Do you like the new EF look?

I don't have the energy...

Some of you guys must have some tiny-ass monitors on your computers.

No, I have a 19" diagonal monitor, but it's older, and not a flat screen, plus I have it set for pretty big resolution ... if I set it to a smaller pixel value I can see the whole forum but I can't anything else. I'm already destroying my near vision by spending too damn much time in front of the computer for my work, I don't need to speed the process up.

The profile list of subscribed threads is pretty fakakta all the way around. It used to just show the ones that have been updated since my last logon, now it shows about a week's worth of history, with no way to tell the updated ones from the stale ones.

yep, that's irritating. I'm not sure what's my fault and what's a new feature sometimes. I have no idea how to use the icons at the bottom. I guess somebodys gonna have to show this old dog a new trick, it's very hard to do.

Glasses. They really work.

I'm 52 years old, presbyopic, and I use a 21" monitor set to 1600x1200. I can't stand seeing 800x600 or 1080x800 blown up on a big screen with huge icons and an inch-thick taskbar.

Screw that shit, my husband has presbyopia and he tried those progressive lenses, drove him apeshit. I have degenerative disc disease in my neck, tilting my head to see higher or lower is only going to cause me pain in the long run. I can see perfectly fine at normal reading distance, I've just always been near sighted and can't focus on things less than a foot away from my face anymore. So it would be 2 pairs of glasses and as long as I can read and do my work without reading glasses I'm not going there.

George himself said the lack of fluidity is extremely aggravating and is on the To Do list of shit to fix. Right up there with the karma button, I suppose. I'm not the only person complaining about this.

Dime store reading glasses work just fine. Progressive lenses are okay for when you leave the house and need to be able to read a menu AND drive a car, but at home there's no point in them.

I can get used everything else but the font is a poor choice for easy reading, while verdana on the other had is easy as cake on a cheat day to read.

Fonts are an improvement, but I can't get used to the need to scroll side to side. I can either see the entire post, or see the avatar column and lose the right side of a post. When I quick respond the screen eventually centers on the post so I can't see what I'm typing on either end unless I take my hands off the keyboard and scroll to the side.

More functionality, streamlined look, better separation between sections. Nice work guys.

I like the Web 2.0 gradients and text too. It gives the site a more up to date look.

I am already sick of hearing about web 2.0.
