Where did the message center go?
That was the best part of CL - I could go there and see any of the threads that I am subscribed to and if a new post had been made (plus my PMs).
On the plus side, at least this new software told me why I couldnt' get any more PMs as my SENT items counted towards my max and that's why I was full.

Small issue for me, but the right side banner is screwing up the forum sizes, when I go from the forum mainpage to subforums, the font sizes get bigger. The forum mainpage is actually rather small to read. And some threads have a wider view, which is nicer, than others which have a narrower view and the banner very visible for some reason!

I changed the skin to vBulletin 3 and I liked it because it is very simple and had no pictures. It was fine for a few hours and now the skin is back to the new version. Is there any way to change it back to vBulletin 3 (I can't seem to find the option to change the skin anymore).

2 main problems with the new layout:
1-banner on right is killing screen space especially for threads with pics.
2-no open search function (like the one on the top left of the old layout) except for clickoing on search. PLEEEEEZE bring this back to me!!!

How redundant
I'm no fan of that ad along the right edge, either, but I can understand the need for advertising.
But what a waste of screen space that image of the IS, GS and SC is, just below the CL banner. It is taking up 1/6 of the height of my screen!
And for what? So we know we are on "A Lexus Owner's Club" web page?
Isn't that what the banner above it is for?
Combine the two banners and they take up one third of each screen.
Now you know why you scroll so much.

Nice banner, but I wish it stayed at the top instead of the side. Easier to browse without it on the side, but I understand they are sponsoring the site.

New banner/header is waaaaay too big
I have a 19" monitor set at high resolution, and the new header section is taking up almost 1/2 of my screen real estate. That's a big no-no with respect to good web design. Imagine if I was using a 15" monitor with 800x600 resolution...

ClubLexus is now officially 1024x768-unfriendly.
Please give me my screen estate back... Either that, or give me a new laptop with one of those 1920x1200 screens.
