Ah. I meant that now they are good. Before they were all lined up like preschoolers - big spaces and random gaps. Now they all lined up like soldiers - very neat and tidy.
The larger post text is good. Much easier to read.
The extra chunky username text is a bit ... er, chunky.
Don't much care for smileys, whatever the colour. Anyone know of a smiley "shoot'em up" application - like that cockroach thing, click on em and "spat!"
All in all there seems to be less on the pages, which is more (good).

Just some comments
Still getting the "[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]EN World is closed for software upgrades until Sunday evening. [/font][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The chat room is still open." page when I follow my link in that I've always used.[/font]
The default font is still very small unless I change my browser setting to ignore the font size specified by the page.
The grey text on dark grey background in the lighter grey box in the reply screen is . . . odd. The lighter grey box contrast is just a bit too stark.

Thanks PC, I'll give that a try at home tonight. Everything seems to be fine here at work.Piratecat said:Re the dark box - see my suggestions in this thread, and see if that helps.

Some of the things I like...
Not having a "new thread" icon when reading a thread. The number of times I've accidentally hit "new thread" when I wanted "reply to thread" is rather frightening. This handles the problem nicely.
Not having an "edit" button unless I can legitimately edit a post. Again, there are lots of time I've accidentally clicked "edit" when I meant "reply".
Not having a line of icons underneath each thread reply. The new look is much cleaner and nicer to read.
Some of the things I'm not so keen on (and I guess that these could still just be awaiting tweaking of CSS) ...
Bold unread messages in forums. I feel that I'm being shouted at a little. I preferred the previous, subtle way in which you were informed about whether or not you've read a thread.
So, more good than bad so far!
Cheers
