1. Full width does not do what it says as you get the grey banding to the left and right, even though you do have the ability to manually resize the window
2. The site looks terrible under safari on a mac (but that may be down to it being safari 4 and a beta). Looks slightly better under firefox on a mac, but not my preferred browser. see here for examples
3. Navigation is all over the shop. For example, the easiest way to navigate ALL the forums and see at a glance the top posts per section was to click on the main Scoobynet link under the banner (the start of the breadcrumb). But that now redirects you to the main home page instead ? So you have to go there, then click on the navigation section below that to get to the right section
4. What happened to the My Scooby data that people had taken time to create ? What level of access do you need to use the garage, because I cant
5. Inconsistent colouring across the board with the reply box (and quick reply) in a blue tint.
6. The spelling language seems to be American US by default. For example the above sentence includes colouring. Here is the spell check
7. Are we having avatars ? If so how come you cant seem to use them ?
That is the list so far

Whats with the strange navigation method, there is no way to get back to a main forum menu structure. You need to use that crazy menu system at the top of the page, what its written in I dont know but I do know the coding is blocked as potentialy malicous at work.
The variable width doesnt work properly, on a 1920x1200 monitor, with IE maximised the forum runs about 1/2 the width of the screen, and the adverts go down the right side with a massive white space in between them.
Sorry for posting in the other thread, it took me a long time to find a way to access this one because I cannot use the menu system at the top at work because of the code being blocked as mallicous.

At the top of the page - where it shows where you are in the forum (so for this thread it shows 'Scoobynet - Community - Scoobynet General' and underneath it has 'Welcome to the new ScoobyNet forum software') - when I click on 'Scoobynet' - I'd expect it to take me back to the root of the forum, but instead it takes me back to the homepage of Scoobynet, I then have to choose subaru forum (from the site navigation list of the right) to get back to the root. Could you change that so it takes it back to the forum root?

edit... i can get there, but have to go browse to scoobynet, then subaru forum, then clubs, so i can get there, but not quite as easily as before, this might confuse newer members!

Can't add a picture gallery or garage, not enough privileges.
+3 on the navigation, it's horrible.
Apart from that one or two glitches but it looks like it will be good when finished.

As per my other thread:
1) Full width, well, isn't Makes the thread listing look squashed.
2) Background colors on certain items don't match the usual style. Seems to be the Panel Surround (CSS Selector: .pannelsurround) and Panel (Forms) (CSS Selector: .panel) style items.
3) I cannot add a new Garage, I get a page stating I do not have permissions to do so.
4) I cannot add a new Photo Album, I get a page stating I do not have permissions to do so.
5) Font size and style for user names is not consistent. Regular users' names are in larger type than if you are, for example, an orange full member (and have selected your group assignment as such).
I think that's it for the moment.

1 Yep, navigation for me too.
2 Lost all my car details, wished we were warned this would happen, as i can't remember it all myself!
3 All my pics have gone, can't add garage, and I'm a plus member.
4 Avatar doesn't work for me too.
5 The unread bold post thing still a problem
6 New user cp threads disappear even when i don't read them.
7 Put it back the way it was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't stay logged on, (when I leave the site, despite telling it to remember me, it won't), and when I DO log on, it refuses to recognise me, saying I'm unregistered, until I go to, say, NSR, then it recognises me.

Premium membership link does nothing.
No info on membership at all or what each type does
Can you upgrade to the next level without paying full again?
Garage is not working (I hope any paid members can access this)
Avatars not working
Navigation tools are crap to many of them but guess will get used to that.
