When you click on a post's number (to open the post in a new window/tab), the post is shown with the weirdest formatting. Tiny text, all centered, gray background... very weird...

My answer for this question is: I am used to the old format. Give me an option to use the old format, and let me move to the new format at my own time. Otherwise, you leave me no choice but to get used to the new format.

Specifically, I'd like to have a minimalistic theme with black text on white background.

Can a classic theme be made so it looks like it used to? I dont like minimalistic and too much orange on the talk.maemo.org.

Now that is weird. FF 3.0.9 on both PC and Mac renders the broders correctly. I guess it happens on the main maemo.org site too?

Good catch. That is definitely something I missed. I'll work on that tonight. Thanks.

People, I think you should stop bugging Reggie about the aesthetics of this new theme. This is the theme that the maemo.org team developed, completely in the open, completely transparently, over the course of many weeks. There were lots of requests for input on the color scheme and the style of buttons, etc. We've all known that ITT is going to become talk.maemo.org and adopt the maemo.org theme. This shouldn't be a huge shock!

Focus, in this thread, on bug-fixing and getting the new theme working in all situations.

I think we should start a new thread discussing the possibility of "skinning" the whole maemo.org site. I think it would be cool if logged in people could change the theme elements. I mean, we're talking CSS here, it can't be terribly difficult...

At the very least, give it a week or two before anybody starts major style changes. Most of the reactions here are the typical sort of knee-jerk "OMG things changed!" reactions you get with stuff like this, and most of them will be resolved simply by waiting.

That said, Reggie, how do you feel about a Bugzilla component for tracking bugs and enhancement requests?

Drugs and perhaps beatings seem like valid options. :D

I don't have the problem with iceweasel.


I tried on konqueror. Looks like something wrong in the css hell.
See attached.

Also why is png upload limited to 19k and jpg to 97k? Never understood this one in fact :)

CHANGE IT BACK!! Or give me an option to at least view it that way.

I don't like the color's
I don't like the layout

Can we just get Reggie to start a new site that doesn't have to look like this? :D

I may be able to get over the layout, however annoying it has become. But the ugly colors, its as ugly as the n800 when it was announced.
