Thanks. That's an easy fix.

Brit spellings are common in the parent theme design. That's something else that's likely an easy modification. Misalignment of the formatting buttons in both the post window and PM post window are known and I'm working on a fix.

Mac OS 10.9.5, Firefox 36.0.1, 1280 x 800. The specific [mis] alignment varies a bit with screen resolution, but generally it all looks roughly the same.

Logo link and irritating Pommy spelling of "color" fixed. Post window and BB code alignment issues still on the to do list.

OS is important. this shot is from my pc Win 8.1 Screen resolution is found on this pc from a right click on the main screen..

Just an example. Seems the Macs are having the problems lately, but what do i know.

For FF, use https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ho ... efox-cache on how to clear your cache.

Regarding post window:

If you're experiencing issues that are just too annoying to work around or that are technically preventing you from posting or viewing threads, I do have a temporary work around. In your User Control Panel I've activated the ability for members to change their board style. Under the Board Preferences tab scroll down to My Board Style and switch from Maxthon to SemiGreen. What comes up is the old board design, which has it's own problems but is functional. This is temporary and once the new design is complete this feature will be removed.

Hope this helps!
