Looks like they are back already Katy.
Loving the new slimline side bars too.
Cheers Tom

It was only for a very short time today Amanda.

I see the location is back too. That's good. I had been missing that.

I broke the tickers when I was trying to fix the 'Show topic titles in links' thing. Then I saw Ali's response about tickers, which is when I noticed it. Then I fixed it again quickly :)

I kind of have to rewrite some of the plugins as they are no longer being worked on, so I am working on that now :)

Love the "roller blind" thing at the bottom of the reply box.  It does the same job as the old + sign did, Vicki, to make the reply box bigger or smaller. Not sure if it works on the phone as I'm on the PC right now.
Not on the quick reply box though.

Tom, your work is truly appreciated!! Thank you for the time you are putting in tweaking your 'other BW baby'! :-*

Thanks Tom!

I've literally only just noticed the sidebars after reading the comment about them!  Much better!

Thanks Tom. The side bars are much better. I hope it is not too ungrateful to say I still only have about 4 words per line on my phone as the screen is half avatar and half text. It was easier to read when the avatar got over lapped by the text.

Maybe you need a better phone KM?  :P Mine has about a quarter avatar and 3/4 text. Turn your phone landscape and you can enjoy the widescreen effect.

Maybe I do Ali, but even landscape it splits it half and half...

I still only have about 4 words per line on my phone as the screen is half avatar and half text.

That sure sounds odd. What phone do you have? Do you have it 'zoomed in' on the page? Do you have another device you can take a picture of it with so we can see what you see?

On my phone, the avatar is about 1/5 - 1/4 of the width and then plenty of text on each line. If I pinch-to-zoom I can make the avatar fill half the screen such that I can only read a few words at a time, but that's not really the way to view pages. If I double tap the text area it zooms into that area nicely so it can be read(I am on Android though, not sure if the iPhone does this).
