    That's much better. The separator line is much more prominent, and the highlight behind the quoted material is very obvious. Thanks, Jim.

This one blends in with the board a little better at the bottom of a post where you thank someone, and your stats are right in your postbit (after you post, to the right of your name and avatar). But still no way to search. A few developers stated this will be available in future release, so we'll just have to wait a bit.

    IMO, while I think the "thanks" is a nice option, and nice to see people thanking you under your posts, it's a bit redundant with the reputation system.
    I thought the same at first. Now I see it as an enhancement. Keep it.

    You said you didn't like Firefox, and that you weren't using AOL's browser. Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, what version exactly? If another browser, please let me know! It's definitely something on your end as you are the only one experiencing this issue. I'll do my best to help you troubleshoot it. Off to get a coffee first and be right back though!

    You need IE8 for the new version of vBulletin to render properly, which is why you probably often see tables out of whack or stretched. Try upgrading to IE8 which is now recommended for all PC's regardless:

    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/int...r/default.aspx

    Odd that the latest version of FF would do the same, that's what myself and a lot of others are using, without the issue you are seeing. But let's attack one issue at a time, starting with IE which I would recommend upgrading whether you had the issue here or not.

    Blue border with gray interior is what we are shooting for. It sounds to me like the "tables" are not rendering properly. Things are likely being shoved all the way to the right or all the way to the bottom. I've seen it before and it's always the forum software, mismatch in pertinent software, or problem with receiving PC. I doubt it's your PC since you have no issue anywhere else. I doubt it's the forum software as everyone should then experience the issue. That leaves us with the browser, which is the easiest to try and fix at the moment anyway.

    I agree. On another site, they also have a 'thumbs down' option. I like that better than rep, as I don't like to ding folks, just show disagreement.

    The thumbs up is very nice when you are out of repping someone positively, but want them and others to know you agree.

    Another thing worth mentioning to anyone having ANY weird issues on the forum - make sure you empty your browsers cache and delete your cookies. You might have remnants still cached from the old version.

    Is it still doing it now? Can you also delete your cache and cookies and then log back in again and continue testing?
