That dropdown menu looks weird.

Other than that, looks great!

[edit]:

Minimum post hight looks too tall. Single space that text, perhaps?

Looks fine to me.. It has always looked like this. Unless I am seeing something different

I like the skin, it looks good but I need to get used to it. It seems as if the main page got a lot more attention and everything fits more as one. However, I do know this is still BETA and a lot of changes will happen so I'm waiting patiently. :)

Closed the site for a while and opened it now again. The skin is awesome, I litteraly dropped my jaw!

One note though: Could you please make the "sticky" topics stand out more from the rest? There is no clear difference between normal and sticky posts. A simple divider would solve the problem.

EDIT

Where can I find my control panel to change my avatar, signature of other information? It isn't under the option "Control Panel".

People, you can still easily tell a stickied thread because of the "sticky" icon next to it. If people weren't reading these threads & wasting moderator's time by posting questions which could easily be found in these threads or rules, then it makes sense.

You can still easily tell a stickied thread from a regular one because of the icon.

Maybe. The bars separating the lines looked a lot darker and thicker on my eeePC last night.

low color depth kinda trashes it.

It does look different than Shift.

Not reading all the pages here, but I like it. My only gripe is the missing Games and Software tabs which you could hover over to see the latest entries. I'd rather not leave the forums page just to check them when I could just hover over it.

That's the only thing I don't like as well. Same with the Blogs.

I like the vBulletin way of presenting stickies this way. Now people don't just scroll over them by default and actually have to check them out.

But it's infuriating trying to find the first non-pinned thread. I've seen and read the stickies, I don't need them to keep getting in my way. If people do break the rules by ignoring the important threads, that is their problem.

I honestly really don't find them that hard to skip over the way they are in Finity. Pretty easy for me, actually.

Well, good for you, but for me there isn't enough distinction between pinned threads and regular ones. Even giving stickies a different background colour would work, just something to separate them from the rest of the topics.

    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
    • It's growing on me, however, your right, it make better usability sense if the tabs were bellow the address bar.
    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
    • I don't believe them that anyone using threads, at least meaningfully. It's the same thing for Facebook, people just don't engage with Meta platforms like they are thinking. This isn't 2006.
