    what color is the text editor background i'm using... and it is super super slow. Looking for new post only took .01 sec before but now it shows .15. I know .15 is still fast, but a 10X increase and the drag only gets bigger as in flows down the pipe to my PC. Maybe that will be fixed in time, so i'll give it the benefit of the doubt; however, I HATE the fact that the search results are "taller" than they were before. Monitors are going wide screen and the last thing anyone needs to do is waste vertical retail space. This is why I hate MS office 2007, that ribbon bar is huge, I would like it if MS made that bar on the side of the screen, that way I could see 5 or 6 extra lines of text... same here... the search results are taller and I see 2 or 3 fewer before i have to scroll down....

    BTW where to I find my thanks count on the profile??? other than that I do like the profile layout

    EDIT ah hell, it is even gone from my posts....

    And one more thing while I'm add it. I lost the ability to search for all posts Ive created or replied too. That was a really important feature for me. Too bad its gone.

    I can live with the theme, however the speed and the old thread loss seems inexcusable from a user perspective.
    Sorry about that - I didn't leave a redirect in the CC. It should have sent you a PM though.

    Whoa! I was on Google and went to a link to the Ubuntu forums and I didn't even realize it was the Ubuntu forums, lol. The skin is really nice.

    Re: Seriously hating this new forum format!!

    i like the way the actual threads look... but i'm not digging the main page much... it seems i have to scroll down farther to see the community cafe posts. i liked how the old version displayed new posts on the right side. it made it easier to see them.

    but i'll get used to it.

    EDIT. I just realized that the "submit post" button is almost invisible on my computer. is anybody else having this problem or is it a problem with my browser?

    It gets time to get used to a change. I mostly think that the new version vBulleting is great.

    I have one complaint, the url's are invisible! For instance, this whole sentence is a huge url, did you notice it?
