    The 'reply to thread' screen is totally broken on an iPad - I assume this is due to the recent changes mentioned in this thread, because it was working fine a couple of days ago.
    The reply box and additional options are tiny, almost unreadable, and in the middle of the screen surrounded by blue space.

    hmm post reply is only broken on this thread. It works on others.

    I've given up using this site on my smart phone after the last changes. Can't even get into threads or turn pages or swap to new board without scrolling down yards of unrelated text.

    However, not sure what all the white space is that you're all talking about. I have white space either side of this reply box, but on the actual threads it fits neatly right across. Mind you, I am on a 10" screen netbook, so maybe that's the reason.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    I'm sure I'd get used to it eventually, but I don't like it at all - either the stretchy one (dislike it immensely) or the narrower one. It's far too in-your-face-pale, and all the posters' details are split up, rather than being in one easy-to-spot spot! You know that well-known phrase "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"? That's how I feel about it. It just feels like a shoe that doesn't fit properly - it irritates, sorry!
  • I like the new look...........

    I like it, all crisp letters and easier for me to read
    appreciate I may be a minority:)

    but you will never please all of the people all of the time

    no idea about this expanse of white but I got a little 15 in screen so maybe thats why

  • Really not keen on the new version, been using it for the last few hours. Gone back and back to using the stretchy, much clearer for me.

    I often use the site at work without logging in and hate it to be honest as its too small, busy and crammed in and I find I miss things.
    Aim to win in 2013 - a holiday somewhere nice, New York break, treats for family & friends & some cash would be lovely!!!

    It's not as easy to see which threads you've posted on either.

    This is really important.

    Nooooo! I was using the (very) old "blocky" style skin from a few years ago, and I can't change back! Only the new-look skins are listed in the settings.

    Is there any way to get this back?

    It's at the bottom of the list for me.
