    I have a workaround for the name-bug. Hold down your CTRL button, and then use the scroll-wheel of your mouse to decrease the size of the font on the screen. It looks as if the bug is caused by the navigation tabs pushing the username down one line. I'll see if I can figure out an elegant solution. In the menatime, decreasing the font as described ought to do the trick..b

    Me too Lerp! :D

    Oh, and to Peter ... there's a portion of my avatar name behind the search thingy where I can access my drop-down menu, so I'll live with it until you can sort out a resolution to this ca-ca! :)

    And to RAZER ... I don't see your avatar name anywhere, unless I'm missing it. It might be hidden behind the search bar. Look at my pic again to see what I'm talking about.

    I am - as we speak - about to change all the styles (redo them all). So let's see where that gets us :)

    Oh Cool ... maybe that will help as well. You guys are just too AWESOME as forum owners, love it. :)

    MS9, my name is there at the top right corner. It does disappear when I click the search bar, but thats no problem.
    So as far as I can see I do not have any problems.

    Ok RAZER, thanks for sharing ... something is wrong somewhere, and I'm hoping that it gets sorted out one way or another, whether it's on my side or otherwise. Perhaps with Lykke changing the skins it will work better.

    It looks like typing in a new post is now the Verdana font style, which is AWESOME, but when you submit the reply, it shows up the other font again. :( ... guess you might be working on this

    Ok, am I missing something, or don't we have a private messaging system hooked up yet?
    If this turns out to be operator error, then I'm blaming it on the time of the morning it is. :p

    EDIT:

    I think I figured it out, not sure, but I'll know when I get a response, or if someone other than the intended recipient gets the message ... LOL.

    PMs are called Private Conversations. They can be found right next to the alerts (to the left of the alerts) under inbox.

    We have been working on creating new styles, which we hopefully will be able to launch soon. The reported problem with editing a post making the recently edited post disappear should be solved when that happens. We have isolated that to the specific styles we have, and as such are rewriting them from scratch, while taking the suggestions regarding colours into consideration :)

    Thanks Peter, appreciate the feedback. However, I see no "inbox" label at all to the left of the alerts (when I get them). The "Search" bar covers my avatar name except for a small portion at the beginning which I can access to get at the pull-down menu, but I see nothing else my dear Admin.

    I noticed all of this was the same on my laptop as well, and I'm using the IE that came with it. I have XP on my desktop and Win7 on the laptop, and use the Firefox browser on the desktop, so not sure what is causing all of this stuff to happen.

    Also, not sure what is causing the Verdana font to convert back to what the default was after submitting a post.

    I'm sure you'll get it all sorted out, I'm still lovin' the new environment a LOT. :)
     
  12. If it helps any I am getting the same thing as Mindstar, the search box is covering my name, inbox....etc. I am using Firefox 4.0.1 on Windows 7 Ultimate. I am also getting a different font in the reply to message text box then what is showing in the thread itself.

    On another note, why when I click on the "Whats New" I am getting over 10 pages of threads that are not new since the last time I signed in?

    Softhart, somewhere in those pages is the line

    Threads below this have not been updated since your last visit but have unread messages.

    and I had to view a lot of pages again to to get them of the list, once you have done that is should be OK from then on.
     
  14. Ok, I see the line. Thanks Razor :)
     
  15. Why is everything so big?

    Yes, that would be my question, especially with the width of the forum, it's way too wide, but that's about all the big stuff issue I would have with the forum though.

    I have a feeling though, that it will all get sorted with time as Peter and Lykke can work more on the forum. I know that right now they have a lot going on with their home with electricity and construction, so they're a bit challenged at the moment.
     
  17. It has do the length of the username. People that have 4 to 5 characters for the username doesn't see this problem. I'm sure other people that have long usernames has this problem as well. I'm having this problem as well. I discussed this with Lykke and she already knows what is causing this problem.

    WhooHoo ... the search bar stuff is fixed ... YEAH ... I can see everything now! :wavespin:
    Thank you, thank you! :)

    As said earlier - we're working on the things taking everything (hopefully) into consideration.

    What happens with the long names is, that it pushes down the 'profile nav bar' to the second nav box container. When that happens, the search box will go in over the tabs and the name.

    We are re-making the links in the navigation bar and are trying to collect some of them in one drop-down. That will make more room in the nav box for long names too (we hope).

    That will also make room to make the forum a little less wide (hopefully), because at this moment, it's not possible because of all the things we offer in the navigation bar.

    When some says 'big' do you mean the forum itself, the pictures or fonts?

    Thank you for the understanding and patience.
