    Hi Martin

    Looks good. I'm not a fan of the "every colour of the rainbow" look but I know you are and it's your website!

    One suggestion (and I don't really know how to do this) is to make the forum more prominent. I was a regular visitor to your site for over a year before I even realised there was a forum. And it's the best bit!

    I agree. I'm happy with everything else, but just find the right hand strip is wasting screen space that I'd rather fill with the forum.

    and Martin would rather fill it up with email tips, articles, the free tools that users find very helpful etc etc...

    :D

    (more of a future suggestion than immediate feedback) How about making some of content in the right hand float as users scroll up/down?? Obviously not all can float otherwise it wouldn't fit on the height of users' screens, but perhaps important bits e.g. the tip, could follow you up and down, instead of the blank space I see now.

    It could be MSE Darren's welcome back from honeymoon project... :D

    None of the links to the Flight Checker seem to be working, tried the right hand column one then checked the article but they aren't working either.
  • Super looking site - really professional and intuitive on what I've accessed so far, so Well Done.

    A tiny thing - if one gets your e-mail "without images" then the bits in light yellow font on the right-hand side are very difficult to make out. They're fine once you click "get images" and they come up against the green.

    Many thanks -

    As Martin has said before though, it's the same size as the space that was on the left hand side of the old site. I don't remember anyone complaining then! :undecided
    Yes, I read that. Odd! What was in that space. I can't remember it being there. Either way, an option for full screen forum would be good.
    Happy chappy
  • I've had MSE as my homepage for a month in an effort to make myself pay more attention to money and get my bank charges reclaimed. I've spent hours engrossed in the slick easy to navigate site since it changed whereas before I would often look at the home page and go off to another site.

    - but when are you going to get rid of some of the more annoying animated smilies ggggrrrrrrr I hate 'em

    Whenever I hit 'submit reply' I get an error icon in the bottom left of my browser. It doesn't seem to affect anything but thought you might want to know!
