    The new forum template is a bit "narrow". I really hope this isn't a permanent thing because I use 1280x960 and half of my screen is blank.

    And secondly, with the new forum, are animated avatars allowed?

    I seriously hope not. Animated avatars are nothing but distracting. Text and pictures in the actual posts should remain the primary content at forums, not fancy movies as avatars and sigs.

    its not like people go to the forums just to look at animated avatars

    i think it would be neat as long as its not like a 2 min movie of a gif image

    Yeah that's what I meant, simple 5-frame animations. Oh well, you bring up a good point, Kraco. Some people people intentionally use distracting animations so we kinda have to avoid that.

    You don't have the huge grey background on either side of the screen?

    Sure I do, however its not a big deal as I am not looking at the grey background, I am reading a post. I like the set width much more then the 'expand to fit my screen' forums.

    The default posts per page seemed to be 10. That's far too low, if you ask me. Don't you think the forums would work more fluently if you boosted it up to, say, 20? Of course everybody can adjust it to what ever limit they want, but the idea of a default is to be as close to the perfect number (the most convenient) as possible.

    just like you said, since you can set the viewing settings to whatever suits you best, it really doesn't matter what the default is. 10 posts per page make a topic seem really long at first, but people will figure out what fits them best. No point in screwing with minor stuff like that when the user can (and should) just personalize it

    I go with a 1280x800 screen resolution, and the forums look fine. However the text on the main page sometimes looks a little scrunched. Not that big of a deal...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I might be a little late on this, but I just wanna say I'm enjoying the new look to the forum as well. It's a little more narrow than before on my 1024 x 768 resolution, but I guess it's not going to bother me much.
