Indeed. I quite like how the new topic layout turned out! :)

I wanted to publish the version with userbox on the right, but figured there was already enough to analyze for newcomers ;)

Oh, and I translated everything on the page but somehow managed to miss the second post's title, lol. Time for bed anyway!

As for me and the admin panel...

Mm. Wedge looks super sexy. I think it's safe to say that I'm in love with the admin panel. <3

Most of the theme work has been Nao's, the admin panel is mine, but yeah, I think it's coming together very, very nicely :)

It needs a new icons overhaul. :p

Very nice on both the forum and the admin panel. I especially like the way the admin panel is organized. Everything right in front of you without having to click through multiple menus.

You can still use the dropdown menus to get to deeper levels, though (and that's done on hover, not click, though it isn't the standard SMF menu!) so if you know precisely where you want to go, maybe it is quicker that way, but even with this front page it has certainly encouraged a wider reorganisation of items.

I gotta admit, that admin center does actually look pretty good.

The admin panel show how the sidebar can be useful (you don't actually have to visit the homepage again to view all of these details from within an admin area.)
Oh, I did the redesign for the fieldset, too. I felt I had to do it because Pete is so much in love with fieldsets and likes using them everywhere. Now with good reason :D (This is all part of the 'work in progress', as we have yet to see whether we'll use fieldsets a lot or just on the odd page.)
