Windows8 tab was added

I've reverted back to my original skin. I missed the breadcrumb links at the foot of the page, and there just seemed to be too much lag with that skin. :(

Will do. :)

Seems better, although I have just switched back over. Will need to use it for a while, probably over the weekend to get any useful feedback. The addition of the breadcrumbs does help, especially as I have my options set to the maximum # of posts/page.

I'll go and have a look at it, at present I use the SF Blue Wide, like Dwarf I have a wide screen monitor so prefer to use a wide skin. I used to like the purple skin that was over at Eight but that's disappeared for now :(

Thank you John, at present I quite like this pastel, and I've not noticed any lag yet but I've only just started using it I'll see how it pans out over the weekend but I may stick with it.
I also like having the, what you call breadcrumbs, at the bottom especially when I've gone to the bottom of the thread and can just click on the sub forum name rather than having to scroll all the way up to the top to get out.;)

It appears that SF Blue is leading by 6% :busted:

EDIT:
The race is heating up!

SF Blue is now tied with SF Default CDN for first place.

SF Default, SF Black, SF Aero and Seven Blue/Seven Blue CDN all tied for second place.

SF Pastel, Pitch black and Tablet beta failing to get a vote yet.

I quite like the appearance of the ---- SF Pastel Wide skin, but it still seems to suffer from lag. Also, in profile pages, the time zone panel is missing. The Tutorials link is also missing (can only access from main index page).
