Works great, looks a lot better than the old site.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080129 Iceweasel/2.0.0.12 (Debian-2.0.0.12-0etch1)

OK, now I see that in the ones that are cut off the ads still show up, but the actual posts are cut off by the ad (in other words the post shows up in the center part like normal, but shifted to the right.) I also see one it's happening all the time in now (the one in Trollville started by the retarded asshat twatwaffle who apprently likes getting pwned)

I agree.  We went with a very light color originally and couldn't stand the glare.  We've been asked many times to get a light colored theme, and this is the middle ground we came up with. 

The men working on the theming and coloring for the site have every intention of redoing this theme in two more color schemes, one in a very light color, the other one very dark.  Those themes will take time, as our helpers are volunteers.  When the themes become available they will be available to all levels of subscribers and anyone with an elevated role on this site, like moderators and bloggers.

If you have good color coordination abilities and would like to suggest a color palette similar to this one (the mid-tones) please feel free to post them here or make an image, or convey them to us in some manner.  If you know HTML color codes, and have suggestions that's even better.

It still has that "new forum template" smell.

Um, just noticed something,

in the larger threads that have several pages you have to enter the thread and scroll all the way down to select the page you want to visit which is sorta lame, especially in debate threads where messages usually contain loads of quotations and are particularly long.

It would be helpful if the page selection thing would also appear on the top, or even better, on the index page itself, like so:

Cool! I'm actually pretty sure that's where they were before.

Broad images stretch all the posts in a thread.

For an especially egregious example, check our this thread.

Is there any way to fix that? It's possible to do that with vBulletin; IIDB implements that feature.

And here is the URL inlined:

http://www.rationalresponders.com/forum/the_rational_response_squad_radio_show/the_rational_response_squad/11656

 At least such text does not broaden the thread the way that broad images do.

Also, those handwritten titles are not that easy for me to read -- not enough contrast between the text and the background. The text ought to be either brighter or with fatter lines.

And when I create a new post or edit an existing one, I get taken back to the first page of the thread, rather than the page that contains the post, as other messageboard software often does.

Fair enough. I find it pretty also, but to me, it's a bit small and with poor contrast. For best reading, text and diagrams ought to have light colors on dark colors, or else dark colors on light colors.

Where's the "TRACKER" aka "FIND NEW POSTS" option? 

A very nice look.  I like the steenkin' batches, too.  I would have done them had you asked me, but the ones you chose look pretty nice, although the font size could be a little larger on some of them.

On edit:  Some people are complaining the badges are hard to read because of contrast issues.  I think simply making the font size slightly larger would be enough.  Maybe.

Sometimes the bottom of a page is getting cut off too. This not only cuts off posts, but prevents me from seeing pages after the first (the thing to click on a different page is also cut off.)

For starters I like the fact everything looks correct on IE as it does on firefox(cause that was sooooooooooo annoying that when I open ie7 everything is over laping and things couldn't be read correctly its a nice improvment.) I haven't trested everyhing else but off the bat it works well just the fact that everything on the side is mainly ad links and u must scroll down to see other website links or members online.(atleast the site links are right there on top) the ads can be last on the side of the site  I like the banner on top. It's simple, clean but it works well.

About the time of your post, a form of page caching was turned on.  Did the /rss.xml feed break for you at 3/8/2008 at 5:50 PM, was this broke before then, or are you using a different feed?

I seem to be having an issue with the forums in which I can click refresh it doesn't seem to update the actual forum, it reloads it but not with new information, such has the times and who wrote in the forums, for example I wrote something about 20 minutes ago, it said 22 minutes for the last 5 minutes and in freethinking forum, someone had writing and it said 3 minutes ago, even though I checked it out and someone else wrote something 2 minutes after that person, so it seems as though the forum isn't quite updating things on my firefox (which is the latest version)

That's not it. The feed stopped refreshing on 1/25 or thereabouts because that's the last thread it links to. I tried removing it and adding it back because it could have changed, but it still gives me the same stuff. Reloading also changes nothing.

I'm running the latest Firefox on Vista in case it matters.

It's the one on the main page.

The upgrade is done.

Let us know if there are any issues.
