It is perfect in IE7. There must be some strange font mojo going on with Fire Fox's font+point size. It could also be related to your display resolution. I am running 1920x1200 on my laptop and it all looks good.

I don't think it's a function of screen resolution. I just changed my resolution to 1920 x 1200 and there was no change in the font/point size.

All I know is the pages load nice and FASTTTTTT :-)

Fonts in the forums look good to me in FF. Front page is a little big, but nothing that is too crazy. I'm at 1400x1050. Not that it matters...

To make sure FF is at the default text size, hit ctrl+0 to reset it to normal. Under view>Text Size

Found a bug.

At the top of a topic view, there is a link that says "Page x of x"

If you click it, it prompts for a page number. I've been on page one and type 2 in the popup box, got a 404. Was on the second page, put a 1, got a 404. Doesn't seem to work.

Looks like for putting 2 for the page, it throws a &start=20 in the URI, but it should be 'URL'-20.html

Thanks, fixed. You'll need to clear your browser cache to see the change.

Works now... Does PHPBB Use Mod_Rewrite for that or were some variables turned off? Just curious 8)

No, phpBB doesn't use rewritten URLs, it's a mod. I'm not sure that was the "right" fix, but it was the right now fix.

Lots of site fixes this morning; nice work! I'm still seeing major font size differences between Explorer and FireFox. Forums and Marketplace are fine, but the home page and the other tabbed items (Reviews etc.) display with a significantly larger font in Firefox. I can match the font size with 2-3 Ctrl-- but then the banner and other items are too small.

Again, kudos to Dan (and Joey and DaveW) for all the hard work on this migration - and for the spectacularly fast response time wrt bug fixes!

Try move your head up and down while you look at the screen and notice the change in color depths and contrasts :mrgreen:

Odd missing quote and smiley in Jacob's recent post on the Cyncra thread. May not be related to the migration.

check the last post.

did there used to be a [ youtube ] style BBCode?

EDIT, I see it above the text box, but that post still doesn't parse it.

I'm sure it is. It seems that in any forum a regular user can't create a topic, they can't do any of the additional posting options, such as smilies, BBCode, etc. Check the attached picture. Knockbox, The Bench, Marketplace, FAQs and Favorites, and Article Feedback all have these features disabled for me in any post replies.

Weird, Even though my pic is 761px wide, it's cut off and there's no scrolling option to see the far right in FF.

Also, if I upload a picture, but do not place it inline, shouldn't it show up as an attachment?

EDIT: Added the HB Tamp PNG as a test, it doesn't show up in the thread as being there, but in my Edit Post dialogue, it shows as an uploaded image.
