I don’t like the fact that when you go into your profile to view your recent posting history, it defaults to the Site’s recent posting history - not yours. Yes, you can then drill down into your posting history from that page, but AG are just adding an unnecessary step.

Also, the bleached colors and loss of the classic yellow color scheme means for me, Audiogon has lost its "feel". I actually had to turn down the brightness on my monitor as the bleached white interface was too much.

A big + 1 to all the other members who lamented the fact we still can’t post photos/images like most other high end forums. The site has taken a leap forward maybe one generation, but it aint there yet.

Other than that, no issues so far. Though I haven’t tried to sell any gear since the new platform launched.
I really don't see the logic of clicking on 'My forum threads' and having 75% of the screen taken up with other members activity, with a small box in the top RH corner devoted to yours. To me, 'My forum threads' should be exactly that. Or else maybe re-name it 'All member's forum threads'..

View My Activity should probably be changed to View Activity. Only one of the options relates purely to your posts. I suppose My Posts and My Threads could be added at the 4th and 5th options in View Activity, but once you know where to find those, it is pretty easy to get do.

Under Recent Activity - My Threads you see the threads that you have participated in that have had recent activity. Recent Activity and Unanswered are not specific to you.

If you want to see just your responses or just the treads you started you can click on your username (upper right) and go to My Profile.. One option shows you the thread you have posted in, the other shows threads you have started.. You can also get to those lists by clicking on your username in a thread. You can click on either Discussions Started or Responses.
It is making sense now. Your posting history is now easier to track & I like the fact you can unsubscribe from threads (which was a bug bear of mine with the old system).

Would love to later see further functionality added incl: the ability to post images/photos & like or say "thank you" for posts & atleast restore  the link to your system thread in posts, if not add the ability to post a Signature.

GLWT changes A'gon.
