    Even I think the balance is superb, just hope it never makes it to post responses.

    It suits the main forum browsing, but i like all my concentration for writing responses than having lots of articles presented to go and read.

    On the main forum pages its made me read more articles already.

    Shame, I'd quite like it in the subscribed threads section

    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    We're going to leave it more or less as it is for now.

    I've tweaked it to work at 800x480 (i.e. eeePC res) and shouldn't have any major rendering issues in up to date non-obscure browsers.

    We may change the way it integrates when we do another code rollout soon.

    Hmmm it's still not supposed to overlap like that.

    Wish I that version of Firefox handy.

    Re: Whoa, whats happening?!

    I'm afraid I'm having a slight issue with the new forum layout, even ater pressing ctrl F5. I'm guessing the new box that been added isnt meant to overflow like it does? I really like the idea, perhaps would it be possible in future revisions to select particular section of the site from which to grab stories from ??

    Screenshot of issue below. I'm using opera 9.5 with a resolution of 1980 x 1200.

    Well the idea is to load up channel, general discussion, bargains etc then load up in different tabs the stories that interest me. With a large resolution and a fully maximized browser it works very well

    No that's about what I expected it would do in that kind of circumstance. That's an insane monitor resolution to be not running your browser windowed.

    I don't have a need usually to be constantly changing what music i'm listening to/ constantly checking email so therefore I just focus web browsing hence having it fully maximised. When I'm on msn I do have a 50/50 split though.
