Deleted the Quick Reply option. 3.5 years of not having it -- well, I am used to not seeing it, and feel most people won't use it and most people won't like an extra button on every post.
So, deleted.
I'm still waiting for a couple of fixes here and there to finish the style changes and re-enable the API. Waiting on developers....

There is currently a problem with Private Message email notifications as a result to the changes I made to the PM system. They are sending some extra HTML/CSS formatting info that they shouldn't be. I'm working on the problem.
Mike
I believe this has now been fixed, please let me know if not (as of this post).

Also I added a timeline to private messages (new PM's as of today only), so it will show in the quote block the timestamp of the PM.

I like the style of the new buttons. Let's fit it to the other buttons:
Current:
New style ("Top of Page" Button and "Page 52 of 52"):
Other buttons of nexusfi.com (formerly BMT ) would look like the "Top of Page" button. For example "Submit Reply", "Preview Post" etc.
I think this would be a nice fix in the design.
Here the CSS code for that: (Tested in Firefox, don't know how IE accept that...)
Quoting
.button {
background: #245AAB;
border: none;
color: #FFFFFF;
font: bold 11px verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
padding: 3px;
}
In .vbmenu_control you need only change the background to #245AAB. Everything else remains.

I also like the shape of the new buttons, but the color does not match the forum colors.
The blue of the new buttons lacks brilliance as opposed to the forum blue which is fresh and produces a better contrast with the white letters.

Thanks Fat Tails. I haven't created the new buttons. I just thougt it would be a nice fix in the design.
Look at the "Post Reply" button, it's also a new button and it dosen't match to the current style of "Page xx of xx" or "Top of Page".
Whatever, solution would be to create new buttons with this gradient effect you like or to match "Top of Page" and the other things to the new button style.
I prefer the new button style, it is modern

As suggested by , we've completed some changes (not exactly the ones he mentioned, but similar).
Examples:
Please report any problems.

The images in your screenshot look blurry. Did you zoom in? What browser are you using? Everything is crisp and sharp for me in IE, Firefox and Chrome.

I love the new "New" button on subscribed/new posts, much bigger and easier to click especially on a smartphone.
