    The 'website' button in a user's post should open a new window when clicked, instead it opens the link in the same window.

    I don't like this "report a post" button. It's completely nondescript. In fact, if you would have asked me what that button did, I would have guessed that it showed a user's profile. I think the "Report this post to the moderators" text should come back. It worked fine the way it was before. Why change it into an anonymous button?

    I also think the "Quick reply" button is non-intuitive. Again, it doesn't inform the user at all of what it is. Why not just make a "Quick reply" button that looks like the "Quote" button?

    The moral of this story is, as every design journal will tell you, don't use icons unless the user explicitly knows what they are. In this case, neither of these buttons are informative enough to let the user know what they are going to do before he/she clicks them. Thus, they will not be clicked. In the case of "Report this post", that's actually critical, because a lot of people won't know how to report posts, and they won't bother if they can't find the link like it was before. This is going to create a lot of unnecessary work for the mods and re-training for the users of this site. I say take it away and bring back our text link.

    The other problem I'm having is that I'm not easily able to "track" from the title/author side to the last replier/views side of a thread in the forum view. Could you bring back the 1px gray bar or something on the top and bottom of each post as an easy visual guide to discerning posts? This wasn't a problem before, so the 1px gray bar you had before was working. Example

    Otherwise, looks good.

    I agree with you 100%, I actually came to this thread to ask where the heck the report a post button was located until I read your post and then it popped out to me..

    Thanks to selpaw and bear. I was driving me crazy. The previous URL that I had was "action=getnew". It is now changed to "do=getnew". The price of progress, I guess.

    I'm pretty sure I already touched on this earlier in the thread but I'm too lazy to go back to find the post. I love all (well, most of) the new changes. Job well done. However, one MAJOR one really and truly does not sit well with me. Before the upgrade, I could have one browser window with the New Posts page. And while I would work throughout the day, I'd occasionally refresh that window to see an updated list of new posts. However, now, the list itself does not update. All it does is refresh the existing list of threads.

    So now I have to always go back to the home page and click on the new posts link every time I want an updated list?

    Not sure if this has been posted, but it would be nice of people's status (Offline or Online) was bold if they were online again.

    Maybe not everybody has the same habits as you

    There is a lot needs to be fixed and even if we have to handcuff the slacka, it will get done sooner (I hope) or later

    Don't know if anyone commented, but in Opera, the smilies box goes outside of the post box.

    The font should have been the same as it was before, I compared the old WHT skin to this one when I was developing it and they looked the same. Just to be sure I just checked the vB font settings. The font is set to verdana, 12px. I can goto 11px if you wish. Just thought I would clear that up.

    vB3 automatically has an MSN messenger field now.. you should merge that field with the old one.

    Also, in the profile view, it shows the online status next to the username.. so mine says DanX Invisible.
