Mine still won't switch back..

Everything but the homepage goes back to the original format.. hmm..

The homepage is hard coded. All the rest is user set.

I fixed the background today after someone commented that it was too bright.

It had been a while since we changed the format and I had some time due to a back injury and started playing.

Any comments?

Home page back to the old or should it be in a wide format?

Should we start a poll?

Gary, you know that users always ask for site improvements, and then they complain whenever there's a makeover because they are not used to it.

That being said, is there any way to reduce the depth of the main ad section at the top? Or collapse it? The forums section is now completely below the fold.

Can't you change the code for the Homepage so that we can choose what we want, just like the rest of the site??

With Opera it looks fine but it's not my cup of tea

New style looks fine with Safari. Personally, however, prefer the "classic" Opel GT style, but if the new makes things run better, smoother, etc., its OK. If just cosmetic, I'll keep mine set to the classic.
THANKS!
