Just a few observations that I think would improve the overall feel of the forums:

1. Forum Width Too Small

The old HC Forums utilized the entire width of the screen. The screen width of the forums could be stretched to the entire width of the screen below the menu without changing the header width.

2. Distracting Background

I love seeing musicians singing and playing in front of an audience, but the live band graphics make the screen too busy IMO and distract from the forum posts.

If you take care of #1 you kill two birds with one stone. Thanks... it's getting there!!! Excellent work.

Also, it would be hard to increase the avatar size because it would eat up more of the small forum width.

I bet if you increase the forum width to full screen it would eliminate a lot of complaints.

Just my two cents worth.

Completely agree. I'm not sure why this hasn't been addressed yet since these seem to be the main complaints.

The current (tiny) avatar width could be almost tripled without affecting the text-area width. Vertical hieght is moot because in any square or reasonable-rectangle setup the length of the post + sigs will be longer that the avatar is tall. At least on my desktop-driven system, that's how it looks. I have no idea (nor interest, frankly) in how it would affect iTool-system displays.
