I guess you have to have the ads, but they're everywhere. It feels a little cluttered now, but I'll get used to it.

Well this is how it looks like to me: http://img343.imageshack.us/img343/5340/untitled9vs.jpg

Try clearing your cache and reloading

It appears scattered to me, posts are indented, title is out of whack, etc..

Since english is left to right, perhaps the ad box, navigation, and such could be on the right. Much less obtrusive when you can read from the margin. Google is a good example.

Yeah, you need to clear the cache otherwise it does not render properly. I had the same problem.

I think i would prefere the advertising that is on the left side to be on the right side. Im not too fussed with the look at the top.

The main page is good, but i think the old style was better. I understand you have to have avertising to pay for things so i think most people wont complain too much. So i guess its the best you can do in this situation.

Thanks for all your work to keep PFO up and running big_K

Clearing cache, fixed the title... but not the post indentation.. (note the -->).

BTW- I agree with Dameon. The ads on the left are a bit obtrusive.

big_k105 · Jul 3rd, 2006, 4:12 PM

Ok, so everyone thinks ads on the left is bad, but Navigation is normally on the left. The more the feedback the better.

IR: Why are you using IE anyway

I will look into the IE problems. I think there might be some problems with Opera too but in firefox it seems like everything is looking good.

IR are you also getting asked to login to anything when you visit different parts of the site?

I agree completely, its very distracting. Do you get more money if its on the left than the right? Because if not the right is without question a lot better.

Moreover, I really dislike the way the posts get smaller and smaller in width. It just looks really ugly and is hard to read long posts. If anything, shouldn't they get bigger in width size? Taking into considering that as theres only a few adds below the initial post and thus, leaving more width space for replies?
