Some test on the new site:
Font Color

Some Code:

Code

<?php 
$link = mysql_connect('hostname','dbuser','dbpassword'); 
if (!$link) { 
	die('Could not connect to MySQL: ' . mysql_error()); 
} 
echo 'Connection OK'; mysql_close($link); 
?>

Woo, this is definitely more mobile-friendly!

Liking the new look, but the amount of space to write posts is pretty small. (Typing area highlighted in red)

I know. It is a bug, it will be fixed soon.

I agree. There should not only be a box around the area, or some other way of defining the area, but it should be larger. The typographic options take up more space than the text editing area. And you can only see one line at a time while typing. Instead of all the typographic options being spelled out in words, why not have icons representing the various options, along with hover popups.

The website is 100% mobile friendly, the forum is 85% or so mobile friendly.

It is a bug. This is due to some issue with forum skin directory. It will be fixed.

The forum structure and the descriptions are very different from the proposal which I believed was agreed on.
Is that intentional?

(left is the proposal, right is current)

(edit: the entry for Wishlist is missing from this proposal screenshot since it had accidentally been removed)

[Steven]

yes as mentioned previously i will look at that as a separate step after we are sure everything else is ok

Ok. I had missed that.

@hiccup how is everything looking with edgy fonts?

This is very eerie AvikB!
You can mind-read from a very long distance....

Just as you posted this, I was creating a post with a screenshot on this matter.
Here are a few area's that seem not to have the replacement font yet:






But first, congrats, and thanks a lot for all your work and effort getting this new forum live!!!
