About the new forum
I make your post count 6,923 PP, to which I've now changed it.
Everybody else'll have to wait...
Thanks Mr/Ms Admin - I've tried different combos to no avail.
Cheers, John.
Evertime I try to upload the avatar it comes up as "SERVER ERROR" and below and says "Apache Server at www.whathifi.com Port 80". Not sure whether that's significant or not. Please advise.
Cheers.
Try making the file name have no spaces and only lower case.

As in...?
Not something I've encountered, I have to say. JD?
Casting my "printers eye" over the layout, I find the forum to be lop-sided - it doesn't flow as well as before. Looking down I find the original poster and the last poster next to each other, whereas before the OP was directly underneath the title of the thread. Not a huge problem - and in a couple of days I may adjust to it - it's just an observation.

Way to bright as in the white background.
Perhaps the reloading and strobing is my end, have you downloaded the new iPad operating system yet Andrew?
The white background is exactly the same as the white background on the old site, and yes I have tried the site on four different browsers on the iPad, and it seems fine to me.
Just tried to post a new thread in the "Off Topic" section and it vanished. What is happening?
Is that the gated communities one? It's there, I just replied to it.
I think the new forum seems to cache more heavily than the old one, if something isn't there I find holding shift when refreshing usually makes it appear.
Even in the last version of the site, it took a short while for new posts, deleted posts and the like to feed through to the 'latest posts' listing.
Yes but that could be measured in seconds, this is more like minutes sometimes it seems.
Based on extensive usage, I don't think it's appreciably slower, but will add it to JD's ever-growing list. Somehow I don't think it'll chart in the Top Ten at the moment...
EDIT: I make that just over a minute.
It's two minutes...
Which is perfectly adequate: have to admit I was timing it by looking at the 'pooter clock, not actually with a stopwatch or nuffink...

I am sure you are right Andrew, but the fact remains it is a lot brighter than it was before. It was the first thing I noticed after the switch over..
Wow this is a shocker, it,s like crashing your pc and then booting up on safe mode, looks kind of strange to me, i hope i get used to it. Lost my sig though.
