Neil is right, expect change and with that change there will always be a re-inventing of the wheel. Even though the wheel's design was pretty much "Hashed-Out" a while back, technology forces it's re-re-re-invention regularly.

I have been looking around the new site this morning and I like it. Seems very clean and so far, everything works. To me, a vast improvement as everything seems organized and no popups. Thanks MR!!
There's never time to do it right, but always time to do it over.....
Mike,
I have been going, around,the black bar, from the left side, or if I want to go through the bar, I do it fast, no hessitation and it works all the time. I also,have been using,my return fuction,to go back to the top,or to another thread. Works fine for me that way, a lot of other forums, I'm on,do it that way, so I guess, I am used to it.
As far as a spell checker, I'm not certain, but there may not be one. At least I could not find it.
Cheers,
Frank
howmus2. If you let your curser accidentally move over the black bar at the top just below the nerdy looking guy leaning on sonething, it pulls down a large thingy with all kinds of useless info for you to figure out how to get out of.... Or move your curser half way down the page for it to magically disapear... How about making that something you have to click on to make show up?
Yes, this is especially irritating. The navigation menu for the entire MR website pops up way too easy, as it's a big fat bar with huge font.
On the other hand, the Forum navigation menu just below it is in tiny font and a hard target to hit because it is so.
Maybe it's just a font size issue? Or a Firefox one (FF 25.0.1 in use here.)
This is an even bigger problem because of the length of posts on the page and no Forum navigation or Back to the Top at the bottom of the page as I and othrs mentioned earlier.
Also note that if you post a reply in a thread, you can't just use Backspace to navigate as you may end up with a double-posting if you're not careful, another irriattion with the lack of what's mentioned above.

Rich,
It appears,to be working fine for me! Who know's? Will probably take awhile, to get the bugs out.
KyleWHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE IS NO SPELL CHECK??? Are you on the same forum as me???
Gidday Kyle, I think I must be, otherwise how did you quote me??? I'm with Galaxy on this one, if there is a spell check function, then it ain't working for me. Not that it matters too much, I will just not have to be so lazy.
Bheers, teh Cear.

Kyle It seems like the larger post run off the screen, I can't see the text on the right side, only the left one. Iabsolutely hate the spell check, it seems like it is to make nonsense words, and put several words together. . Did I mention I HATE THE SPELL CHECK, IT DOESN'T WORK!!!

Where IS the spell check on here???
I have had trouble with the old spell check for a while, but DO NOT SEE IT here?
The "preview post" shows up with a "group not found " answer...I thought maybe the spell check was there????

After long and careful thought, they have convinced me. I have come to the conclusion that they are right. The aliens did it.
HECK !!!!!!!!!!!!!! No speel chekk, no font colours, or highlighting, no direct link to the last post, and while I've managed to change font size I appear to be stuck in BOLD.!!! (Probably finger trouble on my part). BUT, is it my imagination or has the Search Function actually improved ????? And, most importantly, we still have a forum. Thank you Kalmbach. I think. ......and I've managed to insert a photo. Cheers, the Bear.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE IS NO SPELL CHECK??? Are you on the same forum as me??? I HATE THE SPELL CHECK, IT NOT ONLY DOESN'T WORK, IT MAKES CORRECT WORDS A BUNCH O LETTERS THAT DON'T FORM WORDS!!! I have a quote I heard on the news that they used to describe the Obama care website, "I would call this a train wreck but that would be unfair to the train wreck!" It is my new favorite quote
trainboyH16-44Ooh. No preview. Put that on the list.
I'll complain if necessary, but for now I think I like the look, seems to have good functionality, and the popup banner is GONE! High five. Oh, and the old MSN smileys are still here? Rock on.

kbkchoochand backround & font color choices are gone too.
I noticed that right off! That well and truly sucks. I can still use BBCode to change font colors though.
bogp40 The bottom of the page, is missing any "back to top" or forum redirection like the one at the top. You will have to scroll your way back to top.

It seems like the larger post run off the screen, I can't see the text on the right side, only the left one. Iabsolutely hate the spell check, it seems like it is to make nonsense words, and put several words together. I also miss the links on the bottom, it helpEd get back to thetoo pic easily. Also is there a mobile site and a full site? If so how do I get to the full site? Also the side bar is now at thebottom of the page. really wish they will switch it back. Did I mention I HATE THE SPELL CHECK, IT DOESN'T WORK!!!
If you notice a bug and comment on it as a helpful note to the techies, include your OS and browser. I've already found things that work better on Firefox than on IE.
But, of course, almost everything works better on Firefox than on IE, right?
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
Okay, maybe I am blind, but I can't seem the "mark all read" link/button. Anyone else find it?

Two complaints from me..... (Usually there have been more!)
1. You can't go directly to the last post in a thread. You now have to go to the first post then click on the button to reverse the order of the thread and do things backward... Pain!
2. If you let your curser accidentally move over the black bar at the top just below the nerdy looking guy leaning on sonething, it pulls down a large thingy with all kinds of useless info for you to figure out how to get out of.... Or move your curser half way down the page for it to magically disapear... How about making that something you have to click on to make show up?

Well, just like any other web site, the "techies" and those that come up with this stuff need to justify their jobs, by constantly changing things to what THEY think is better. So they can go to the boss and say..."see, isn't this cool?" "Look what we did!" "We are so cool.....they NEED us...."

Thanks for the new updated format. The response is much better on my old computer and I am able to move to new subjects much faster. A great improvement, in my opinion (as if anyone gives a durn!)

More grump...
No new smilies, either.
Wow I'm blind! I really hate these website updates. Seems like we always loose all the cool features and gain stuff that is umm umm of questionable value. Of course last time the value of the most popular tag composite was something lost because someone messed with it manually....so can't blame that on software upgrade. I see it seems to be totally missing now.
Can not find a font size button or anything.
Can I do it with embedded HTML? Yup that works. Well it works in preview but not when the message posts. Another feature lost.
If the insert image works like it looks like it might that will be a major improvement. Try... try... try... Nope it doesn't. It isn't a real image insert it is an image URL insert just like before - sigh.
I kinda like the new black on white. With the increased contrast, I can rdea and ytpe mallser.
