Ok.. that's about as good as it will get until I make both side block columns collapsible.

I need to look at getting the menu bar to continue across the screen too.

You probably just need to reset your timezone in your user preferences.
Not worth doing it now though because that database will be blown away when the new site goes live.

I do think that's a bug though, so I will bring it up with the devs.
I think I remember having to change my timezone.

Can anyone else confirm that their time is off in the new website?

Also jusTANG, even if you end up having the left blocks hidden (when I code that), you can use the grey menu at the top: Main Menu -> Forums -> Todays posts etc

I may add some other navigation here and there.

The devs have tried to go for a very minimalistic look in this new version out of the box. They are all about page generation and load speed.

I have already added a fair bit of stuff from this version into the new version that they no longer deemed necessary and considered clutter.

Just posted and my time is well off at work. Can test at home tonight also if it is useful.

Oh yeah. Where is the logout button? :$

Scratch that. I found it.

Ok, so it looks like all users are losing their timezone during the upgrade.
I will add that to the growing list of bugs I have reported ;)

Right, bugger it.
I'm going to do the upgrade tonight.

No doubt there will be some bugs afterwards, so bear with me while I work through them.

I will do it after 7pm some time.
