Re: Forum Changes
Richard's signature is still in a temporal anomaly, however. Starfury is apparently still coming soon! 
Ack! Where did the infinitely useful "Mark All Read" link in the control panel thingie at the top of the main forum view go?  If the forum announcements were moved to a cell above the "Welcome" and CP cells, it wouldn't have to squish the CP links to a small area and force some of them to that 3rd line that was there before... |

Re: Forum Changes
I've been fiddling with the Proxomitron some more and managed to make it remove the sidebar on every page, except the thread lists and the main category lists. This is what everyone has been suggesting be done with it.
URL Match:
Code:
www.shrapnelcommunity.com/threads/(^ubbthreads.php|postlist.php)
Byte Limit >= 7000 at least
Matching Expresion:
Code:
<table \w \w \w \w id="pr">*<tr></tr></table>?\n</td>

Re: Forum Changes
What a surprise. Annoying surprise I shall say. Because text in the tread is aligned to the center for me. I bet it's some sort of incompatibility with Opera browser, but it helps a little.
Could owners look at it and possibly fix it?

Re: Forum Changes
That background would be good for forum announcements.
What about one with a gear/hammer theme for the new mods press boxes?

Re: Forum Changes
Actually, I kinda like the new look
Especially now the bloody side news stays up top instead of spreading out down the side
Edit: Oh, since you are changing things around, you might want to consider altering the colors a little to give it a even fresher look

Re: Forum Changes
Since the press releases and links now float to the top. How about putting a collapse sidebar button in the upper right corner of the side bar?
I'd be willing to make the extra mouse click to get rid of the damn thing each time I visit. And, if I really did need the links, I'd only have to click on the same button to expand the side bar.

Re: Forum Changes
Hehe am I the only one who remembers how all the other forum changes over time have been met by outrage, then gradual acceptance?  Pattern seems to be emerging....
