I am happy to announce that the new skin for PCF is now running on the site.

Cool new look.

Since this topic is created, i thought i post my problem that i'm having.

The text of the site is ridiculously small. It looks like size 5 more or less. It has been like this even before we went to the "new" forums (PhP3 or whatever its called)

My PC specs:
Firefox 3
Windows XP professional.

Also, other people said they have no problem of this kind, and i'm also having no problems at my home (though home PC has FF2 on)

Any ideas as to what caused this? And no, no other website is affected like PCF forums are. Also, reinstalling FF3 didn't help.

Thx

Maybe your screen res on the PC you're currently on is fairly high, making it look small?

My first thought: " Waar de mo*r is ek nou??!!" Then I saw PCFormat but thought it was the main site. Then I saw the address bar and it showed the new URL, so I was happy again :D

Looks really good this new skin. I like it :D :D :D

Yes, my text is set to "normal" size. I tried using IE 7, and the text was at the correct size as it should.

Rusty, you fail at being funny. :roll:

To give you an idea as to what my problem looks like... Watch this:

I made this image when the older forum was still in use, but it still looks the same now. IE7 on the right and FF3 on the left.
