Looks very odd I must say except in topics, also I have 2 grey boxes at the top and bottom, I assume thats where adverts are?

Also the users medals are now listed in a row and look odd as they are not aligned properly

Groundhog Day again then, we have been there before with previous improvements forum upgrades.

Oh, and the forum favicon is broken yet again too!

Here we go again.

If by that you mean "People are going to complain" they're well within their right to do so - if you mean "the forum shall disappear in 2 minutes for 6 weeks" then I'd assume not, I think NSI have learnt from that blunder!

The new and current typography design is very poor, especially those with vision problems, the kerning causes words not to be read quickly and generally looks a mess. Further to this the change to the stylesheet has realigned the medal ribbons and made them out of line, causing an aesthetic issue.

What am I missing? It all looks the same as ever to me. And I am experienced in fonts and things.

This is odd. The font on the main page looks smaller, but the font itself still presents as what I believe to be Arial.

For those not seeing the pages correctly, do you have Arial installed?

Yep - I have arial installed. I think the font has defaulted to Tahoma though (this is tahoma)

The capital 'I' is different

I like the new font.

I agree with the above, just not the kerning of it all, the letter spacing hurts my eyes!

Has it changed again this morning? It looks smaller as do the avatars.

It's all too confusing.

Pathetic? Jesus H Christ, it's a font and it's not even a huge change. Some people will whinge about absolutely anything.

I preferred the font size that we had yesterday, I think. Although this isn't too bad.

Oh yeah, outrage/scandal/disgrace etc. How very dare you and stuff. Grrr...
