Your looking at it :)

It's very early days and we still have lots of tweaking to do.
It will get faster and easier, but we people using to know what to tweak etc.

We still have a few features and cool stuff to add, but we wanted to get the forum online
and get people using it, so we can get some feedback.

In the next few days we will start rolling out some new additions, that I know you will like :)

You will notice that we are much more tightly integrated with Facebook.

This is of course all optional, but if you're into Facebook, the forum
has some really nice features that allow you to easily login and post
info from DR1 to Facebook.

Facebook is massive and still growing rapidly, so we think this
tight integration will be a welcome addition for our users.

Now go share some DR1 love on Facebook :)

It's something visually unusual...but maybe with time it will get to me... something like new glasses ... takes some time getting used to it, even if what changed was just frame and the lens type remained the same...
for now, i see that my rep points are no longer there...how will the newbies know whom to trust now? Just a quick recall an odd guy claiming it's possible to live on 2 dollars a day on food ...
Also, have to check how my BB will format the forum...Opera Mini displayed the old forum pretty well.
Also, I see no ads...will we get ad-free forums? ;)

(I want my old forums baack...even with ads! :) LOL ...maybe having an option for "legacy view")

Why are the new pages wider than my display? I have to 'slide' the screen to the left in order to read the right side of the pages.
Do I need to change some screen settings???

downgrade

change is ALWAYS bad and this new forum look is worse, i dare to say.
print too small and too bright, threads too wide, everything comes together.
i do not let miesposo change any settings on my laptop or update anything since he updated my msn and the new look pi**ed me off so much i stopped using it altogether.

I will change the font size. I agree, after seeing it action, it's a little small.
