It's so wide now that the banner saying "Hey! We just launched the VCE Discussion Group 2016 - click here to join now" literally cuts off a small bit of the letter H (on my screen)

Yes, and there are more changes coming! I should've posted in this thread come to think of it, especially since the red bar notification has changed from "expect forum updates" to "join the discussion group".

I'll keep quiet about the next update though... Super excited for it, and it may take a tiny bit getting used to but it will be *amazing* for the forum. (The new width may decrease with this change as well).

Does everyone else now have the huge articles at the bottom of the home page? I don't know if I'm a fan of it, and all the images have gone blurry with the increased size :P

It's what you would normally see on your mobile phone: I just figured it out, I'm on an 11-inch screen right now, the widescreen requirements must mean my screen is "too small" without going fullscreen... Or something ;) no dramas, my desktop is fine too, so it's just my end! ;D

This can vary between little to massive. You'd want to compare syllabuses beforehand.

So you may have noticed over the last week or so that some of our fonts swapped over to Times New Roman - This was an issue with the server and caching and other things I don't really understand ;) our awesome developer has now fixed that issue, but there are a few other niggling format things floating around as a result. Everything still functions perfectly, but you may notice some fonts resizing themselves or other little things while we iron out things with our server people ;D apologies for any brief annoyances it may cause! :)

Website Update: We have just made a BIG behind the scenes upgrade to the software that keeps our site ticking! It's not big in itself (just a newer version), but it has caused a few little bugs to come to the surface...

The big thing you might have noticed is that you are currently unable to stay logged in when browsing parts of the site besides the forums (for those who've contacted us, this is what is causing your issues downloading notes). To explain why this happens in simple terms, basically, the forum part of our site "talks" to the other parts of the site with a bridge. Our upgrade burnt the bridge, so when you try to go to the Notes section right now, you actually just end up lost in the river ;)

Sooo, our developer is currently rebuilding that bridge for us, and fixing any other niggling issues that arise. This upgrade should help the small group of people who were experiencing random errors when accessing resources in our Notes section; you shouldn't have that issue anymore. You probably won't notice any other obvious differences; it is very much an "under the hood" upgrade. Everything should just, in general, work a little better ;D

Please comment below if you notice any other issues in the coming days - And I will let you know when the bridge has been built and you are all set to go for Notes once again (it shouldn't be long) ;D
