For all of those who miss the old style and want it as soon as possible for the new one (and if mr. xsim/etc. want to you guys can rip my cheap hack
), heres a CSS listing that you can put into stylish (Firefox Extension) or userPrefs.css in Firefox to override the site's look. I got it about as close as I could to what we have over here, but I can't even login or post/reply, so I can't tell you what those areas look like

Oh, and no offense, but I'm not the biggest fan of the coding style used....
We will make the layout choosable in the user profile and i'm sure we can work it out so you can use custom CSS.
As far as coding style i'm assuming you mean how everything is inlined, including the CSS and javascript. I agree, that's dirty, but it is our beta phase still and for simplicity we did it that way. That's how the CMS it runs on atm works easiest.
I'm sure your CSS 'rip' will be appreciated by some, but remember we are still cleaning the UI up on the forums. The first run was an excellent test of the data conversion that went over better than expected.
We truly appreciate everyone's feedback. We at osdever have used MT zealously for years and we want to only improve. We want to make our communities stronger. The larger the community the easier it will be to help eachother. DF and the mods will be around still too, but the burden of bandwidth and time to manage the forums will be lightened.
I honestly believe everyone will be impressed with the new forums. I hope everyone will continue to help us and work toward an improved community for osdev. I know a couple of you mentioned you wanted the forums to stay here, but sometimes its good to embrace change. It allows for adjustments to be made where they are sorely needed. OSdev specific forums might be one of those adjustments.
Remember, strength in numbers, strength to the meak. Let's work together and we will all come out on top of what is surely a good thing.
