    I solved my own problem by disabling the Firefox RHP addon I had downloaded forever ago that shows a user's rating etc.. So never mind.
    Yes, any Grease Monkey scripts will not play nice unless updated by the original author.

    Until this is fixed, please use the drag and drop method.
    it looks like when you get a promoted pawn, it gives you no choice what piece you want, it gave me a queen when i would have taken a knight also there seems to be no link in clan challanges, its good to click on to see how the rest of the team is doing, could do that the old way. also no time showing so you dont know if you have minutes or weeks left you have to open the game first to have a look. a bit disappointed you did not listen to the old if its not broken then dont try to fix it... last moan we had no 2013 championship so you could waste your time on this

    Looks good to me, like the drag and drop and the bigger board.

    I don't understand all the complaining.

    No need to be lost, everything is very nearly where it was before.

    I also don't like the changes, though I hate to be negative about anyone's efforts. As someone who has played here every day for years, I didn't see anything broken about the interface I knew and liked. It sure would be nice if we had the option of the old interface too.

    I do not like this new look for the site.. Please bring back the old look. It was much simpler and easier to use and looked fine!!

    I have a similar issue, only on the mygames page, top right:
    gezza (a href)

    I have disabled all GreaseMonkey scripts and also turned GreaseMonkey off,
    and reloaded and everything else I can think of 😉
    Potentially because I have neither a title nor location set?

    This is hideous; you need to enable an option for the old look. Alternatively place an "Unsubscribe" button on the home page to give people a quick-click method for escaping this awful, awful, awful UI.

    Was the color palette for the 'My Move' and 'Waiting' background colors based on Martha Stewart's "Vomit & Bile Collection"?

    I would like to say thanks to Russ for all his hardwork on the update, but i am sorry to say that i dont really like it, and would prefer our old site back ASAP.

    I agree that these three things need to be fixed back to the way it was before, plus analyze board. Other than that, the rest seems fine to me. So far.

    For you perhaps....tell you what, let's juggle all the instruments on your car's dashboard, move around the gear positions, and face your seat backwards, not to mention inverting the contrasts.

    Makes driving so much better, don't it?
