I find this BB hard to read

Agree -- there is too much of other stuff as well, the text field is like tiny on 18'' monitor. With all ezboard shortcomings it was easy to read messages.

Also, emoticons are just crap

There's nowt wrong with this one

Problem is to much of the page is dedicated to "non post" text, when i first load a thread nearly 3/4 of the initial viewing area is not the actual thread

Also with the whole CUK navigation over there>>>>
And the massive amount given to poster information over there (plus the huge margin)<<<
it leaves very little room here in the center
One or the other has to go imo

My personal recomendation is an abriviated CUK navigation in wasted blue area above the board navigation.

Plus do we really need "Contractor UK Bulletin Board" and "Contractor UK Forums" on the breadcrumbs on top, seeing as they both go to pretty much same place? (plus taking it out of the silver box and making it plain text would give back a lot of space)

Also is it possible to do away with the spacing (and silver box's) between posts? more wasted space

CUK in Classic Mode guys?

Some poor designer is now sobbing into his keyboard.

The useless gobshine.

Yeah -- put some ads between posts: you will make a fortune

Ay curumba!

I must admit I've spent most of my time staring at DimPrawn's avatar this morning...

Non Work Friendly Avatars

Now I have a problem with this. If Dim and the likes are going to use naked lady type avatars, then how the hell are people in the office going to be able to read the board?????????

Go to User CP, thread Display Options, and uncheck "Show avatars".
