Wasn't sure where to post this, but I wanted to throw out my opinion on the new look of the site.
I'm ok with the "blinginess" of it, but I think the form before function went a bit too far. It wasn't broke before and I understand the need for a fresh look, but it's a bit much now. Much of the screen real estate is taken up with the massive flash header. Plus, it takes longer now for the page to load so scrolling the header out of view to see the threads takes longer. The site was fast loading before.
Also, when typing in your text in to the body of your message text box, it splits your words when it gets to the end instead of moving it to the next line like any other basic text editor. Makes proof reading a bit of a drag as the last word on the line is "si" and the first word on the next line is "te"
Anyway, I'm only one of how many now? It's just a turn off for a site that I frequent so much to be so janky.
