    I rolled out some new headers. If you don't see a background behind the logo and banner (OR TOP NAV LINKS ARE MISSING OR HEADER IS STACKED) then do a shift key & refresh to load them up. I nailed a temporary logo up there until I can do a new one. Although that temp one is growing on me a bit... :) I would like to thank those of you that have given feedback on what's going on here. I have done a lot in the last week based on what you told me. In this case with the headers it was cira50 and DavidTurner that should get some karma for speaking up as we retrieved a lot of vertical space and made the place more seamless overall.

    I will tackle the right nav in the same fashion and I am starting to enjoy this phase of the new 3reef as you all have made it for the better. Since it was a holiday and many of you were out, I have added "new posts," "today's" and "my posts" in the right nav along with a link to the "old search" if you prefer it while I hammer on the new one. I have also redone the recent threads on the homepage.

    Now with the new header in place I think we are starting to run with the ball a bit, I hope you agree. There was an IE6 issue (thanks grubbsj and bluewhite4) and I hope these new headers solve that for now. Sorry to the IE6 people that got banged by the FLASH. Thanks to all of you that are hanging out during this. I will get on the right nav soon. Cheers..

    Reminder - shift key + refresh to get top nav links if missing.(or if header is stacked)

    I liked the first "New" header. Now it just looks like a big add.
