The main thing is that the reply button is really hard to find. I couldn't find it when I first signed up here and could only see the "quick reply" box until it was pointed out where the actual "reply" button was. I'll have to open in another browser and see if it appears that small there. Just seems a bit obscure.

Just did try Internet Explorer and no warnings tnere...here's the Firefox sceenpic--strange! [wtf.gif] but no real concern.

Guys, we are trying something new. Can you make sure that you clear your cookies/cache and see if those code lines disappear for good?

Keep me posted!

Is there anyway to space between the header in a post and the actual post? It's often difficult to read..or to know where to start.

Example: this is the way it is now....

Could it be defaulted this way:

Post Re: First single "Ghost Town" Discussion
(insert space here)

1) still getting the messages, I am on Mac/Chrome..

2) but as I mentioned before, the worst for me is the impossibly tiny font in REPLY/QUOTE box.

3) links DO NOT default to a new tab, they open "in place"

1) And you DID clear your COOKIES and HISTORY, right?

2) I'm not sure why that is happening to you, because the font size in replies is HUGE!

3) Most links DO default to a new tab, except for 7 specific sites - we're trying to find a solution to that. The 7 sites are: Facebook, Google+, Instagram, iTunes, Soundcloud, Twitter, Youtube

I like the header and over all look. But is it possible to change background colours? With bad /blurred sight is it kinda difficut to use this board because of bue colour. I mean blue background and blue lines -> black lines between posts and forum section

Love this forum :)

The overall look is great...but I'm gonna agree with Nica. The font is too small in the posts. I think we had that issue with the original board and Marie increased the font size default. Can that be done again??

I find I have to CTR ++ to make the pages readable, but that enlarges the screen and spreads out the page so I can't see the quote/edit buttons without having to scroll over.

This is weird, I keep reading that the font is too small when posting. When I go to post, my font is HUGE....and then looks fine when I submit my post.

Strange.

Question for those of you who say the post reply font is too small... Is the banner on top fully visible, including Adam's picture on the right? Or does your 'board' get resized to be small to fit it all in?

We're trying to pinpoint why a few of you seem to be having this problem.

Also for those of you still having issues with the code lines on top, go the Forum Index, scroll to the bottom and "Clear board cookies".

Vampfever has received an answer from a mod at the software site forum saying that the coding at the top was a server issue and it should be fixed.

Yes, the banner's fully visible and there's even an empty space next to Adam's head on my right. But the font size in the Reply box is teeny.

OK, so that's what the problem is... The banner should run across the whole top, like this... That's what your screen is supposed to look like...

What are you using to get on the board? Laptop? iPhone? iPad? And which browser are you using.

No problem...the banner is fully visible...except it ends short of the right side and there is a white box there...which is the box that is suppossed to be over his head. Problem is it's when reading the posts after they've been submitted....and when entering in the reply box. The print is sooo small that I need to increase my screen (zoom in) to 125% and then I lose the right side.

I'm on my laptop...windows 8/Chrome.

My banner doesn't go across the whole top but I have no problem with the font size.

But the errors at the top of the page have now disappeared after clearing the cookies from the board like you suggested above.

Which is where the problem stems from... I get that on my iPad and the board is shrunk down...

We're trying to figure out how to make the banner 'shrinkable/expandable' to accommodate any apparatus.
