my one complaint is the quick navigation doesnt just go right to what is listed (to the board this thread sits in) but has a drop down menu which is a PITA. i checked out my forum settings and i cant seem to find a tweak to fix that.

Can you give us info on browsers/OS/etc? I've tried it under several browsers under Fedora Linux 12 (Firefox 3.5.6, elinks, Chrome 4.0.249.43) and it works peachy keen a-ok. I had to dump my cookies (well, selectively hacked out the NES ones) to be able to login, but I'm back up and running.
Is it possible you did something to get your classified deleted? It is odd that a single thread would vanish...
I'm liking it now with the red, the default theme was gawdawful. Keep up the tweaking Derek, you'll win the naysayers over eventually. The bar at the top with the title, ads, home/forum/blog etc is a bit weird looking, still.
Breathe. It's change we can believe in...
And your avatar looks even better!
BTW, when is your new love interest gonna take her place?
Try not to be too harsh on me. I'll be the first to admit that I know practically nothing about how forums operate. I just had a though/idea/suggestion. If someone had a dedicated server that was able to handle the bandwidth, would it be possible to have a mirror site with the old forum layout for those that don't like the new design? Basically, everything would be identical except for the layout itself. If you post on one, it automatically will post on the other as well etc.. Is this even feasible, or would it be too much of a headache to try to maintain the two of them due to compatibilty issues and such? As I said, I may be way off the mark on this one, but I was just curious if it would work.

BTW...The text in the reply box is incredibly small...it looks to be about 6 or 8pt.

I don't mind the new look. It will take some getting used to where the buttons I used to hit all the time went. I did notice an issue with the heade/banner. There is text overlapping. It is on a laptop with a 1024x768 screen.

No real need to mirror the site. If someone wanted to take the time to develop alternate themes, they could be installed. Then each user could pick the theme they like the most. Unfortunately this is a lot of work, coding, testing, etc. Perhaps it will be considered when this theme is done.
Don't worry, I'm sure Derek and the team will have this new version tuned up and working well. The look and feel (Colors and all) can be easily changed. It just takes some time.
I will be adding different "user selectable" color schemes in the near future so you can choose how you want NES to look. It just takes a little time, I apologize to everyone for the delay.
Nothing to apologize for, this bunch just likes to complain.

Nothing to apologize for at all. The new format looks good and will only get better as Derek has more experience with it.
