What is the EXPAND/COLLAPSE meant to do anyway? It doesn't seem to do anything at all, even with Javascript turned on.

More importantly: using Flash buttons for basic navigation links? That is just plain wrong.

On the whole no problems with the new look, except your no longer able to open forums in new windows from the home page, something that was useful for a quick glance!

how did u get windows xp to look like that in the screendump?


For all those asking via PM and on here, I'm using the "Royale" theme from Microsoft. Download a copy from here - read the "read me" file first as it contains instructions on how to install. This is an official MS theme so there is no need to install any patches or replace system files in order to be able to install it.

I'm all for a refresh, but IMO this make its harder to use. I really miss the drop down forum box, and the front page lines look ghastly on my monitor and makes it all harder, for me, to read. As well as the prementioned huge gap thing.

I do like the new menu, mind you I rarely use it unless changing something in my profile. But please change the back ground on the main page, why not have various large squares like the header? Also for me it doesn't loop properly either.

Sorry to sound negative if you've taken lots of time on it.

EDIT: Also just nocited, as the indavidual forums on the main page are flash and not a button, I can't middle click them to open in various tabs... ooer.. Any chance of having them hyperlink rather than flashlink?

The moderators have had the new look for a few weeks now. You will get used to not having the drop-down box on the right. I have.

I actually quite like it - looks a bit more stylish than the last one.

I agree the menu is nice, just as long as no user on here uses Opera!

I agree the Flash buttons are unnecessary - but can't you middle-click the links in the new-style menu?

Indeed, but I do have a sence of "if it ain't broke.."
