I really hope the Romantic Speckles theme/layout is brought back, the current one makes it annoying to read anything. Also, the whole forum is not completely centered for me either. It's off to the left a bit.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet but after I am done reading the new posts in a thread it is still bold as if I have not read it. I assume that this is being worked on but I thought that I would mention it. I am also getting a message that says that no new FOTDs have been posted within 7 days and it is requiring me to log in again.

Thanks again for all of your hard work Janice & Mods.

I am DYING without my new posts link also. I have to open a post before I can see the bar with the menu.

I'm having serious lag issues as well. :/ One page says I've cleaned my inbox, another says no way, and threads are t aking awhile to post. :/

I have to reload the page in order to get new posts to actually show up even though I have clicked on the new link/post

I'm just a little confused... can someone please let me know where to find the User CP button now?

EDIT: Found it now...

Anyone else find that the width of the site seems to have shrunk dramatically? It used to fill my browser window, width-wise, and now it's barely 70%. If I were to use full-screen in the browser, it's more like 55%. I know my monitor isn't small - but I can't be the only one seeing this.

Just seems like everything is a lot more squished up than it used to be.

Another thing I've noticed is the page navigation buttons in threads seem to be very spread out. Not sure if this is an internet explorer vs Firefox bug (i'm using firefox), but yeah .. huge gaps between pages, 1, 2, etc.

Anyways - I'm sure people are working on this stuff.

Looking forward to seeing things come back to the standard they were previously

I'm logged in, but it says "Private" in the FOTD forum for me. However, it really is not private because I can still get in. I think its logging me out each time I go to the forums.

I was frustrated because I couldn't find the "new posts" but then I realized I have to be in the forums page.

It sounds like some may be having actual display issues, but hopefully this will help others.

Of course, for the last hour or so, it seems to be hung up because even when I've been gone for a while, it says this when I try to access new posts: This forum requires that you wait 15 seconds between searches. Please try again in 14 seconds.

I, too, am having problems with not being able to delete messages in my Inbox, but I'm also having problems with seeing new messages. I just received an email saying I had a new message, but when I went to check it here, it wasn't there (even though it keeps telling me I have one new message).

^^^I am having the same problem with seeing new PM's after being emailed with a notification. I haven't noticed any other problems yet, but the site is looking great I must say! Great job Janice & co.

The User CP button is still not on the main page. Click on "Forums" to find USER CP and New Posts

BTW I can't log out! But that doesn't matter. You all know I am sleeping from time to time

We're logging the issues as they come up, thanks for sharing them with us.

If you're a PM still seeing ads please clear out your cookies, start a new browser session and then log back into Specktra.

If it's slightly to the left, then that's normal. Screenshots would be helpful in issue tracking though.

As of right now, there are no other theme options.

The Romantic Speckles theme was no longer supported, as of now it completely outdated and will no longer be used.

I have to do this as well. It will be addressed.

The fixed width is staying, the forum is now fully integrated with the rest of the site and nested within the site container.

The page numbers will need to be fixed, I noticed that as well.

Please try logging out, clearing cookies, begin a new browser session and log back into Specktra. That may help, if not I will be happy to look further into it for you.

I was able to see and click on the New posts and user CP sections last night but now it seems to have gone?

I find this new theme very hard to navigate through and how squished everything is doesn't help

But thank you Janice for all of your hard work.

I totally agree! That's way too much scrolling and it's not centered at all...

But great job with the upgrade! The site looks great!
