I like the new "look", the new edit feature, and the multi-quote feature, but I gotta say, the advertising banner on the right side of the page is really annoying. It shrinks the entire forum and makes all of the posts scrunched. The real kicker is that once you get past the first post, there isn't even an ad anymore, it's just dead space that would be better served for real thread space.

I understand that CL costs money and ads serve a funding purpose. Although there is already an ad at the top, more ads = more $$, so perhaps the side one is "necessary". Regardless, it's still an aesthetic pest.

Perhaps have one ad up top and one on the bottom?

O.L.T. -- I'm on a high res setup (2048xsomething.. ) and the layout is great but just plain out bad in some cases.

The witdh-ness of each post is not efficent. You have on the right hand side quite a lot of real estate room that is being wasted.

Anyways we cn get another vBulletin style or something for members that love to be efficent? Heck a black and white terminal/console style layout would be badass

Other than that, have any issues with 3.6.0 vs 3.5.4? How well was the upgrade?

I also dont like the banner on the right side. Maybe move it to the bottom so you have one on top and one on bottom.

There are plenty of Vbull skins, but they likely would have to be worked in under the same tedious security measurements and setup time. I dunno, not my area.

1440 x 900 is pretty much dead on point perfect res for the setup.

17 inch widescreen Apple Powerbook The safari browser is just awesome and works well with everything it seems.

What's the story on the gallery to upload pictures?? Is it me or where is the link??

Also not enjoying this advertising on the side - makes everything else too small.

For me the link is still there in the same spot. I am experiencing the same issue as Dav. On my post page here, smileys are cutoff But I am also running 1024x768, so must be because of that. OTher than that, I'm loving it. Question tho, where can I get the URL for the image on the banner, the picture with the front ends of the 2IS, 3GS, and SC?
