    In that case we should remove them as options from the Quick Select Menu

    My Warseer changed! Why do I never read these things and get blindsi- ohh I like it, never mind the rant The auto save feature I keep seeing pop up is nice and welcome. Now if only Gmail could do half as good a job on a redesign...

    Looking good so far, but it could use a better contrast in the posts separation. Like someone said, hard to see the division between the actual post and the signature, all the "box" lines should be brighter (those around the individual posts, the vertical seperation of the user info and avatar, the horizontal seperation of the signature, etc.).

    We see a better definition of the quotes though, wich is good (but could also benefit from being a tad bit lighter :P).

    I find the new site harder to read due to the excessive spacing between threads and posts and the large icons next to thread titles. It’s pretty bad for those of us who tend to use a small browser window.

    This will reduce the amount of time I spend here, but most users seem to like it so I won’t deny it’s a success!

    But what I meant is a higher contrast in the lines. I've included an exemple to what I meant. It's an exageration, but the line being more visible would help I think.

    Note: While typing this, it would also help having brighter lines when we do "preview" of our post. When I look down at the thread 'history', the post are condesed and it's even harder to read without clear seperation. So with higher constrast throughout the site would be easier on the eyes.

    I'm fine with it, looks great and very up to date. Glade that 'leave page' box from quick reply was not just a problem with my Chrome! (and its gone too).

    I have changed my Avatar in honour of the newer, bluer look.
    Yeah, we flew our space church across 500 light years to get to this planet taken over by the orks. Now we're going to drop from orbit in buckets and run out and shoot pistols and hit people in the head with chainsaws. Ultramarines!

    I like the new look but what's the likelihood of including the Quick Navigation option at the bottom of the individual forum pages (WHFB Tactics, etc.) as well as at the bottom of each thread page?

    It is there next to the page numbers.

    Ok don't mind me now, I tried the site on my 3DS and the contrast was much better! So I went to my screen setting and adjusted it, now it's clearer, so was probably just my default setting that was too dark

    Indeed. I'm not sure what the purpose is of the very large icons when so little of them change to indicate different statuses. It's not easy to glance over the list to see which threads are locked or I have posted in, compared to before when ~50 % of the icon changed and the difference was very obvious. (Although it seems to be the default icons, so I hope I'm not hurting anyone's feelings.)

    Also, the "thread started by" lines add a lot of visual noise when you're trying to get a quick overview of the thread titles, in addition to the already mentioned excessive vertical space.

    On that I agree, I think this would work better as a column instead.

    If anyone can come up with a new icon I can modify it easily. So feel free to post something.
