I've had some trouble navigating about in A.org too, but have more or less gotten the hang of it. In Firefox, the site looks fine, the prob. seems to be with Ibrowse for me. I got NetSurf running on my 1200T, but its a bit slow on my system to use that much. I also look at the English Amiga Board (http://eab.abime.net/) from time to time, which lays out similar enough in IB that I suspect they're using the same software over there. I'm guessing there's going to be a bit of a shift of ppl from A.org to AW or Amigans who prefer the older interface, and perhaps more Abime ppl coming over here. (Just a guess) I'm on all four, and check the regularly. Not so much here and Abime because of the different interface, but thats just my preference. (If I'm looking for something in particular, I'll still search all 3, and I'm used to using the site: option in google for sites that have incompatible search engines anyway, while hoping they don't have an exclusive bots.txt file) Anyway, as far as the upgrade is concerned, its seems to work fine for me, and what I need out of an Amiga site. The number of sites dropping off the map for Ibrowse is increasing almost exponentially, and that would be the real problem. (To the point, I've considered coding my own browser, more appealing to me than contributing to an existing one, mostly due to my eyes going blurry when trying to read someone elses code)

Kinda funny, when I try the "quick reply" button, It doesn't work in IBrowse unless I drag the link into the URL bar or the window. (Usually the window, just a flick of the wrist between pushing the button and releasing it that way) Not a big deal, and the mods probably have better things to worry about at this point. It might just be my config, too.
