Gif support has to be added, will add it to the missing list!

I really like that I can use the mouse wheel to scroll through pics in the forums.

(instead of clicking on an arrow to move to the next pic)

(when they're uploaded instead of linked I guess?)

Yeah same on PC. If I hover over "Home" I get a drop down of the forum categories. Looks like the beta link takes you to a list of topics ordered by last updated.

Also, text is unreadable in dark mode. I know you said you didn't like dark mode Diz, but it's much easier on my eyes than the default bright white.

This dropping down to the end of the page to view attachments sucks. By moving you away from the posted msg, it makes voting damn difficult. The scroll feature is unreliable as half the time images are showing up behind the previous image and thus not in view. Question: Why does it require depressing the arrow button to shift to the next pic and then scrolling down to it via the mouse wheel? Shouldn't it be one or the other like most other sites and software? Also, how do you differentiate between a person's avatar and post? The images are the same size and basically in-column.

Exactly how it is,  the new forums home is all categories ordered by last updated. 

The dark mode is not available yet for the new forums beta as I am still tweaking some things. Will be online later on with some other tweaks, added features and fixes.

Hey Diz, might want to hide this

liking the new feel of the forums, not much of a participant there but do view them and vote but the new feel, looks great so far

I couldn't leave messages in the hot or not. that should change.

Ehm, you might want to disable the dev-tool up in the right corner for security reasons.

I get some error on profiles. It's random and I can't make out any specific steps to reproduce.

Fixed. Debuging was on. Nothing to worry about that, reveals what is yours.

Fixed. Some caching didn't write away as it suppose to.

Still a long way to go, but I want to include people more and more in development of new parts of the site. Instead of removing something directly.
