Geeezz what's happened whilst I've been away!! When you said the server was being changed I wasn't expecting it to look different. It's kinda cool, nice work!.

As much as I like signatures, some peoples were getting ridiculously big. Although it's easier to tell who's writing what as it cuts it up a bit more.

I definitely like the change, I agree the old one was outdated. It was getting spam constantly too.

But I think the colour schemes at present aren't enough of a contrast. I'm finding it very hard to read people's posts, who posted them and when new posts arrive.

Thanks for letting me know. I've added a bit on the disclaimer page to say you need to use an up-to-date browser to use the site.]

Cheers

not sure if many other people are having problems so its a good idea added it to the disclaimer page, i was having trouble connecting for a few days just thinking it was at the server end, then had more time last night to find out it was my old internet explore that was the problem :(

I'm using ie6 and it seems fine to me.

I'm using it at work so we've only got ie6. Although I can't see many of the pictures and avatars, but thats just because work have blocked Photobucket and the like. They've also blocked http://www.UK-polos.net, but I can get round it by using the Tigerstyle address, so please dont change that :P

Loving the new style. I've had no problems at all. Signatures where getting rather big.. though i admit a few of mine was.

Liking the avtar idea too!

Great work!
