Just wanted to apologize in advance for any weirdness you may be seeing, not to mention thing like the headers on the forums not matching the rest of the site. We're busy tweaking features, moving some menu items around and fixing up images and other stuff. We're also getting ready to start repairing browser issues (anyone with a Mac want to send me screenshots?) and re-adding the broken and missing items from v2. We've been receiving a lot of feedback and congratulations... it's a darn shame that the people that don't like certain things are just so pathetic in providing feedback. Instead of offering suggestions, it's basically a flame, so that's just a waste of time. For those that did have complaints and presented them to me in a constructive fashion, congratulations, you're a rarity!

We've actually fixed a few browser issues, and the site now shrinks from the right, so the 800x600 resolution folks can now browse categories and the tutorial listing stuff in the center of the layout like before. We've also fixed the sloppy gradients and images in the header (not the forums pending skin update by Ghost) and we're moving the more important tutorial relevant options and menus to the main navigation area instead of on the User Dock.

Lots more to come, so just bear with us, and please continue to send me your feedback and suggestions.

Oh, and before I go... I have seen posts on other forums about how the site is full of spelling errors. I have found 1. Can someone point out these errors so I can fix them? Oh, and there's rumors that people are running exploits on the site, although I have yet to find anything that looks odd or busted. If you know of an exploit that defaces or damages the site in any way, or otherwise screws things up, I'd really like to know about them.

Thanks again everyone!

Which logo are you keeping up because the one on the main Index looks green and the shadow looks a little strange now and gone is the reflection, it's 100% much nicer as it was without extra green on top of it.

Anyone else seeing this or is it my eyes.

[NGPixel]

I told Dan the same thing, but he prefers that version lol

Try Browsercam.com for screenshots. $25 a year via fundable http://fundable.org/browsercam email Browsercam and they'll point you in the way of an ongoing group (they did for me at least).

Or just try the free trial for a day, you should get all your Mac shots done that way.

Costs $0 if members add them freely.

I have the same logo problem / view. The new one looks as if it has an outer glow and missing reflection. But oh well

Awesome thank you Wow IE on the MAC is completely fubar.. that looks pretty hopeless lol! Anyhow, we'll use these to try and cleanhouse...

Are these all the latest versions of the browsers btw?

Oh, and the thing with the ads.. that's actually a screw up with Overture... all their ads do that in Opera and they have yet to fix it.

Thanks

Dan

[Jordan Pittman]

yes the browsers are all their latest versions infact i updated firefox(only one that needed updating) right before i took the screenies

UPDATE:
i have the camino Screenshots Up with the latest version of camino

[adamfran]

Heres a bug I think (unless its meant to do this):

The 'Popular Categories' on the menu disappears altogether when you click Collapse All and the only way to get it back is to refresh the page.

[NGPixel]

We are still working on that feature, its not a bug.

[α∂αмяoss]

Good luck with the tweaking guys! I look forward to seeing this site bug free!

[Faken]

Can someone with Camino and/or safari get in touch with me?

Thanks,
Dan

[Av-]

I dont use Camino or Safari, but i've spotted a minor problem in ie7



looks like the right edge is mispositioned a lil, shouldnt be too hard to fix, this only happens on the forums btw.
