#4 - Link color - request a change of color when link is clicked any color suggestions?
Looks like there is a change between the clicked and unclicked now

I prefer the old look, can't we make bigger font view optional as a setting?

If the smiley abuse doesn't stop, can there be a button in the personal settings to disable smileys?

So far great- thanks for Go To Topic up top, and the color of visited links works for me.
2 suggestions:
1. Keep the title of the thread at the top of the text box- sometimes when you've reached the end of one thread and you jump to the next one by hitting the Next button, you can't tell you've actually jumped threads until you scroll down past the message to see the thread list.
2. The "Previous Message- Next Message" links at the top right of the post should be repeated at the bottom right of the post, so you can click them without scrolling up after you've read a long post. They don't need to be as large down there- I'd say the same font size as "Reply To This Message" on the same line.
3. Personally, the font size in the reply box (where I'm typing now) seems a step or two huger than needed...
(all this in Safari, where the white space up top is much bigger than Firefox, but you knew that...)
Thanks for all your efforts!

I'd like to see some sort of background on the message body to differentiate the poster info from the post. Everything blends in too much right now.
For instance, in this post everything in from the date up should have a background the same way the "Options: Reply To This Message • Quote This Message • Report" section does.
I agree but the old forum did not have this.

no, it didn't but it was less distracting:
the subject fonts were smaller and the line spacing tighter.

My critiques:
1. Font sizes are too big.
2. Font sizes are too big.
3. Font sizes are too big.
4. Too many damn smilies.

Wow. The front page font is so large, on my 15" MBP there are only the 1st 7 posts seen. Feel bad for those on a MB. Too much scrolling to see posts. I like being able to glance at the front page and not have to scroll to the the topics.

I agree with making the sig text smaller - maybe even a different font altogether. And you can definitely make this reply box text smaller.
Other than that, great job with the tweaking.

Making the fonts smaller and line spacing tighter works too.
Hey, quote boxes are back. Things are shaping up around here. Great job.
