[martindwilson]

i find it difficult to read and have to change my brightness for comfort
is it possible to have choose-able skins?

Your statistics does not work. Or if it does, I cannot see the numbers.

The Who's Online option keeps erroring out on me!

If you click Home.. you will see general stats, in the individual forums...doesn't seem to work correctly, if at all...

I suspect that this remains a Mod specific issue NBVC...

[NBVC]

So it doesn't error out for non-Mods?

Also, before it didn't error out on me as much.. maybe once or twice a day...

[DonkeyOte]

I find it errors out a lot... perhaps someone on a non-Mod profile could confirm ?

From what I recall there is a particular section on info specific to the Mod view which I would hazard a guess is generated by a hideously inefficient SQL join leading to query timeouts.

Here's prtscr:

1st is Excel Help Forum (seems to be working)
2nd is General (blank)
3rd is post within general (blank, OK for total posts)

Also there are 2 users currently browsing forums...
I think this is wrong and I'll test it does it changes.

Edit: Seems to be OK... 1,2,3.. didn't find post with more than 3 people at the time.. But AFAIC it's OK.

Thank you Lord, I thought it's just me

[zbor]

just noticed that if the navigation bar is forced onto two lines because of smaller screen size or resizing the window, the last few items roll over into a new line but lose the blue background ....

For IE and Google chrome as well

I completely agree about the brightness. The white is blinding and makes reading very difficult. It even washes out the box lines. Choosable skins would offer a great solution!

The forum statistics column consumes almost a third of the screen but is practically empty. You see only blank space on the left side. Maybe that info can be placed at the top or bottom, so that the left margin doesn't go to waste.

[zbor]

Is it possible to have [solved] button in first post so it can be eaisly marked when solution is provided?

[StephenR]

I think it's a great improvement in many ways - it's much cleaner and neater. My only point would be the one already made that grey text on white is not the easiest to read, and probably a real struggle for anyone with eyesight problems. A black font would be better, perhaps on a pale background, or, even better, alternatives as suggested above.

I like the new design in general, but for the sake of us seniors, who do not see as well as we used to, I would be in favor of more contrast in the text. Light blue and greys are nice to look at but not the easiest to read at my age.

Thanks for all the good work and the opportunity to comment.
