Ok, bikons they are.

May be BF should have the ICONs contest. I am sure there are bunch of amateur and pro graphic artists here. BF admin can put out the specification/requirement, then let BF members vote for the best work. A small gift prize for the winner would be nice.

Worked for me as well.. IE 7.0.5730.13CO on XP. Thank you so very much. BF is readable again.

Been around since 2001 - I didn't even notice all the things so carefully pointed out here. Seems to work fine for this 71 year old guy with his 6 old IE XP computers!! WTF??

a 71 year old codger using "WTF?"

what's the world come to?

Don't know - except my computers seem to work and yours don't! :)

Thank you, that did it and in fact after reading your post I remember this same issue on another forum a couple years ago.

Word wrap does not seem to work for messages. Anyone know a work around?

Deleted.

IE?

What the hell is wrong with you people?

I heard some people don't have a choice at work. Could be a rumor though.

Used to be that the "notification" bar for new PM's was yellow, and easily seen. Now, it's pale blue and easily missed. It's a small thing, but I think it was better when it was yellow.

I need help when I click on post a new thread I go to a new page and a blank white page at that and can't post anything-PLEASE HELP

I fixed the text wrap issue by clicking "Forum Actions" at the top of the page, selecting "General Settings" and then towards the bottom, changing the Message Editor Interface from "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" to "Standard Editor - Extra formatting controls".

It looks like we're sponsored by Ronsonol (lighter fluid brand).

I just made my 1st post in a few daze and the reply window went ZING clean over to the right, almost thought I lost it, refresh didn't change that.

The old icons were plenty fine. There are still boards running v.3 and the only real difference was the attachments manager.

Which was still closing on me when I tried to add pictures a week or so back anyway.

Oh well, it'll get there eventually.

XP SP3 IE8 768mb P4 2.2 GHz Compaq Presario P8656E using onboard video (SiS 650)

Fixed.

So I noticed. Thanks!!

so whatever changed in the last 24 hours has completely ruined my ability to view the forum with IE6. :(

Yeah, I know, it's not even a supported browser anymore, but I'm forced to use it at work, and they recently cancelled a planned upgrade to IE8.

Basically, I see a brief flash of the thread listings in the subforum and then I get a white screen with only the number of pages and the little green box indicating that I've posted in a thread showing. No titles or anything else.

Everything's fine in Safari.

Me too. IE6 at work as well.

no changes since yesterday...

anybody????

The minimum width problem hasn't been fixed. Text is much easier to read at narrower column widths. I would use about 900 pixels if it worked.

This screen shot is 1020 pixels wide (in the original: this is scaled down). The text should be wrapping at the edge, instead of going off screen.

The narrowest width that works is about 1150 pixels:

On the Forums page, mousing over the newest post on a forum gave a brief first paragraph, enough to decide whether I wanted to enter that forum and read the entire thread.
Now we've returned to the "you want it, go read it" message. It was the only improvement that I could see. Gone now.
A very minimal point to ***** about, I'll admit. But somebody had to decide that particular function should be worse, not better.

This does not work for Firefox when Firefox is set up only to be part of the screen.

Please fix.

Zoom out 2 clicks under View>zoom out>zoom outand scroll gets very minimal. The only drawback is he text is TINY, then. :( It does help some though until we get this fixed.
