I've worked up a user style sheet for the forums, more to my tastes. I'm sharing it here in the hopes that others who enjoyed the old forums will find it more to their liking. This is certainly not a finished effort, but already I find it to be a significant improvement.

To Install:

Install the Stylish Extension

Firefox: https://addons.mozil...fox/addon/2108/
Chrome: https://chrome.googl...jfgmeleoegfcffe

Once installed, go to http://userstyles.org/styles/38942 and click the "Install with Stylish" button.

Known Issues:

There's a blank line between posts in topic listing. I hope to have a fix for this.

Thanks, installed it in both chrome and firefox.

New version released...got rid of the blank line on topic pages. Much better now! Please delete the style from Stylish, then go back to the userstyles.org link in the first post and reinstall to get the new version.

The issue is that the add-on hasn't been updated to run on the newer version of FF -- at least that is how I understand it -- so you'll be able to run it with 3.6, but not som eof the newer 4s.
