just a nit picky comment on the new selection method for the forums. i dislike drop down lists online in general and since the forums are my main focus here it is getting agravating. thanks

I don't have an issue with the drop down lists per se ... in fact, I think it's an improvement because it makes it a lot easier to find a topic. OTOH, I find the "Go!" button to be unnecessary and therefore a little distracting. All I need to do is to click on the topic in the drop down, and "there I am!" That might be due to the setup on this PC: W95 + Netscape 4.75. IOW, YMMV. If the "Go!" button is actually not needed for any browser, I suggest getting rid of it.

I'd have to agree with wulfgar - I like the complete listing better. Didn't like it when they implemented it for the galleries section in the first place :/

i also dislike the drop down list boxes... i dont know about the rest of you but I use Mozzilla with tabbed browsing. Before, I would middle click (opens a new tab) on the bryce, mojoworld, and rhino forum and I instanly had 3 seperate tabs with each forum. now i cant do that! However... there is a way around this. look at www.rhino3d.com They have different DDLBs that work better for me. maybe you could do something like that

Couldn't agree more... Besides the silly color scheme I don't like the layout as it is now: Previously you had to click just once to get where you wanted to go (most of the time). Now you still have to click once on the LEAST important links (features, marketplace, highlights and web ring) but you have to click twice on the most used links (member options and forums). Either be consistent and make it all pull down menus (if you REALLY think it's such a big improvement) or change it so that you can reach the most used links with ONE click instead of two or more. I truly have no idea what people had in mind when they came up with a layout and color scheme like this one.

I totally agree. I don't like the drop-down lists and I don't like the new colors. :(
