That may be the coolest glitch I've ever seen! :wtf:

But I'm glad it does go away after a refresh. I'm assuming there's some hick-up when rendering the CSS file and it's displaying the icon, which should load as a single background image, as a continuous background image. Does that happen a lot? Does it happen in different browsers? I'm just curious because I've never seen anything like this. Cool stuff.

Only happened twice. Once in a thread page, and this other time in the "Your Posts" page. I'm using Google Chrome.

The lastest, and probably final, modification I've added to the forum upgrade is the display of the latest poster's avatar. Yea or nay?

I'm going to be the first detractor of this. It's a bit distracting. I hadn't checked if there is an option to disable it just for me yet, but making it optional would be welcome, but I could live with it.

Will take some time to get accustomed to the change, but over all, I'm liking it.

also making user avatars in regular posts bigger would be nice, fill a bit more of that negative space

This … this is one purty update! Likin' it so far!

One suggestion, though: Could you make it so that you can zoom on the forum page (and perhaps the main page, too?) on iPad?

There should be a witty quote or something down here. I'm just not imaginative enough to come up with anything.

That would be awesome. Sucks not being able to zoom in on images when browsing from mobile.

Likewise, the WebM player doesn't seem to resize with the page, so it's often cut off on mobile, too. Dunno if that's even possible to fix, though.

Not sure if it's meant to be that way, but the avatars are not appearing on the comments. Still, it's great to be able to comment there again.

Unfortunately the avatars are no longer synced between the forum and main website. I am hoping to fix that, at some point in the future.

This doesn't have anything to do with the upgrade, but I figured I wouldn't make a thread.

What does it mean when it shows "Last active: -" on a user's profile?
