Forum maintenance upgrade - 02/09/08

Looks good, very smoooooooth

I have only two suggestion/problems, but it's the only ones I've come up with so far:

The little suggestion - stickied threads at the top of forum sections used to have a different coloured background, which was really helpful to pick them out (yes, I know they're at the top, but it separated them from the new posts below really well). Any chance of getting something similar?

The bigger problem - I'm on my mums laptop with a 15" screen and the 'notice' at the top has got offset waaaaaaay to the right by almost a full screen's width.

Cant get the member map to open, is it just me

What the f...... how the f....... where the f.......

Oh man ............


Gonna take some getting used to this ..... doubt i can leave it open all day at work with those big shiney cars / logos new post things...

The stretching to full screen width is a little odd..........
Not convinced on the side bar thing either ..... but it'll probably grow on me ..


Not knocking it at all .... obviously a number of people have put a lot of work (unpaid it should be noted!) into it ... and i'm sure once i'm over the shock .. it'll be like second nature to me again ..

That's because the link doesn't work yet...

Bright, but very nice. Some very nice new touches!

not bad!

Yeh i'm a twat i started a thread in General Off Topics

The auto image resizing doesnt work but I bet you guys know that

The stalker in me prefered the 'user is online now' bright line as opposed to the small icon. I guess this is more inline with other forum setups. I only ever saw that on SCN.

Not any more... It's in this thread somewhere now.

Going to take a bit of getting used to...... my first reaction was to try and change the skin back to the old format !!!

Will keep you guys posted on any bugs I find

But I reckon it's pretty smart

"Mark forums as read" is missing from the bottom set of links..

Anyway that we can make the posted text / user name display a smaller font size (looked in control panel) .. the same size as the text size in the quick reply box would be nice ?

Phew! I was gonna put it in the Mk1 Leon Section with everythin else, but someone will leave that for someone else to do! LOL

Wow different for sure.

As above doubt i could leave it open all day at work, Might have to do some work now though.

Well done guys need to go get used to it now.

No it's in there somewhere. I can't remember who started the thread, but it's in there.

wow...11 members looking on this one thread...most ive ever seen!!! new look must be doing something!

Maybe I'm imagining it but I think some people avatars look a little pixelated now? Are they bigger or something. Mine seems ok but I dunno

Maybe it's all in my head lol.
