Update - most of the smilies are back now :j

Love the "apple white" - very aesthetically pleasing
No real criticisms at all - some folk just DO NOT like change at all :rolleyes:

Please remove the bar on the side, it is squeezing the forum and is creating so much wasted space down the side of the forum.

Apart from that it looks great and good job on the turnaround

Right, spent a brief half-hour or so this morning, and didn't really like it. Hated the bar on the right:o Been on for an hour and a bit tonight. It now feels fine:D Still finding my feet, but no complaints about colours etc. Only problem is having hit"Reply to Thread" the box is not complete I can't see the whole of the right hand column of smilies, nor the bit after spellcheck and the increase/decrease arrows. (just managed to catch a tiny bit with cursor and its switch editor mode) I have scrolled right as far as possible.

Any ideas anyone?

I notice it still says Lewis' at the top rather than Lewis's - a common mistake this one....

Otherwise GREAT!!

a very common mistake where people think you need to put the S in after the apostrophe. You don't, the apostrophe takes care of it. You can use either though.

A Quick Note On The Images

We have five front end servers, one of them is struggling to serve images well - which is why some of the images (e.g. smilies and buttons) aren't yet working perfectly.

Just chalk that one down to a teething glitch. We know about it - now all we have to do is fix it !

One more not to worry about

The breadcrumb trail at the top - we added more details after it was requested, the problem is now that if its a long name for a thread it breaks the formatting a bit. Again we know about it - just have to fix it.

I must admit, I am finding it hard as well, I am having to squint because of it and is giving me a headache.

I thought you said it was blue, so which colour is giving you a headache or has the colour changed now or do you mean the blue is what surrounds the reply box?

I use another forum that uses the green and I keep thinking I'm in the wrong one but getting used to it now

the forum is already back to Verdana (for most people, caching may mean it not happened yet for a few).

shouldnt ctrl + f5 fix that for most people (hard refreshing)

due to work :rolleyes: i couldnt play till about 6pm, been 'playing' since and overall opinion great, very user friendly and the problems i have found (stumbled across) are easily sorted

breadcrumb trail ~ hard to spot but one found its just as it was

nagigation/thingie bar ~ ---> that... love it... i hated scrolling right to see everything now you can see all the forum with no need of 'missing' everything that used to be on the left

ones not to miss ~ ---> there, whos idea is that, give them a pat on the back, i dont know if it was there before but by golly its great, i rarely visit the main page so if i miss it on email i miss it forever now however i cant can i... in theory

stat center (homepage) ~ fab nice to see the forum moving along...

green/mint/aqua ~ took some getting used too (1 hour) but love it... more calmer


overall thanks, no problems here, you have done a great job and all at mse towers should have a celebratory drink

Yeah and for me. It hurts my eyes, and I find I am just waiting for it to jump back. I have firefox too. Will it work better with somthing else?
