New Forum Right Hand Side

MSE_Martin

We've launched an updated right hand side for the forum today.

The contents are mostly the same as before (though we've added a popular now tab) but we've tried to make the design more homogenous and fit better.

Hope you like it, and do please report any glitches

PS and in case you're wondering, its exactly the same size as the old one - no wider.

I actually noticed it it looks pretty, thanks.

I didn't but then I never look at the right hand side.:p

I noticed it and it makes it more obvious that the twits are taking over the asylum.
I visit the forum for the forum not for all the internal advertising on the right hand side.

If you use Firefox then some of these userstyles can be handy.

Did you notice the littel box where it says enter email address - get it!. Not so sure if I like it because if I'm asked to get something I wouldn't listen. I'll like it if it says sign up here or or sign up for more or subscribe for weekly alerts. Or may be a case that I'm not a fan of exclamation marks. The networking signs like fb, tweettie and other social bookmarkers are also not prominent Actually I am not even sure where I can find it. May be it would be stuck alongside and say: like it? share it, thanks. or something along those lines.

I like it. It has a much more professional and modern look. Slowly but surely the site is getting away from the "My first Frontpage website" feel.
