Mark,
would it be worth constraining the width of the forum page container so that it sits within the boundary of the menu bar as per all the other pages on the site? At the moment to my eye it doesn't look coherent, you've got page widths jumping all over the place. I'm using a 1600 px wide monitor, so I guess that on a smaller one - 1024 px - it wouldn't be a problem. The container/div housing the home page is only 960px wide whereas on the forum it expands to 100%

Hi Ian

Yes, it's something we're going to do (together with the other sections on the site that need to be changed to the new look / format).

Cheers, Mark

I have heard of this problem before on Chrome - I have no idea what causes it (Google didn't help me much in my research!)

I had that, fine one minute and looking out of focus the next. I guess it is a rendering issue of some kind. As to how to fix it I am no website man!

Hi all

I've implemented the latest change on the home page of YachtsandYachting.com

Try scrolling to the bottom of the page and see what happens! Theoretically you can carry on scrolling back to 1995... (please, for your sake, don't try this).

Also all the tabbed news (Dinghy/Keelboat/Industry etc.) now only loads once clicked making the initial page load much faster.

Hope you like the changes!

Cheers, Mark
