Text, under the News, Reviews, Articles header in the center of the page, is clipped on the right (an ad exists directly to the right of that column). Using good ol' IE6. Cache and cookies cleared at each IE closing for me. Logging out also gives an error and I have to log out from a link in the center of the page a second time...

haven't bothered to read all comments, and want to address one problem I think I might have found.
Selecting a new skin results in a 404 error message.

and, nice job guys! It looks great, I will have to get used to the new layout though...

Ugh ugh ugh!

Only two forum skins, and neither have much contrast between new post and old post icons - I'd sooner see more contrast there and less on the "hot".

The one good thing to say for the icons, at least they don't jiggle, now that would be mad, bad and sad.
Another forum I was on had a vote on new icon sets, including some jigglers, and the majority favoured a set which were a saturation and 3d effect tweak of the old ones. Nobody liked the jiggling ones!

Actually, rotation would go nicely with the DH "gear wheel", and might be good as eaither a new post or hot indication.

To be honest, I don't think it's inviting or "new person" friendly at all.

If someone was new to this site, I think they'd be deterred because:
1. It takes a minute to load, of course I don't have the best internet in the world, but it's average speed.
2. Extravagance isn't always better, and it can sometimes scare people away.
3. Everything seems to be all jumbled up and is hard to navigate.

Just my 2 cents.

I mean, I like the color scheme, that's fine, but why couldn't we keep the same, simple layout as before?

I was on blueheaven before. On that skin, there was a button on the front page to search for all unread messages of the forums. Does that functionality still exist on the CosmosHeaven and SereneHeaven skins? I can't find the button.

The changes are nice but I'll admit that I prefered the colors of blueheaven. It was easier on the eyes to read and the font were a bit bigger.

Thank you Zardon. I see it now. Yes it's the text in the reply box that is too small. The font size on the forums is fine.

Ok ill ask Craig to make it a few pixels larger tomorrow. Hopefully make it easier for you guys. I am sure we can fine tune this to suit as many people as we can.
