    The only problem I have with the new site is that loading it up takes around 20 seconds, with the screen frozen while it's loading.

    Nothing else has changed with my computer set-up. Navigating between pages, once it's loaded, is fine as usual.

    Submitting posts with hyperlinked text in them seems to be working in Avant Browser again. It must have just worked itself out given that there was no problem at MSE's end and I haven't updated any web browsers.

    The following issue is still causing me to use a 4th choice browser to submit threads on MSE though;

    The submission window in Firefox has been looking odd/greyed-out for a while now;

    I'm not sure if this is a site or browser setting issue but the submission window in Opera displays the html rather than applying the formatting like it does in IE or FF;

    The font list still isn't displaying correctly in the thread submission window in Internet Explorer 9, half a year after the forum was updated and just under 5 months after I reported the issue.

    I'm having the same problems with my font list.

    I've also noticed since the site was tweaked last time, that if I post a clicky as opposed to a full url, it says that my message is too short, which it didn't used to do before.

    Also, since the update, on two occasions, it has taken me 10 minutes to be able to log in to MSE. I get the welcome message, but then it's not registering the fact that I've logged in.

    I've also just received a PM that made it into my email inbox, but it isn't showing up in my MSE inbox.

    Cut bills without cutting back

    whereas it used to show the post title e.g

    MoneySavingExpert.com Forums
    E: 17/07 Win a Car, Holiday and £50K with Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
    Cut bills without cutting back

    altho the url displayed looks like it just takes you to the homepage, im glad to say it does actually link to the specific post you are sharing, its just that is usually covered with the E: 17/07.... detail
