IMHO smaller box for signatures is better idea.
Signatures occupying almost half of a page are quite annoying.


agreed, but I'll take it if we can have Recent Posts back in one place at the bottom...  the forums seem dead without it

GAAAAAAHHH, UGLY! The colors are bland, the thread icons are too large and make the page big and clunky, it goes on and on.

Hit active topics in the upper right corner....  can find the topics that have been recently posted in... not as 'clean' as the ten recent ones... but works better for that... not as hard to lose topics when trolls, hyenas, and RIO freaks descend upon threads and clog the '10 recent'

I'm not a troll... :(

as sorry, I though you guys mean the latest 10 posts (especially since you bragged, again, about the VR)
yes, the Active Topics is working, I just wish it to be present regardless of what page I'm at, as usual.

Ok, just found it now in the forum hopme page... when you click in a most recent post in a forum you are directed to the first page of the topic not the current active page.

I believe it's something easy to be fixed.

I still would like to see the Active Topics back... the forum looks cluttered currently, so it's not as easy to navigate.

post font size needs to be reduced. Or change font from Verdana back to Arial, which results in a smaller appearance at same size setting.

A couple of little comments:

It appears the link to read a member's reviews is gone from the profile page... Question
As for the drop-down list when clicking on "post options" or a member's name in a thread, it's always useful to be able to right-click those links and "open in a new tab." I use that function for sites all the time so that I don't have to keep clicking the "go back one page" button in my browser.

In any case, good work, M@X! I really like some of these new features Thumbs%20Up
