The huge grey border on the left and right is driving me batshit.

Please set the subscribe box so its un-ticked by default, please...

Also...

* The 'settings' option isn't oblivious that's the user control panel, maybe it would be logical to have it in the users profile...:erg:
* The font size welcome section and the Forum 'bar' is too small. And the main forum font is too big.

Daveh, I noticed that the forums rows are huge if you open a forum group on its own, e.g. (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=65)

You can set it yourself, in your profile (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/profile.php?do=editoptions) settings.

That's the size I see the actual sub forums themselves in too. Dunno if they are supposed to be or not...

The little graphical quotes to the left of the "Originally posted by..." text are an entirely useless bit of clutter, and the little "View Post" button to the right of it could be eliminated by making the text itself a link back to the original post.

I agree with this. If there's going to be a gaudy quotes graphic, it could at least have matching quotes to close it.

As a partially colorblind person, I would love to have more color distinction for threads with new replies and a better marker for threads I've replied to.

I will say that the forums look much better today than they did over the weekend.
Great work, Dave.

Change the 'Default Thread Subscription Mode' to 'Do Not Subscribe'.

Turtle, can you take a screenshot of the areas you're having trouble with the colours on as they should be the same as vb3.8. I'm also pretty damn colourblind and I'm not having any trouble.

Can you also include what browser you're using in case one of them isn't playing ball and I haven't found it yet.

There has been a fair amount of font discussion already and I notice there's been some resizing, but dear god right now thread links/headers are huge.

Edit: (http://web.archive.org/web/20060219141704/www.ttlg.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=70) for comparison.

Ah, there was I looking for a tick box - David perhaps this could be changed to a tick-box or something to making it more obvious..

I'm still getting random occurrences of narrow post widths (about 40 characters max) in some posts.

They'll be fine for about a dozen or so posts, then someone's will only be 40 characters wide, making that one look like a poem or something, then it goes back to regular width for a while, then there will be another...

Weird. And it's always my own posts, 100% of the time (so far). Others, maybe 10%. Really strange.
