Awesome work! :D
Wow! Way to go fellas! :cool:
So... Is everyone happy with the colors, font choices and things like that.......? :^^;:
This looks an awful lot like the copy on my local server.
How strange :P
Bit obsessed with the topic layout (especially after some traumatizing comments :lol:), so here's the alternative version (not committed yet though.)

Which do you prefer?

I like that, possibly more than the one currently in SVN. The one thing I'm not sure about is the fact the userbox items are all right aligned when I'm so used to seeing them left aligned - but again I think it's simply a case of being *so* used to left aligned that right aligned is just change I'm not used to (and hence all the psych consequences of resistance to change)

The reason I right-aligned them is because if they remain left-aligned, suddenly it feels more 'crowded' in the vicinity of the post itself. When you reach the end of the line in a post, you find yourself in close contact with the beginning of the text in the user box.
A solution would be to increase padding between elements, but that could end up reducing the message width too drastically. Of course, a workaround for that would be to decrease the font size, but then the effect would be lost.
I'm just not sure about the best solution to apply here.
(And I'm glad we're now going to be able to ask users for feedback :P)

Nah, more complex than that!
Why not making them configurable? :)
They are... through CSS. Last thing we need is to make the admin panel any bigger than it currently is - there is a certain value in keeping things simple, and having everything be configurable does not only make it less simple, it also impacts how easy it is to make custom themes.
Ah, Pete, I *will* be forced to add a few settings for that anyway... I'm thinking the ability to show the sidebar on the left or right... Would be a minimum. Then the user boxes would be shown opposite the sidebar. Hence my extra code to enable both directions.
Yes, that's fair enough - just we need to be a little bit careful about not having too much *stuff* in the ACP. I mean, for example, I need to overhaul post moderation entirely - the same basic settings have three different interfaces to them right now, and that sort of thing has to go.
Its cool ... very nice \o/
