I voted positively.

The only minor complaint I have is the wasted space in a post between the signature and the actions (Quote & Reply | ...)

I'm reserving the right to judge later - maybe it'll grow on me.

1. it's just a theme. no big deal to me. all of the functions and info displayed on the site are the same. I'm thankful for that, i guess.

2. it's kinda screwy that there are 2 forums at maemo.org now (one under "community">"user forums" and one under "talk"). maybe i missed a thread where this is discussed....

3. i like how the ranking (junior/member/senior) and post count are de-emphasized, as this information is likely to be given too much attention by newbies (and others, maybe) in misguided attempts to figure out who's trustworthy.

The new layout is totally broken when using a minimum font size of 20. Absolutely terrible on my N800.

Please give us back the old classic layout!!

Yeah, the content is still being fixed up and reorganized. It should all be fixed up over the next few weeks.

My 2 cents: I find the new layout too bulky. The margins everywhere are simply too wide for comfort. Also, I find a forum's thread list extremely unpleasant to read due to each thread having the look of a distinct item, rather than the whole thing being a more traditional table.

However, I'm fine with the colors/look. Thus, I went with "I like the new theme" but with "I hate the new layout" in the poll.

I'll have to admit that at first glance the old sphincter snapped shut like a cigar cutter, but that was pro'ly just my anal retentive reaction to change...

Because of my resistance to change I began using the new site in hyper- critical mode. I went looking for all the reasons why I already hated it...

Guess what? The more I used it the more I liked it.

It takes awhile to get to know where things are but overall it is more intuitive and works well in both the tablet browser and with a multi-tab desktop browser.

Kudos to whoever is responsible.

BTW the layout is very similar the new layouts used by most forums these days... the difference being though is that > useful "Active Topics" side bar you see over yonder is usually filled with ads for "Hot Singles in Your Area" and "Natures Way viagra substitute".

I like it...
