For some reason everything looks bigger...is this normal?

Yes, it grows as you age.

EDIT: I agree with him tho, it does look bigger.

I thought I'd share a Windows 7, Firefox 17 screen shot of the home page. Are the ads shown from a list?

Just part of the Google Adsense program

The text looks bigger. I like it. :)

My Microsoft gets hazy at this point but I wondered if there was something to do with dot net?

That's incredibly cute.

Could at least the "welcome text" and "stay connected box" be lined out to match the rest of the page layout? Now they're at different heights and that looks messy.

What the.. Are we even looking at the same page?

The text seems smaller over here.

... Well, now that I'm used to it, it looks the same--unless there has been some change done... BUT I remember it looked smaller yesterday..
Sigh, nevermind.

The sidebar has always been misaligned lol :)

It's looks a bit weird. Everything seems very tight. I would like some space between the forum tree (the one that says "PF>Lounge>FFA...) and whatever's below that.

Don't view on a tiny screen :D

Some of us use tiling window managers. :D

That's an excuse to misalign other content as well?

Could you have a look at my screenshot? I wonder why my logo looks so ugly, also a pre-existing condition that I've tried to suppress.. but since we're now discussing the header..

I see the sidebar being about 5-6px too high. Is that what you are referring to?

Your images are definitely screwy. Looks like the color palette is reduced as the gradients aren't coming through. What browser are you using?

Currently when you look at the homepage the right column starting from "Welcome, " is too high. Not sure how many pixels, but if you're planning to keep it like this it shouldn't be too difficult to adjust it? All the screenshots that were posted have this deviation.

I use Safari, but it's the same in Firefox. I have a virtual machine with Windows and also there in IE the image looks messed up. I have OSX version 10.6.8 and checked the display color profile, but that doesn't help.

I've not encountered problems on any other website, I thought everyone was seeing the logo like that until I saw the screenshots of others

Ok something's wrong here. I just logged in but the header says I'm not logged in, but I can still browse mine (and others) profiles as if I were logged in. The green dot near my name show that I'm online, but the header says I'm not.

Ubuntu Studio 12.04, Firefox

Guests can view profile pages. All I can say is try clearing your cache and cookies. Restart the browser make sure "remember me" is checked. Let's see what happens.

Haha ok I logged out and logged back in after restarting the browser and it isn't happening anymore. But I guess I ruined this page after putting up that screenshot XD.

 

[Monique]

Greg, what did you do?? You fixed the gradient bug in my header!

I wished upon a falling start last night :D

 

[drizzle]

Why not fixing mine too? I have to minimize the page size to have everything in its original place. Otherwise it's a mess. I can adapt to the size change, but I have to do this every time I log in/open PF page.

I just found this. Not a result of my browser.

Maybe I'm being dumb, but what's the problem here?

You're not, I am. I was thinking the Announcement should have appeared on top. Never mind.

 

[PAllen]

Clearly, the science joke links should be at the very top. Let's get our priorities right.
