    The new layout on SSRG is actually very nice, but this...

    ...is just annoying. Isn't there a way to disable this?

    I like how the websites coming along but I think we should have the project screenshots on the other side or the Kuiper Belt area the same size as the main forum area is. Does that make sense?

    It was just some experimenting I did at 5am in the morning. I was planning to move it to the right instead of the left, just wanted to get an idea of how it would look, then I went to bed. I'll work on it some more today. I was also planning on allowing people to disable it, don't worry.

    What about having it go horizontally instead of vertically?

    Nice little feature, but yeah, making it float to the right would be a better idea since the Catagories would all be lined up correctly. =P

    How about not having it at all! It's annoying.

    Thank fuck. What I'm seeing is worse visually than what Selbi posted, I'm getting table clash.

    Yes, I'm giving up working on it for now since my connection is so slow today there's no way I can work on it smoothly. I'm not going to keep destroying the front page for 5mins as it loads for me to check it.

    See, this is why I use the (massively better) classic skin. It's bright, clear and not full of shit.

    Am I the only one for whom DalekSam's whole post is showing up highlighted in bright unreadable white for some reason?


    Something new Qjimbo added? Heh.

    Yeah it's post moderation, I enabled it after the slurry of silly posts in this forum. Just click the tick by the post, then "Set Visible" to approve a post.


    Post moderation has now been removed seeing as everything has blown over. Feel free to post here again, we genuinely appriciate your honesty with things that are happening here. There was no intention of censoring people's opinions, only silly pointless posts that were being made in this forum.


    I apologize if I gave anybody the wrong impression.

    I enjoy the new layout. I like seeing new screenshots as they're posted in the thread, and it's nice that people can jump right to the new questions.


    EDIT: I am NOT liking the new fonts that are being put up every where.

    I'm guessed that the fonts are used to make it look more Web 2.0, even though the Thumbnail is a nice idea I think you should change to a better font, it just looks a little strange.
