    Cannot resize text in IE. The default text size is just too big for my liking.
    Overall - really no probs. Needed a few visits to get used to it.

    I would like to see a minor change to the "quick jump" lookup box.

    Instead of just spaces to help signifiy subcategories etc, use '-' as in

    Hexus.net
    -Computer Hardware and overclocking
    -Gallery Discussion
    --Hexus Gallery

    It just makes it easier to read, IMHO.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    All in all, I think everything's fine.

    It would be nice to add a picture as an attachment to a post, say, up to 680 pixels width or something, but that does tend to fill up the server space.

    Nope, I did try hard to come up with something, but zilch

    No - that would slow down the forums to much. Attaching an image on vbulletin, actually stortes the image in the database as text - its a hugeley inneficient way of doing it, and would slow the database down wich we dont want do we?

    If it uploaded the image to the server, and then stored a link to the image in the database that would be great - but unfortunatly it doesnt.

    Good idea tho!

    unrealrocks - the settings you've changed might only affect threads you've posted in since then. I aren't sure though.

    Over the past few days I've come to love the new design.
    The only thing that niggles me is the Thread starter underneath the thread title. I don't really like that

    Other than that it's lovely! The message preview in the email reply thing is fantastic.. Don't even need to click the link to read the post reply!!
