    I increased the font size from 11px to 12px. Let me know if that helps.

    Yes. If you leave off the www it brings you to benruset.com. Another thing I should put on my to-do list.

    What I could really go for

    I just finished a bottle of Mexican Coca-Cola. The Wegmans by me here in Princeton sells them. It's regular coke, but in a thick glass bottle with a painted label, and instead of being sweetened by HFCS it's got pure cane sugar instead. It's like drinking a slice of the 1950's.

    I just increased the width of the forums and front page to 1050 pixels wide. Now you'll need a monitor that does at least 1280x1024 (which are high end 17" and 21" and up) otherwise you'll see scroll bars. I'll run it this way for a while and see if folks complain. Edit: I bet state workers who...

    I made the forums and front page a bit wider. I need to fix the front page now because it looks a little crappy with that extra space to the right of the stories. Yes, I noticed that. It's on my list of things to adjust. If you hover over the link it will show that it's a link but I agree that...

    Sorry, I misunderstood you. I broke out all of those links into a secondary navigation menu which now sits under the main one all the time. Should be easier for everyone to access now. Thanks!

    What I could really go for

    Some BBQ (preferably with brisket) and maybe a cold beer or some of Scott's crazy juice.

    Thanks!! Let me ask the Xenforo support folks and see if this is something that can be brought back or if there's a workaround. It is a feature they're working on and currently is in testing with a number of email clients. Look at this post to see how it will eventually look (and then further...

    Thanks. It certainly wasn't my intention to ruffle any feathers or rain on anybody's parade with the upgrade to the new forum software. The fact of the matter is that I was pretty much done with running vBulletin, which in my opinion is just a mess right now and I bought a Xenforo license as...

    Well, rest assured that I'm not tracking anybody or compiling marketing data for anything. :)

    Yeah, page numbers are a little small. I can look at making them a bit bigger. Headings should be really big already. Can you attach a screen shot of what you're looking at?

    46er - The text size for pretty much everything was increased from the old software. Someone else even further up even commented that the text size was larger and easier to read. What text size are you talking about? Menus? Posts? Edit: Also, what browser are you using?

    Well, it's only there for folks that want to have a single signon between NJPB and Facebook. Nobody is forced to use it.

    Okay, so first of all we're talking about an avatar here. I didn't just kick your dog. I just made you a 200x200 image with your avatar centered in the middle. It should look like what you want.

    If you go into your profile you'll see that your avatar looks just fine. On the site, by your post, it displays a 96x96x crop (not a resize, but a crop) of your avatar. When you upload your avatar and move it from side to side you tell the software where you want it to crop to display. I guess...

    Yes. If there's no default avatar then the forum will show a question mark. Xenforo, the software that runs the site now, is very avatar-centric. If you look at a list of threads, instead of thread icons like we had in vBulletin now it shows the avatar of the person who made the thread, ala...

    I wish I hadn't taken down the old forums so I could see what your old avatar looked like over there. What are you hoping your avatar will look like? Full width of the license plate with black bars on the top and bottom? Edit: Send me a link to a post of yours on one of those many other forums...

    Worked for me. I shifted it side to side for a second. But remember you're putting a rectangular image into a square window. You're not going to be able to see the whole thing.

    I don't understand what you're asking for, Bob.
