On these forum pages, there is the top logo, then the quote and menu items, then like a whole page of blank space till the forum page loads. This is on 1280x1024 resolution even.

If it's been discussed before I'm sorry for OFN'ing it. Just that for a few days I came here and thought the forums were borked cause nothing showed up, then I saw the scroll bar and well you can figure it out from there.

Kill that space it's lame!

It's a bug and I have no clue why its happening, it doesent happen to everyone.

What browser are you using?

IE 5 i think, on my work PC and I have the header logo then a space. Then the quote with the clickable links for user cp, members etc. Then another space and then the link through for the boards. And the buttons are showing up as Temp buttons. The buttons for the new posts and stuff.

Define space.

HUGE space, or just space.

If I put IE full screen, I can see the picture at the top, about 4 inches of blank space below that, then the User CP | Calendar | Members | FAQ | Search Forums | Forum Home links, then more blank space (have to scroll down) about 4 inches worth, then the forums. Pretty huge.

I'm using IE5 at work, this is an old Win95 machine with no option to upgrade to IE6. Sucks but not sure if I have the same prob at home on XP. WIll check though.

Here are a few screens of the space. It's like HUGE. This is 1280/1024 res.

That is exactly how mine looks. Also I can't update this machine. I work in an office on Windows NT. I haven't checked at home. I usually read the forumns at work and play when I'm at home. I spend way to much time at my job. I do love the $25 an hour for sitting on my ass and talking on the phone once in a while.

Big scroll?

Sorry, edited that part out but you'd already read it (you are on the ball). The scroll was just for this thread and it's because of the pictures on it, my bad.
