    I think it will take a tiny bit getting used to, and then will seem perfectly fine.

    A few things, I agree with maxie, I want it to default to the page you are on in the quick navagation, instead of having to scroll through all of them.

    Also, why is it when a post is quited by someone, there seems to be a very large gap between the top of the post, and where text actually shows up?

    Like this. Big gap from the top to all the way down here.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My first thought was that the primary colour tone is not red enough...it's too burgundy. I feel like I'm on a Washington Redskins site...which may be fine for maxiep, but... :devilwink:

    For the record, it's also the color of both Colgate and the U of C. And it be accurate, it's more maroon than burgundy and certainly not cardinal.:devilwink:

    Purple and gold? Just kidding. It should be more red, I agree.

    +1 on the "quick nav" button. This may be waaaay too much work, but maybe a sorter by page views? So if I hit the Blazers, Blazers OT, Mariners and Seahawks forum, those 4 pop up highest on the "Quick Nav" page? Over, say, Arsenal soccer or somethiing.

    Weird. Mine puts a large gap before the post. Is this happening to anyone else?

    I think it's related to the size of the user bit on the left. It seems like the post part on the right is the height of a poster's name/avatar/etc. on the left, and then the signature starts.

    Hmm,not sure what that means exactly. User bit? it only happens on quotes.

    See attached image. vb4 uses table-less CSS to do everything, and it appears they've got this bit messed up. I'm looking at it.

    You don't have an avatar making it taller, and you don't have a signature. So it's not as obvious with your posts...

    Looks good. I like the color scheme. Dark is definitely better.

    I'd like the thread topic fonts to be a little bigger but other wise it's an improvement.

    Also, could you make the background in my posts flash in a strobe-light effect and my posts scroll across the screen in 32pt. font? Thanks!

    Man, I'm all sorts of confused. I rtied taking a screen shot, but it's apparently too big to upload. When I quote one of your posts, it shoves it down, and starts below your image, and when I quote one o fmine, it does the same, to below my "image", but when you quoted me, it still started along the same height of a normal looking post, as opposed to below your avatar there.
