My personal grievance is that I hate signatures. They just get in the way of the simplicity that was great in the original forums. If the blocks on the left are so huge, is there a way to use them for sigs? I hardly use mobiles so I have no idea how the changes affect that experience.

galleri's sig is a bag of fluff!

You can hide signatures, though i'm not done with the options page yet

It isn't above in desktop! It's to the side! assuming you don't have a super-thin browser window!

are you ZOOMED OUT? try resetting your zoom level?

Because if the names are on top, there *shouldn't be* a post count showing =/

I'm also on 1280x1024 screen size, and I don't have the issue of the name/post count showing above posts unless I zoom out (Ctrl+Numpad+ to zoom in, Ctrl+Numpad- to zoom out, or Ctrl+MouseScrollwheel). Using Firefox.

I would really like to zoom out 1x, but it messes up the display by putting the names on top. Otherwise, I think I'd run these forums at 90% and it'd look really nice.

The new forums would be easier to tolerate if I could read the start of posts by hovering my mouse over the topic, just like the old days.

I'm using my android phone right now and it validates the redesign entirely :-)

Sorry, haters! I may do a more minimalist desktop look and style but this will grow on you after using it for a while.
