Was the extent of this limited to their front door or was our database directly affected?

The database is and was secure, that much I do know. There was no loss of data, and no accessing of any information within the database.

I'll reserve comments about the "style" of the new "upgrade" and just let you know that there now seems to be no way to go to the last page of a thread from the index listings. You can only go to page 6 at most and then you can click on "last" page from there to see the most recent additions to the thread.
Personally I think the software should be smart enough to have a link that will take you to whichever page is new since you last logged on, but at least going to the last page is close enough. Sometimes we just have to backtrack a few pages to pick up where we left off.

I just got a database error while trying to access the Ask Pcad thread.
I have an advertisement in the corner of my screen. Will this go away after a while?

Agreed, I like being able to jump to the last post and last new post. That would be nice to have back.
I wouldn't mind seeing the post counts gone too.
And is my avatar smaller?

In really long threads it's difficult to get to the last page. For example the mercier kilo tt thread in the FG/SS forum is thousands of posts long, and when jumping to the last page you get a database error. This may be related to the issue presented in the older version where the last page of a thread really wouldn't be the last page. The real last page would be a few before. I also miss being able to jump the last page from the index.

crappy UI - UI should indicate features.
i don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but my email notifications no longer work.

Just to add to the dog pile about not being able to get to the end of muti-page threads. With as slow as the site is running to have to opena thread twice is really annoying, and time consuming.

We're working on the issues with thread page, etc right now.

I'm sorry, but I find the background, white space, and font issue to be near unreadable for any extended amount of time. Of course, the connect time between forums and threads does offer some relief.
I also can't seem to be able to "Go Advanced" for replies.

Is there any way to make each post take up less of the page? I could look at like 8 posts previously now I can barely see one. The 'dead space' is insane.

Just freakin' GREAT! I can't go anywhere. The software in not user-friendly. It took me 30 minutes to post THIS!
Out it this way - FIX it, or don't expect another word from me! Phooey!!

No icons are present in left column to indicate status of threads: new, subscribed, locked, etc.
Also no boldface thread titles to indicate if a thread was read or not.

So we're beta testers? How did the focus group react to the suggested new layout and color scheme?

When I try to log in to p&r, with a yes in the box, it either times out or goes to a blank page.
