We've just done a new code release and there are a few issuettes - we'll work through them.

Do refresh your pages though - that gets rid of most of the problems (though not all).

Tabs are back for Discussions of the day/Most Active on Active Convos/I'm On, but not on the threads themselves.

I am on MN new, not old style. I am still getting a huge white space where the adverts are on the right hand side of the page, my active convos, or whichever thread I'm on, doesn't start until I scroll to the end of the adverts, almost halfway down the apge. it's putting me off and is annoying!

NorktasticNinja · 28/10/2009 19:42

Firefox and MN new (on Mac OS Leopard if that makes a difference).

Different and smaller (?) font (I like it)
Rollover pop-ups of poster names that fade out as you move the mouse off the name
Yellow warning type triangle under first letter of warnings at the top of topics (for example AIBU)

BobbingForPeachys · 28/10/2009 19:39

That was a funny blip, reminded me of the college chat system back in 1991 when only a few of us even knew how to use the thing.... great memories...

GooberIsLockedInTheBootOfMyCar · 28/10/2009 19:38

I don't like it.

I am pouting.

morningpaper · 28/10/2009 19:37

BIGTECH wtf are you fiddling with now boy

everything is tittifered

tell me if you want some screen shots (Firefox with classic here too)

ChutesTooNarrow · 28/10/2009 19:36

MN classic / Opera browser. Threads that have more than one page have a stray '1' above the 'This is page blah of blah...'

Apart from that I quite like it.

popsycal · 28/10/2009 19:36

firefoxa and classic
all a bit weird but cant put my finger onwhy and how.....

theDeadPirateRoberts · 28/10/2009 19:35

Parts of it are nice - I like being able to see full poster names, but I'm on MN new and firefox, and it's not highlighting which threads I've already opened.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/10/2009 19:35

You are all missing the important point. There is no Biscuit yet.
hmpffffffff.

ImSoNotTelling · 28/10/2009 19:35

throckenholt does yours look more or less the same as before?

Guimuahahahahahaaaaaaa · 28/10/2009 19:32

Although perhaps I'm on classic as I've never noticed any truncated nicknames!

tvaerialmagpiebin · 28/10/2009 19:32

In active convos, didn't it used to be that you could click on the topic name and thread name separately,
e.g. _chat: what is going on? you could either click on chat or whatis going on, now the thread name is fixed to the topic name (a bit irritating butI suppose not the end of the world)

throckenholt · 28/10/2009 19:31

Firefox and classic. Looks generally ok - apart from threads I'm on - which lacks definition between threads and spacing is odd.

Also - advanced search - tells me there x messages matching the search but helpfully doesn't show them.

ImSoNotTelling · 28/10/2009 19:31

How do you get it to reload the style sheet? F5 is refresh should that do it or should I be pressing something else?

Cos I've pressed F5 and I'm not happy

Guimuahahahahahaaaaaaa · 28/10/2009 19:30

Half of the posters names I can see are in blue but aren't hyperlinks, I think, and the other half are in black and underlined and the link works. Is this wrong, or is it people who've got profiles and people who haven't?

MN new (I think, but I can't remember how you tell) and Safari.

Other than that it looks different, and I fear change, and threads I'm on/ last 15 minutes etc just looks wrong!

tvaerialmagpiebin · 28/10/2009 19:29

Firefox and Classic here

No line between last message in thread and "Add your message here", makes it look a bit odd as if part of the last message.

Too much left and right hand side space.

Box with discussions of day and mst active actually shows both - used to just show Ds of day (actually hasn't in classic for ages but I forgot)

ImSoNotTelling · 28/10/2009 19:21

I have no margins on either side and everything is squashed up together. My eyes really do hurt. Maybe I should do something else

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/10/2009 19:20

no Biscuit ?

Giant thread headers on the 'what I'm on' page. mn new, firefox. other than that its fine.

but no Biscuit

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 19:20

If you have big spaces each side, you can zoom in so they disappear & Firefox will keep that setting just for MN. I did that after the last big change & I'd forget I've done it & wonder why MN looks odd on other people's computers.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/10/2009 19:19
Biscuit
Cockavita · 28/10/2009 19:17

Tis horrible...

GrapefruitMoon · 28/10/2009 19:16

Classic
Safari

Threads I'm on looks odd

can't search

everything else looks slightly different but say in what way!

BertieBotts · 28/10/2009 19:15

Search seems to be broken, is that related (ie temporary)?

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 19:14

It looks better on the iPhone too - are the titles wrapping differently - they seem to fit better on the screen.

Advanced Search is bigger too (once you've clicked on 'By Keyword' but there's a big gap between 'By Keyword' and 'By Time' (on Firefox as well as on Safari/iPhone) so it's not immediately obvious the second option is there.
