Looks pretty good, except the fonts are all smaller than they were (in the forums). I can zoom in (Firefox) but then the graphics dither and get a bit fuzzy looking.

The forum listing seems a bit easier to look at - maybe a bit more contrast and sharp but, as above, the fonts are all smaller which is a little hard on the eyes.

BTW - this was my first new [quick] post on the updated software and it immediately jumped into advanced mode and is telling me I have to wait 30 seconds.

Looking into all this. Trying a quick reply now.

Edit- Quick Reply with Firefox worked ok. What are the browsers you guys are using?

I'm getting it on Firefox/3.0.5 running Vista Home Premium.


Edit: It didn't do it that time.

Chris, so far it looks great! Way to go.

Oops, maybe I spoke too fast. I made this post, then clicked the Back button to go to the listing of all New posts, but it keeps bringing me back to this thread.

Pretty snazzy, but the font size of everything really needs to be a tad bigger. It is too small to read which scrolling, even for me...

Otherwise, nice job :approve:

Also:

It says I need to wait 29 seconds before posting, but I didn't post before.

I realize that it is all the rage, the new trend, and all that, but that light blue font on a white background is simply invisible. I actually find that I visit sites less frequently that implement it because it is so difficult to read.

You are going to have to be more specific. I have no idea what you are referring to.

Hmmm. Now they are not showing up as light blue. But they are still gray and light gray, which is just not contrasty enough to be readable for me.

Personally, I have not problem reading the threads. However, I wouldn't disagree with AKAJohnDoe. My first impression was "it's much brighter now". But, it's really the mostly lighter grayish shades being used. It's very similar to the contrast used in Microsoft products like Word.

Please don't take this as a negative comment to the "new look". Personally, I like it. :approve:

I am fine with the overall design, just having some difficulties with the contrast.

For me, it is the same issue as reading an e-book vs a paper book. They both usually have dark type on white pages; however, the paper book is reflective light whereas the e-book generates it's own light source. The latter requires more contrast.

One other thing I have noticed, that I hope persists: I only need to log out once again. For quite awhile there I needed to log out twice for some reason. Once is definitely better.

Lets see if the reply is working in Firefox now.
EDIT: Its working fine.

The fonts are smaller now.

Maybe we could try size 2 if that is an issue? BTW, this is size 2...

EDIT: When you go to the Quick Edit feature in Firefox, it saves it, but leaves the text box open.
You have to click Cancel after you save it and then refresh to get your edit results.
