The curved tabs look fine on the current firefox3 nightly. they're only the new style on the forum, so I'm assuming the other site headers haven't been uploaded yet smile

Ooo, its quite suprising how much difference thats made!

The second sign of madness is having hair on the palms of your hands by the way.

The third sign is looking for it!

Hi Malcolm,

I noticed that the forums are now much wider (I have a significant amount of sideways scrolling to do now) whereas this was not the case before. My browser is IE 6.

HTH,

Ha Ha what a random change, what was the reason behind the change Malcolm, I hope your not having a mid-life crisis and finding the need to rearrange your sock draws too, or build a shelf or something wink.

Looks good though, works on my PC/Firefox version 2.0.0.14

Since this switch I am experiencing a *huge* lag on HoP. Including the page stalling out in the middle of scrolling.



Anyone else experiencing this?



(I have fast service and only this problem on HoP so I know it's not my comp. wink )



Edit:

I've been paying attention to how it loads and it is a loading lag. I can even see when it is applying "nifty corners", not only in the loading-process bar but also where the tabs look square and then end up cut off.

It's a good 10-15 sec lag for it to load, and again, this is the only site that does it and only since the upgrade. frown

Smear dissappears after a few seconds.

Pele, OWD - Use firefox wink



I have Firefox and IE and find them suitable for different purposes.

For viewing discussion boards, I use IE, cos I've got an image blocker installed which makes the pages load much quicker by cutting out smilies, avatars and other junk (I'm on dialup- don't tell me to get broadband cos I'm still waiting for a UK broadband provider that isn't run by scamming sharks smile)

Firefox - install webdev toolbar, then you can easily disable images at any time.

adblock plus is also invaluable.

as is noscript but that makes some browsing a bit more of a hassle as your still approving things but it makes for unparalleled security.



I don't see any problem with ie7/vista and the curved tabs here.

I've used noscript for a while- it's very useful.

Thanks for the link for the webdev image disabler- I've been looking for something like that smile

Orange, virgin, tiscali etc- they're all got a portion of customers who swear by them and who've had no big problems- equally, they've all got a portion of extemely dissatisfied ex-customers who consider them to be extremely poor.

Broadband, from the considerable amount of research I've done, is a total lottery in the UK.

I know the time is coming when I'll end up switching, but, for now, my dial-up account fulfills my no.1 criteria, which is reliability.

Fair enough.

Mr Yakumo ( hug ) we havent had any of those problems. I 443 the utorrent traffic anyway which seems to help. No billing problems, not instant messaging problems, no more problems with their support staff than I have encountered with other companies.
