I also have the same questions as AntV.
Why was the scroll down and up arrows removed from "Latest News"?
How can we scroll down to older articles now?
The same thing was done to the Off-Broadway "Latest News" a while back, and nothing was done to fix it.
Why write and post new articles if only around the last 10-15 posted are available on the main page?
Please fix this important issue, as it strongly affects one of the most important aspects of the site: getting the latest news.
I like how much cleaner it looks, so kudos for that. Agree what was said about the font, it's a bit too bold for my taste.
i might be in the minority but I liked it better before. The crazy bright fire-engine red is super distracting, and I hate how the forum responses only take up the left side of my computer screen.
I totally agree about the forum responses taking up only half the screen. Now I have to keep making the threads part larger just to be able to read it comfortably.

On my primary mobile view (Chrome on an Android device with text scaled to 100%) the board subjects are legible and in bold print, but the author, replies, view, and last post sections are harder to see at a quick glance. If I switch to another browser like Firefox, or toggle desktop mode, it's fine, but that may be a consideration for mobile users.

As a person with two types of color blindness, I am having a lot of difficulty reading the website and the board. The colors, particularly the red, are a big problem for me :o(

It leaves more space for ads now, which I assume was the goal.

Is anybody else have trouble scrolling down to the latest posts on certain threads? I'll scroll, and the page will just loop me back up to the top...

It's Montserrat. Which isn't bolded, but this is how it looks bolded.

Loved it! Much cleaner, modern and less PC consuming. Kudos.
So it's been a week now and I have to admit that I still don't like that I have to read the boards in 33-50% less space than before. Butwhatreally irksmeisthatnow manywords compresstogetherbecaudethey have NO space and it makesitseemlike postersarecarelessand don't know how to write. Please fix!!!
Question: is it possible to move Hot Stories over to the right (read: left-hand) side of the screen so that the forum aspect is more central to the overall design? It will look less cluttered, and everything will still be where you want it to be.
I know you can help me, Alan. You're my only hope.

I would just like to say that this seems a missed opportunity to add a much-needed "last unread post" button to each thread. Makes following a board like this much easier.
Fyi - editing a message does not sometimes give me the same text edit tools instead showing me the HTML version of the actual text.
Bold text here.
We didn't cut any of the board space. It's the same size.
Huh? The main and other topic board used to extend to where you have hot topics now. It's definitely smaller.

I'm having this issue as well. Makes reading anything other than a small sentence very annoying. Here's an example: http://imgur.com/55Vpbsv
I'm on Chrome on an iPhone 5s if that matters.
No complaints here and thank you for the new design!
Is the text font no longer bold for people as of today? I'm a huge fan if they plan to keep it this way...
What do you mean by text font? Do you mean the body text of the messages? It's definitely a lighter weight than it was before, but I never would've thought of it as bold.
Yes, Lizzie, I meant the body text of the messages! And I agree with you that I shouldn't have used "bold" earlier. I do like the lighter weight of it now, though I think the kerning between some of the letters and punctuation is a bit too close...
