You are an IT guys worst nightmare. Can you be more specific than it sucks and it's a disaster? I can't fix things I can't see or have information on. Things look fine on my end. I need more information to fix problems you are having.

On my end, the extra space, more adds, and bubbles ward the appearance on my android (which I usually use the desk top version) and on my Nook, I cant always make the text boxes full screen with new threads at the bottom rather to the side. It squishes all the extra content and more ads together which gives makes it cluttered on some devices since not everyone has IPhones etc.

On a personal rather than technical, the cluster is also hard on the eyes for me being visually impaired. So, Id suggest as some sites like yahoo do which used to have the option to stick with the "old html version yahoo" (as they phrase it I think) or the present version. Also, some people who increase their text would find it probably bothersome on their portable devices because the icons overlap the text and its hard to read. The old version was perfect in regards to reading and using accesibility features.

On a desktop and laptop (if not a personal mini one) it looks fine depending on personal preference. However, I do notice that the site is geared more towards adds and style from an outsiders perspective and those who are not being updated behind the scenes.

Other than that, it all comes down to personal preference. Id probably use it on my laptop but on my portable devices some things like widden screen and more adds make the screen to tight to post threads comfortably.

I find it faster, but wasn't noticeably slow to me except over last few days when I'm thinking tech guys were tinkering around.

I find the additional boxes interesting and at first glance, for me, offsetting or slightly annoying. But I'm so used to forum updates and lots of negative chatter while my mindset is learning to adapt and get used to it, find appreciation that someone cares enough to tinker around and maintain/improve the framework.

Also, more menus than Skyrim on console. What in the world was wrong with straight alerts/conversation drop down menus? Sure, it's a slight in convenience, but I'm already doing it on my phone. For mobile use it's super inconvenient.

What screen resolution?
1920x1080. The problem is that the design demands that the browser be set very wide which covers up other windows I have active. If the 'new threads' box did not have such a large, fixed size on the right of the main area, I'd be fine. If I could make 'new threads' optional, that would work as well.

Hi Folks...

Day 2 - and I still like it :) Desktop 1920 - 1080 res looks very neat and clean.. In fact Ive got lots of "blank space" on MY page, no crowding at all...lol.. The rest will just take some getting used to - we hate change dont we..?..lol...

Sorry guys for the earlier misplaced Kudos then - and a big thumbs up to our main Man Brent for a smooth and quick revamp :)

Nicely done!

Now if only the color scheme can be customized. I'm a gloomy atmoshpere person and prefer darker themes. The one when I first came was the best, color theme wise. You know, the one with badges.

Anyone else have this horrible thing happen while editing on mobile? I wish I screen shot it before reloading, where the options box was covering my text, making it so I couldn't see. Very cool.

I like the emojis and I could easily become used to the new layout. I like the colour, too, apart from the grey is too light on the white. On the whole I prefer this style.
