Looks better.

Hiya Hawkee

Gonna go against my normal self here and just plug a few suggestions that need doing with the changes..
Initially, yeap.. nice clean minimalistic, nice..
closer look..

not so keen on the right top side of the bar. the profile icons look wrong on the nav bar.. as they have that "white" background.. i would opaque or transparent the profile icons there..

the grey on dark grey of the nav bar.. i would have them a slightly different colour seperation but thats aesthetic purposes only

In Explore... for the time being.. shove the forum link as scrolling forever to get the bottom of the page is just tedious

other than that.. thats about it for the moment. nice job so far :)

@Cheiron Thank you for the suggestions. Yes you have a good point about fixing those icons. I'll have to adjust those. As for the forum link, I'd like to suppress that. I don't want to draw attention to it because the activity stream is the focus of the site. We're phasing out the forum simply due to the antiquated format. You might just want to bookmark it to avoid scrolling.

point noted on the forum and fair enough reply :) just being lazy i guess.
i have had a good old nose at the changes so far with JS open and not noted anything awry besides a massive load time on one of the jq nodes.

With the emphasis near completely removed from everyday sight, I wouldn't bother posting there anymore. :/ Code boxes look great by the way.

Looks AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! One thing though, before I logged in, I noticed the "Login" and "Join Hawkee" button's were a bit out of line, if you know what I mean, maybe lower them a bit... (I'm being picky) xD

EDIT: Nevermind. Lol

@Stewie1k94 That was one of the first things I fixed. Logout and let me know if you still see the issue.

The explore drop down seems okay to me.

nought wrong with login here. tested with chromium , google chrome, firefox, opera and midori on ubuntu 11.10 and mint 12 lxde :)

I'm using Firefox with the FXChrome Theme, maybe that's the problem. it just looks a lil' bit higher than the search bar.

Seems very subtle. I'll see if I can tweak it.

Okay, so I opened up Chrome, and checked. And it's fine on there. So I guess it's this Theme I'm using on Firefox. :/

EDIT: I changed back to normal theme and same problem, but fine on Chrome. If it can't be fixed then it's okay, just would be nice, lol

@Stewie1k94 I opened it up in Firefox and see what you mean. I'll work on that.

Finally replicated the problem I was having earlier. I loaded a new page whilst the "Explore" drop down menu was active, and it stayed active until I refreshed the page again.

Bleh, it happens on and off I guess. Just a heads up.

This design is extremely clever and neat, good job!
