Good - 21st Century/Vista/OS X compliant look, design, feel with the menu bars. Good work

Bad - Someone's already pointed out the lack of rounded edges on the left part of the sidebars
- The grey bar with all the different sections, looks slightly odd IMHO with just the face at the end to represent the Community Centre. Surely you either want icons to accompany the text (I know there are some icons that were used with blogs on the "old" site, maybe those), or just text?
- The advert at the centre of the page is centred alright, but then the advert in the sidebar runs under it a little bit. I know it's a bit pinickerty, but it does appear to make things look ever so slightly untidy. I'll attach a screenshot.

Anyways just my two cents, overall the site is still impressive and a favourite of mine, and credit to you for taking the initiative. Also would I be right in saying that the layout was maybe inspired a bit by a facebook.com?

Oh almost forgot to say, I also like the effect you get with attached pics (enlarged and centred on a dimmed background, and click or esc to exit, really cool!) Though I suspect it might have been available for sometime and I just hadn't noticed.

Looks lovely. someone is certainly doing their job. i'm having a problem though. The user name and password spaces aren't completely visible. They are behind the categories tab. is it my settings or something? Nice job though.

Its awesome!

Must be you, i click login, and then the search bar dissapears and the username and password boxes take its place.

Community Center doesnt have a text title? for me all the other sections have text names in the bar, bur community center just has the pic of the guy from the welcome video? took me bloody ages to find it

P.S it looks terrible at 1024x768, its just slightly too wide for the screen, so there is scrolling required. Its just not very user-friendly at less than 1280xx1024 and considering a fair number of users will be visiting in "safe mode" this could be a problem. Everything also just seems to be bigger. Set your monitor to 1024x768 and see what i mean, on this thread the from the top to where it says Blog Tag Cloud and Dani's solved threads takes up the entire page!

Basically, it woulnt scroll, were it not for the grey border around the side of the page.

Also some mobile browsers cant login, the username and password buttons go and hide in random places.

Overall i like it, it just needs tweaking.

I will be honest, I don't like it as much as the old one, though I'm pretty sure other people do I don't like having all the posts crammed on the left side of the page. Instead, I prefer to have them aligned in the centre like the old style did.

Do you think its possible to add an option in the control panel to switch back to the old layout?
Just for those of us who don't like change

Oooooh, and I DEFINITELY like the new parts of logging in and logging out. The username and password boxes with greyed text, the asking for confirmation when you logout and the links that come out on the page. Very professional I think.

unliklely to happen methinks

The new post listings on the "main page" for top-level forums no longer indicate which forum the post is in. Listing the forum is helpful to determine if the post is in one of the forums you participate in a lot.

or are a mod of
