I had the new version but as soon as I clicked 'log on' it switched back!

Same here, thankfully. I wouldn't want to put up with the new and 'improved' version long term.

I have gone back to the old version but I used to have the site fill the whole screen, now it is just a skinny bit in the middle, how can I get it back to fill the page like it used to? the only option I can see is the old and new version not on the view/layout? I have struggled all day with it, any ideas much appreciated, thanks

Have you tried just pressing 'Control' and '+' at the same time? I don't know if this will achieve the result you want. If not, press 'Control' and '-' to zoom out again.

I don't think you can.
At least, I haven't (so far) read any successful suggestions in response to those complaining about it in threads on other boards.

That would effectively expand both the horizontal and vertical (and increase the character size, which might be an improvement :whistle: in view of the designer's :mad: strange choice of font).

As I understand it, bertie200 just wants to expand things horizontally - to fill all the white space left at either side.

thanks for the replies, yes I have tried everything, but nothing works, the way it looks now it very hard to pick out the end dates, I guess I am stuck with it, still preferable to the new look but not as good as it was !
