Could someone fix this if it's not a problem.
Edit: and also, having the forum next to the menu would be cool

Murphy's law - just as we are used to the buttons,it'll be changed again,and,well you know the rest.

I come back to my fav site, and get the shock of my life!

Man that's a lot of silver. 8O

WOW... quite a change...whatabout putting the old skin as an option Cameron for those of us that take a while before getting used to change...

Otherwise, it looks very sleek and professional, good choice...
I agree. :)

Another weird thing I've noticed: If a topic exceeds 5 pages, it adds like a sub page eg "2 of 5" -> "3 of 5" etc. So in every page, there are five pages. You think this is a good thing or a bad thing?

Change is a funni thing... I hate change that is not wrought by myself... much like most people. I have however learned to ask why the change is necessary... and what will be the benefits... Just like what has been happening on NAG. Change is not always what we want.. because everyone wants something different (well almost :D).

Rules change... due to new pains developed and discovered. Often we are not happy with it... and its always nice to make suggestions. And I think its human nature to grumble a bit. But a lot of hard work went into the new forum (though I cannot see it in Mozzilla)... and I assume there will be more changes. And in a week, we will be use to the new features.. and stop missing the old ones.....


Hmmmm off my soap box I will get.... Remember...where there is no change, there is no growth....

"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Well its ok but I'd like more smilies. Not that I'd use them but I just want it.

ok no I'm just talking crap.

But what I would like is for the site to work nicely in Mozilla.

Looks good :)

At first I also thought that I was at the wrong site :?

I'm using Mozilla at the moment though, will have to see what it looks like in IE sometime.

Almost clicked the Preview button as well :oops:

Wow I sure did get a shock coming here today - I thought I'd accidentally gone to the wrong site 8O To be brutally honest, I far prefered the old style though :( Bit I guess change is needed every now and again :)

Love the look.

I saw on a forum ones that there is a quick reply at the end of each page, maybe there is a idea there.


Also how do I unselect (permantly) the "Notify me when a reply is posted" radio button?

Very annoying.
