Here's how the forums look for me:

Note that the titles in the blue boxes on the left are uneven in addition to the spacing problems in the forum headers. I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.6 at 1280 x 1070. Desktop Display fonts are set to normal size. My Firefox fonts are set to to use Arial with a minimum font size of 16.

The main wincustomize page has spacing problems too but that's another thread.

I'm sorry, but we can't predict, nor allow for every custom font configuration out there. With a default install of Firefox 1.5.0.6 the forums look exactly as they should. The discrepencies with the layout you're seeing are a direct result of Firefox either ignoring or circumventing the css which dictates that font size.

This probably doesn't count, but the forum appear to be stuck - not updating

There are some database/filesystem issues that T-man is trying to fix at the moment. No ETA either. Please be patient.

I have recently purchased the StarDock suite. I am running Hare 1.5.1 windows accelerator on this XP Pro box. Loading a theme or just a Skin causes an exception and Hare crashes.

that's really got nothing to do with forum bugs, huh?

When I go here, right in the middle of the page is a link that says:

Important notice: Incompatibility with WindowBlinds

open WB configuration, click 'per application' - 'add per application setting' then browse to your dachshund products and add them to be excluded from skinning.

if you have any questions, please start a new post

now, back to the forum bugs

I'm still unable to go directly to the first unread post or directly to my comment after posting, Firefox 1.5.0.6.

Thanks for the help even though my question was poisted in the wrong place.

Back to FORUM bugs.

When I click the users profile and select the option to e-mail it does nothing. This is in the latest version of FF. Works fine in IE7.

Tested working in Firefox 1.5.0.6.

I just noticed that when viewing someone's profile, it says "2005" for the age field. Also, is the name in the last commented by portion (right side) of the recent posts section on the main page supposed to be clickable? When hovering over the name it becomes underlined, but clicking does nothing. Hovering over the name of the original poster (left side) has no effect on it.

I'll have a look at the age field, as it's effecting the forum's info page as well. But the page you've referenced there is on the main wincustomize website, which is a different beast. I'll let dean know about the issue though (he's the guy currently in charge of the wc main website). The nickname thing is like that because we're exploring what to do with that at the moment and a desicion hasnt been made. Until then... just think of it as an extended april fools joke. (kidding, of course)

LOL, alright. It's funny because it was working fine and then last night when I looked at someone's profile it said age: 2005, so I checked my own and sure enough, said the same thing. I might be a little old, but not that old.
