    Preview Post is still there, but you need to be in the full reply mode (ie. not a quick reply)... As far as the server time. Mine is showing EDT -4, which is spot on with my clock in the corner.

    And yes - it should be faster. We've moved to newer and faster hardware on the backend.

      I change my time setting to GMT -5 and that fixed it.
      Although technically EDT is supposed to be UCT -4 and
      EST is supposed to be UCT -5.
      My PC clock in the corner is currently showing 8:12PM as I post this. My forum post time is showing 8:08 PM. Thats before I edited this message to add this comment.
      Thanks

        Not gonna lie, and don't take it the wrong way, but I'm not sure I like the layout. Avatar/info section is too wide and I've never been a fan of this type of layout, probably why I don't get on cp.com much. I'll get used to it though. Nice work on the transfer, wasn't much downtime at all!

          Looks great team! Thanks for all the hatd work. Would love to have a small sticker or two of the new logo.

          The only glitch I've noticed is with Tapatalk. When I go to the 'participated' tab the most recent post is from 2010. All the others are older and there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which posts are listed.

              I've replicated the Tapatalk issue as well. Odd. I've got a thread on their forums to see if they can look. I found a thread that talked about the same issue back in April, but they said it was resolved in one of the newer releases.

              As far as layout, etc... we've got the ability to change all of that... And I agree. The blank space on the side of the userinfo in posts does look odd. I'll see what we can do to tweak that.

                I really liked the feature to see new post on the old site, is there a way to see the new post on this version?

                  I've changed the link color to black, is that better?

                    Under the top toolbar (Home/Forum/Chat), when you're in the forum itself, the first option says "New Posts"... Is that not it?

                          It's nice, really! A few new things to play with, really starting to dig it. Any chance you could link iTrader on the main bar at the top?

                            Me too. I've got a company that I work with looking into getting them cut, along with some regular FF.com stickers as well for those who donated to make this upgrade/change possible.

                                All I can ever see is the unformatted site, and 404 errors.
