Well, I have wide screen 1280x800 display, so no problem at all.

But the majority of people use 1024x768 or 800x600. The websites should be made to meet these requirements.

How about all the laptop users, how they can update their monitors???

Hey!!! It looks much better with the avatar and user info area off to the left!!!

btw, it does look better with the avatar to the left, less scrolling down the page (at least it seems so).

I don't like changes in general and not this one particular. I'm a retro guy

Hope it will be back in ordinary style soon, but perhaps I could learn to live with this change. It may just be a matter of "just get used to this thing" thing.

I can actually get used to this new theme. Change is always uncomfortable, but it can be adapted to. Plus, changing default themes for dynamic websites is a pain in the rear and I'm sure neither Jude nor Neil are looking forward to the process of porting the old theme over.

I not quite sure what changing themes of forums and tweaking involves but I started this thread more as a feedback for Jude and Neil to look over...

EDIT: And apparently I not quite sure how to type either...

Aww... c'mon guys its not a night and day difference in terms of space used...

look at this...

And as to the laptop users, on the most part laptop screens can run at higher res than TFT screens anyway

I think most of the comments about usage of space was posted before the change from horizontal avatar and user infor bar that goes all the way across the screen to what it is now. And yes, it's not so bad now. But Jude said there will be a 120 pixel ad bar off to the right? Why not just up on top?

I'm really not too keen on head-fi's new look...but maybe I'll get used to it. The fonts don't render too nicely on my system either, but I'm on mozilla 1.6 on Gentoo 1.4, it's probably just that I don't have a nice version of whatever font you set to with this style.

 

[kelesh]

i don't really like it. maybe this will change in time. is there a search option somewhere?

I meant it generally. Head-Fi changed design is ok for me.

Hmmm, on my old IBM Thinkpad with a 13.3 inch screen I can't go beyond 1024x768. I wonder how higher res would look like on it. Probably the icons & texts would be too small.

Did you clear all your browser settings? Check COOKIES - they may be set for 'this instance only' (or something like that).

Can't update avatar. Obviously it's because you are upgrading to larger image capabilities.

Is 18 the max amount in Ignore list?

Is 2 the max amount in buddy list?

FINALLY! You can look up a community member starting with first letter of his or her name. Thumbs up!!!

Best thing I like about this design is that text is much easier to read. Nice work.
