Many don't realize this, but the site will revert back tomorrow. It's just an April Fool's day joke. You don't really think they would change an entire site overnight and break just about every single part of it would you?

I still can not play on this site with my  tablet but it works on all the other chess sites.  Can you get that fixed?

Why are the team matches of a group not visible to non-members who visit that group's home page, and why is the list on Team Matches at http://www.chess.com/groups/team_matches.html not sortable? Information about the matches of other groups would be very useful to SA's and Admins looking for potential match opponents.

All new changes made are really very good except no. of forums on the homepage are less than previous.

One good thing about changes is that ratings are not so prominent.  examples:- ratings are usually in pale blue, making them less obvious...With your current games your opponents ratings are missing...when you go to "members" there is no longer any graphs or lists of players in rating order.  All of which is good, as while ratings are somewhat important, I didn't like them being in my face all the time. Laughing

Yes. Do use the group menu.

I am using chrome. Font size 14pt.

This is orange . . . This Italic orange . . .

This blue . . . This is Italic blue . . .

This is red . . . This is Italic red . . . 

Chrome 18.0.1025.142 m

This is bold orange... This is bold/italic orange

This is bold blue... This is bold/italic blue

This is bold red... This is bold/italic red

Now I will post it and see what happens.

RESULTS. . In my posted the italic red changed to blue.

In my comment box this is Italic Red.

So there is a problem here. I posted a piece and I thought I had made a mistake but the changes were being made by the new code.

I will forward this to Erik.

I do agree with the comment that it has become harder (not impossible, but more clicks and more searching) to find essential information about your opponent's games and statistics, while useless stuff like their birthday is prominently available...  

Again, more like Facebook and less like what chess is (supposed to be) about: my major pet-peeve with the recent changes.

Gnerally, I like the new design.  The only gripe I have at the moment is that the "offer draw" and "resign" buttons should be moved further away from the "analyze" and "settings" buttons because I sometimes accidentally click on them when I want to analze a game.  Perhaps just drop them down an inch or move them some place else so people don't accidentally start drawing and resigning.  Embarassed
