Re: Please bear with us while we upgrade.

It's not really a bug, more of a visual preference. To me, the various sub-forums listings appear quite large. Having the thread title, last poster, and last post date all on seperate lines forces each subforum to have quite a bit of white space around it. I'd like to maybe reformat that somehow so that each forum doesn't take up quite as much space.

Also related, sub-forums (such as the performance, non-performance, and problem diagnosis under Chevrolet Cavalier) take up a simiar amount of space as well as the sub-forum header breaks the continuity of the page. It just looks strange. I'd like to see somethink like on this page under the Dish Network forum where the sub-forums get something like a bullet point.

Re: Please bear with us while we upgrade.

The last few days I have been getting an error once in a while that says "The server has timed out." At first I thought it was my ISP but then I realized all other sites worked except for AF in which I would get that error message.

Re: Please bear with us while we upgrade.

Tradional AF style is being restored and is now the default for AF. However, if you scroll down to the page, you will notice that the previously used style is also available.

Re: Please bear with us while we upgrade.

Hey Igor-
Any chance of scaling down the font size on usernames - some of the longer ones are causing pages to be formatted strangely. This may be a known issue or a work in progress, but I thought I would add it here.

I haven't seen any other issues so far. Keep up the good work for us!

Re: Please bear with us while we upgrade.

I've encountered an issue over the past few days where I click on "Automotive Forums" which I have saved in my Bookmarks in Mozilla browser, and a window appears that says,"automotiveforums.com cannot be found". If I click 'ok' the box disappears and I click the AF line in my Bookmark again, and the site then comes up. It doesn't happen all the time I click on the bookmark, and it last happened to me this afternoon.
