Is this better?

Note: I made this one a .jpg because there is no 'transparent' pixels in this version.

Put them on the right. Definitly. And keep them out of the threads. Definitly.

Other than that, it is nice to be able to check the news quicly.

Re: Forum Changes
 

Oh the temptation to post links to old dead threads...

Re: Forum Changes
 

I'd personally like links to more sections in shrapnel.

Re: Forum Changes
 

Playing silly semantic games is only going to irritate users and customers (no wait, lets be equally foolish and call ourselves something else - what about 'Shrapnel down line testers' or 'Shrapnel co-funders').

And the boards just look ugly at the moment.

Re: Forum Changes
 

Especially the sidebar. Folks, why don't you just move it to the right now, OK? Or the top, EVEN better. I think many people would greatly appreciate that.

Re: Forum Changes
 

The top would be terrible. There is already way too much space wasted at the top. The bottom would be fine though.

Re: Forum Changes
 

Ok. Bottom or right. Though I do think that for now, you should also try to compress the "we have made a change to the forum" text, perhaps skip the line breaks to avoid FOUR useless lines of text that could easily fit into one page-wide sentence instead of pushing the actual thread downwards and providing for much ugly empty space...?

Re: Forum Changes
 

Or put the "its not an ad bar" in between every 3rd post. It would only take up a line or two, still get your message across, but give us back all the space that is wasted.
