Yes, those comments are spot on - it's a very attractive and welcoming new look.

Have to hold my hand up here cuz I know kitz wouldn't drop me in it lol.

The blue/silver buttons being that way round is sort of my fault!

Kitz originally had them the other way around... and I said.. well given everything else is Silver for selected, Blue for unselected... then it makes sense to have the buttons on the forum the other way around.

But as soon as she changed it I remember thinking.. hmm maybe not. And I still haven't got used to it (I've been using the new forum theme for a few days during testing) ... and - I'm now also kinda of the opinion that it should probably go back round the other way.. e.g. blue for new posts.

You're a very good boy for owning up, master Chris.

[mr_chris]

Why thank you, Eric...

[roseway]

I've just noticed - at the bottom of the forum index page it says

Kitz Forum - Info Center

I think we'll blame Chris for that one as well

Ok you'll be happy to know....  Ive changed the blue/white buttons over.

However Im still having problems (as some of you may have noticed me changing things around) with the alignment for larger text.
Although I did a "bodge" attempt, I also managed to break W3 compliance somewhere along the lines.   

Still attempting to look at a fix for this though Eric.. because its been annoying the hell out of me that IE + Opera were doing what they should.  Then stupidly once I put a fix in for FF - the alignment broke in Opera and IE at normal text size.  Ive been trying a few different things but Im now totally bog eyed through looking at source, and was starting to break things that weren't broken before

Chris has just offered to have a look for me to see if Im missing something.


>> Kitz Forum - Info Center

Not guilty - I havent touched that part of the template and its output by the (US) software.
It just picks up "Kitz" as the forum name and outputs the rest. - Must have always been like that?

I like it...........

I have to admit when I came on earlier today straight from a email reply link, I didn't notice any difference, but just coming on and hitting the top of the page first made me look twice to make sure I had come to the right site.

Keep up the good work.

Oh bugger, I was just getting used to it.

Stop stirring, Floydy

I quite liked the old scheme.

The re-reversing of the buttons caught me out this morning - I had just started to get used to the other version yesterday.  However, I do think that the blue button for active is the easiest to follow.  Thank you for accommodating us on this one.

Just noticed that they key at the bottom of the main page still shows silver as "New Posts" and blue as "No New Posts" - or are you in the middle of changing it all back again just as I am getting house trained on the reverse-reverse button system (otherwise known as the original button sysytem)?

[mr_chris]

I've swapped the two images over... if they're still wrong, Ctrl+Refresh the page to force a complete reload.

It's now a reverse-reverse-reverse-reverse button system...

The navigation bar now seems to display properly with different font sizes (I've tried it in three different browsers). So congratulations on a good bit of work, and apologies for any headaches I've caused by raising it.

You're doing a grand job there Chris. I hope the pay is good!
