sadly I agree although this is much cleaner.

Well I do agree that it's small, but you don't really have to read that stuff. Just click on it.

If it's really that small, set a minimum font on your browser( instructions are for firefox):

To do this, go to Tools/Options/Content, under Font's and colors, click advanced, then where it says minimum font size, set what you want and apply it.

This is not the same as a standard font... it just means that no font can be below the given font size you put in..

I like the new look, makes everything much easier to navigate, even though it isn't exactly pretty. Is forums.halomods.com supposed to be at the top instead of the logo though?
Also, can I have my secksie past staff icon back?

EDIT: I just saw the new "A new post has been added before you blah blah blah" or something like that. Useful.

i tried that sadly it made other things like names and post times look werid...isnt it stupid having forum names the size of usernames

bring back the old look

or change this one to be better

even just putting each sub-forum on its own line would be better

I noticed there's no "users currently browsing this section".

Needs to be under 10k and 80x80 pixels or less.

If it's over 10KB, you can't upload it.

wow, this sucks, this is way more difficult to navigate. i'm sure over time you'll find ways to make this more convenient (right?) because right now the whole interface you have going is'nt very user friendly. i think a big portion of it is things you would normally have out in the open i.e. halo 2 downloads, pictures section, and cafe/general discussion are now a sort of subforum which makes navigating to the parts of the site i normally use much more difficult. maybe make a site map with links on the left as another frame or something for quick navigation. also i can't see "users browsing" anywhere so i assume that means its gone, well i have no idea where the fun is at anymore...

Yes there is. It's at the bottom, which I dislike; it was much easier to see on top. Nonetheless, it's there.

I'm not sure what resolution you run at that you can't read the sub forums text...There are just too many forums to go back to the old way of listing them all on one page...Even the old forums were beginning to get unwielding with the length to find what you actually wanted, after the merge, it was twice as bad...Now I know where the few forums are just by experience of visiting them a few times, and can see which has new posts at just a glance...

I have some ideas that will make this system work even better in the future...Just not there yet... ;o)

Cool so far... I like the new theme a lot. By the way, there are two forum merge topics in the announcements forum... someone should remove one of them. So far so good though...

Whenever I visit a certain section or leave the website after I'm done checking my section, it doesn't mark it as read...even if I make a post.

What browser are you using?..You're the second person who's reported this...I use IE, and I don't seem to have the problem...If you logout, and log back in, does it mark them as read then?..

I use Firefox...and I wouldn't know about the problem of logging out and back in; I auto log in. However, I'll try that.

EDIT: I just tried that and it fixed it...I'll just stick with logging out and back in.

Check your Profile shadowkhas. There's an option in there to keep posts alive until your next visit. Try selecting that, then unselecting it.
I get that sometimes when I view any forum in Firefox, though.
