, but it is definitelly nothing to "fix" as nothing is broken, it's working as designed.

Personally, I think it's a pain in the backside having to go

www.vbulletin.org (portal) > Forum Home (via logo) > New Posts

It would be mouch better IMO if there were a new posts link on the portal like at vBT. It just saves time and wasted clicks.

TBH I'm not planning on changing my style as the other ones just ain't vB.org to me and with the default on vB.com, the vBT style there and the purple here I can tell instantly which site I'm looking at.

If a new(-ish) member was using the purple style and ended up on the portal then they could get pretty much stuck.

Try and get to the last post made in vB3 code mods - admin tools from the portal using purple skin and without clicking on the logo once.

Count the clicks.

Even I can forget the simple task of clicking the logo when I'm having a blonde day (and I have a few )
