You'll most likely have to logout/login again and clear your browser's cache if you choose this new layout, but it should work. Let me know if you have any problems with either layout. | Yay!  Thanks, Buck!

| | | Hmmm. Seems to work fine for the general categories screen, but once I select a category--SYM, BG2/SoA, BG2/ToB, etc--I drop back to short width, no matter what user choices I've made.

| | | I've lost the ability to access the panel at the top (where User CP etc was kept.) It's there if I log out, but when I log in, it goes. The same throughout the forum...

| | The "Fullscreen" format only works in the main forums index. In topics or in the individual forums, they're still at the 800 x 600 format....

Regarding the layout, I don't get the full screen format until I sign in, then it is only the forum indices. Once you click on a subject you lose the full screen view. I have had this problem for a while though, but previously it was random.

Also, I can't navigate back and forth from the forums to the main sections. I can't navigate from the specific game sections back to the home page with out bqacking out through all of them. THere does not seem to be a direct link to the home page. Also, You can't navigate to the forums from within the walk throughs.

Let me know if you still have trouble with the width on any pages. |

| | | I've warmed up to this layout I don't think it's as bad as it was when I saw it first, but I still have very nostalgic feelings for the old one.
