    Hi folks,
    Want to switch back

    While this is the default view, if you preferred the old view you can switch back to it, provided you're a logged in (registered) user.

    To do that go to your User CP using the link at the top of the page. Click on Edit Options. Scroll down, find the Forum Skin drop down menu, and select MSE V1 from the list. Finally press the Save Changes button.

    I don't appear to have that option. I wanted to try it to see if it sorted out the painfully slow page load times (System Admin in real life, so testing strategies are automatic!), well over a minute per page before the maintenance shutdown. Still taking over 20 seconds now and seems to be slowing down with each page change...

    On the plus side, looks OK, if a bit green and more spaced out that before. :)

    Looks more modern, cleaner - not sure about losing the bold from "this user has been thanked...", but maybe I'll get used to it.

    Its still verry slow as others have said, but why has everything gone unneccassarily big, so that one or two posts now only show on a page??
    My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely.

    my icons and smilies
    > are overlapping with the blue columns (the "email" and "latest MSE news" bits), but not sure if that is because I am on a netbook?
