Doing the CTRL and mouse wheel will affect all web sites. Not something you want to be doing. Have you not read the posts about the forum change?

Does this mean that those of us with no access to broadband are to be no longer catered for?What's dial-up []
Yeah, it will be slowish on dial-up, doubt you'll find many sites that aren't
Before yesterdays update the forum was reasonably fast, now I spend most of my time watching "Loading %" while the heading picture slowly loads. I visit several forum sites daily and none are as slow as this is now.

i am not to keen on the graphics at the top of the page either, as i'm
on a dialup. it takes about 10-15secs before the page displays enough
for me to scroll - and thats on firefox.
on ie6, it takes about 30sec for an entire page to download..

i do have broad band is 1meg and pages are faster to be honest , but its the loosing 2 inches ever side of screen is this a permant thing now , before i could view more things on the screen but have to do more scrooling now , waas just wondering , not complaining just prefer a full screen
It's going to be customisable, theres a whole 2 page thread on it in the active topics list at the moment, so you will have moe control over how you view it, in effect, you will be able to have the screen wider, but for users running 800x600, if it was any wider than it is now, they would have to scroll from left to right on every single page!
You'll find a lot of sites are actually this size.

Much prefer it like it was. This is very messy to read and doesn't make best use of the screen. And, yes - it is taking longer to load pages. This does not seem like progress to me. Personally, I still miss the old set up, which ran the topics much better. Active Topics is now not a list of the threads which have changed since you last logged on, but simply all threads from the most recently answered down. Not the same, and not so easy to track topics. We seem to have lost such a lot, just to gain speed of loading.
Before you start, I am not criticising you and the other guys David, I know you do a lot of work to keep things going, but the "old" software did have a lot of great features which made using it far simpler than now. Oh, and I hate those chav smilies, they're crap.

GaryM, can you tell me how you blocked it?, I'm using Firefox 1.0.3 and
have tried blocking images from the options menu with no success, its
blocked all the images apart from the offending picture at the top.
I
can't find an Adblocker option, have I missed something?
