[serious] Just a minor niggle about the new software.

The 'footer' for each post with "Report to moderator" etc.,  and the witty catchphrase beneath, now all sit right under the text of the post, not at the bottom of the box as they used to.

I find this untidy and distracting [/serious]

I see it the same way as Pastis. The "report to moderator" is on the right of my screen.
Of course I may have a different screen to yours as Admin screens do seem to show stuff that others cannot see.
You can try changing your view by going into your own "Profile"  see "Modify Profile", just beneath that there is "Look and Layout". Click on that and it will enable you to change how YOU see the board. You do not have to view the pre-set layout but can select from the options given. I have re-set mine to "Core" which is slightly more sharply defined and is, in fact, the old layout. Better suited to my ageing eyes I find.

Let me know if that helps at all.

I have a theory that Barman was Googling for "hard core" when LL walked in, and he had to order 27 tonnes of gravel to cover his tracks  whistle:

P'raps my explanation was not good enough. I was flicking from one screen to another to get it listed in the right order.
When you get to "Look and Layout" you'll see "Current Theme (Change)" in the middle of the screen. Click on (Change) and you'll get a list of options as to how your personal screen will look. Click on "Core" and then scroll down to change profile and click on that. The difference is subtle but like I said I find it much easier to read.


PS There are Gerly Pink ones available for the Laydees and Gayers.

Nope ~ my "Look and Layout" doesn't have a "Current Theme" option.  rubschin:
