Probably not the first to mention it, but the Site's Funding link appears twice in the footer

Apart from that, love the layout. Oh, and some of the links still have the old newspro style urls... Using mod_rewrite to cover them?

Firstly, thanks for the new site. It looks great and is a big improvement.

On the old site each item in 'chat' had the subject at the top of each page. This has disappeared. Can we have it back please?

Regards,
Art.

I know its a big job and you have done really well doing it in just one evening. Site looks good overall and is working better. The only problem i have encountered is that sometimes the smilies dont appear and its just a box with an X in it. I dont think this is my computer as it worked fine on the old version and also about half the time on the new one just sometimes they arnt there. Dunno why this is but its not a major problem and the site has definatly improved. Well done:T

I tried a search in the forums, looking for info on CW Client. I entered "CW Client" to make sure. I got a large list of things but none of them appeared to have a great deal to do with my search!!
Certainly nothing on the first 25 hits - the first page - seemed relevant! The very first hit was all about a hotel in Paris with an outdoor pool, with only 5 posts on it, none of which had cw client in them!!
What was I doing wrong??
Thanks.

The search doesn't like anything with 3 letters or less which I think includes inside quotation marks so it didn't like your CW and probably only searched for "client"

it looks very nice but it now takes between 90 seconds and 2 minutes for every page to load on my computer

Just to be awkward:

Possessive forms of nouns ending in s
Singulars
* Respected sources require that almost all singular nouns, including those ending in an s, a z, or an x, have possessive forms with an extra s after the apostrophe. Examples include the Modern Language Association, The Elements of Style, The Economist, and Purdue University's Online Writing Lab. Such sources would demand possessive singulars like these: Senator Jones's umbrella; Mephistopheles's cat.

Rules that modify or extend this principle have included the following:
* If the singular possessive is difficult or awkward to pronounce with an added s sound, do not add an extra s; these exceptions are supported by University of Delaware, The Guardian, Emory University's writing center, and The American Heritage Book of English Usage. Such sources permit possessive singulars like these: Socrates' later suggestion; James's house, or James' house, depending on which pronunciation is intended.
* Classical, biblical, and similar names ending in an s sound, especially if they are polysyllabic, do not take an added s in the possessive; among sources giving exceptions of this kind are The Times, which makes a general stipulation, and Vanderbilt University, which mentions only Moses and Jesus. (Wikipedia)

ie You can choose either way, but I would normally say it as Loo-is-ez which would be written as Lewis's ! (Even though we all know that Martin ranks alongside Moses and Jesus ! :P )


P.S. I love Martin's new halo too !

i'm going to be even more awkward... that's American and they know nothing about speaking English... a.ss instead or a.rse, TomAtoe instead ot tomato, alumnium instead of aluminium, center instead of centre etc etcc
