Default New Share Your Shot format?

How does everyone like the new SYS format? Please share your opinion so the mods can see what's going on. Personally, I prefer seeing everyone's posts in one shot, regardless of the subject matter.

It require to much navigation, in my opinion to get to new threads, and you basically don't know what you're missing.

...just my two cents.

Right now I don't care for it that much. I don't think the archives section is running correctly yet. Also, I often post two or more images that most likely belong in different categories. I hope that doesn't mean I have to split them up and make sure I put each one in the correct sub-forum. I'll just wait and see how it works out.

Excellent point, Mike. I didn't even think about multiple pics of differing subjects. Hopefully, it'll get noticed. Thanks.

I agree totally Jim - the multiple sub-forums that we now have to navigate is just going to accelerate my onset of carpal tunnel syndrome!

In all seriousness though - I realize our mods are doing this to attempt to improve the site and its general navigation etc, but I feel that's better applied to the other regions of the forum, not SYS. Like Mike says too, often we're posting a few pics of different categories too.

We all knew the SYS section of DPS was getting bigger , but this change was so unexpected, I grew accustomed to the old format and was always able to find the posts I was interested in. Right now I don't care too much for the new format. It'll definately take some time.
