What do you think of the new TNL (forum)?

I think afxninjas and Jeremy make a cute couple.

We could always make a specific theme with larger text (and possibly larger buttons).

That might be a nice thing to do anyway, for the visually impared.

no, you misunderstand. we don't need LARGER text. we need smaller text. as it stands now, toggling the browser's text settings has no affect on how the boards are seen. which is why I said that css code may be the solution.

I like some of the additions, like the quick search box in threads and forums is nice :)

But I miss those little Galaga shields and there are still functions like /me and the [thumbnail] that don't work on the new board... they make old posts that use them all messed up :p

Not to mention the XBOX Live user tag is gone... I prefer the old board so far...

the shields are coming sir, be patient. cka hears your whin...err feedback. ;)

SMALLER text? Egads, there's a change I'm not looking forward to.

Oops! I guess I misunderstood. The font sizes actually look identical to me so I guess I assumed that since Jeremy was complaining about it they had gotten smaller, since he has vision problems.

Speaking of which. Anyone who has trouble seeing any webpage because of small text should really use Opera - or any other browser which lets you zoom in on webpages.

Its good even if you have good vision. I myself have been known to sit back, put my feet up on the desk, set Opera to 150%, and do some far-off browsing. It's a truly great feature. It also helps when creating and editing webpages, so you can soom in and make sure everything is pixel perfect. :)

sggg, thanks for that info, you just sold me on getting Opera.

I dont know if anyone else experiencing this, but in last couple of days the loading of the forums, and moving between the boards have been quite slow. I tried it both at work and at home, and it the same results. I guess new softwares still needs some tweaking here and there.

It's kinda slow for me, too, but I'm attributing this to not having gzip compression enabled...
