There are some refreshing changes, and as we all know some growing pains expected ..
Some further tweaking, i've noticed:
DXP, when a user first clicks on the message board listing, is there any way to get rid of the huge white "dead space" on the top of the page? i find the long scroll-down a bit awkward. i know you have an advert box and such to the right. However, would it be possible to either make the advert box horizontal instead to save on all that space, or perhaps linking or locating it to the very bottom of the message board page.
About background colours; if i'm not mistaken, i could've swore the bg colour/design you chose for your profile background would auto-superimpose as your own personal "forum" bg, upon user log-in. Is this still a possibility? In case other people didn't know, this would automatically give you any bg you wanted on the forum for yourself or just the plain white. (it would be nice to have profile bg's visible (option), and forum bg's of course only you would see.)
As before, could we still have the links "change colour" upon clicking? I find it's a nice way to keep track of posts & forums visited.
*i'm assuming and hoping you're bringing back the *hide message* button to all the boards, or something similar. =)
i really like the larger avatars, quote-tag, wider page and the text font is clear and nice size!
That's all i can think of for now .. Thx!
************ Current bug, i've noticed as of today:
When previewing a *New Topic* you've made, the previewed text suddenly disappears/deletes itself from the First Post box. So then, you have to repeatedly (repaste) your full text back into the box, if you want to make changes.
Update: the "preview New Topic" seems to be working for me now, so maybe there's a possible glitch with *longer posts or repeated previews, will keep an eye.
