If you're having problems, then it is probably with some sort of extension -- the site looks nearly identical in all browsers.  But I can't help if you don't tell me what's actually getting blocked (I know at least Adblock will tell you if you click its button).

It didn't load up properly when I first visited, but after I logged in, it started working fine. Looking good, I'll have to poke around it a bit.

Might clearing out the cookies help with those with display issues?

Shouldn't matter, but it could be that some old CSS was cached or something... that would explain the layout problems.

By the way, we are still finding a lot of small bugs, and Aaron will be working throughout today to address these. He's already had a long day and it's not over yet! Wish him luck!

I like having the comments right there. Maybe we can get more vict-I mean readers posting on the boards.

This looks really, really incredible.  This is already my favorite site because it's the most honest and personal, but it's exciting to see a new look as well.  Thanks so much for all your hard work!  ;D

I'd like to add my comments to the chorus of praise.   This is a fantastic redesign, and the tech staff at NWR has really outdone themselves.

BnM - A forum redesign is "on the roadmap".  I know that's kind of a B.S. answer but trust me, we know that the forums don't really match the site at the moment. We want to get the site proper squared away, but now that the redesign is live we can start looking at things like that.

I'd like to extend my thanks to everybody involved, especially Aaron and Ryan Jones.  They did a kick ass job with the site, and this is a huge milestone for NWR.  I hope everybody enjoys it, and bears with us while we work out the kinks.

Either way I really like the whole new NWR 2.0 look. I would love to see what you have planned as far as a forum redesign that matches the front page.
Would that even be possible?

It's nice, but I have to admit I loved the old look and was really used to it.

The redesign is fantastic, but I have one criticism. The items in the Previews and Impressions section should indicate which of the two each one is. I'm usually much more interested in impressions than I am in previews, and it would help me out to know which is which. As it is, I'd probably just stick with the Talkback section of the forums, which does make this clear, but I'd rather be able to do it in this great new interface.

They're labeled separately everywhere but the main page listing, but we'll think about it.

It seems like it would be simple enough to add it to the thing that shows up when you put your mouse over one of them.

While I love the Web 2.0 ness have you uh, have you seen what the layout fucking looks like in Safari? I think you need to get back to suing some W3C standard markup language.

Seriously right now it's fucked.

I am not completely sold on this myself. It's a bit too "dense" for my liking.

It's alright though, since I get the headlines primary through RSS.

The front page login is good stuff.

edit - Oh, one more thing, good work replacing that flash based headline banner.
