I see it as well in Firefox. The offset seems random and does not depend on the zoom level. It seems to happen while zooming in or out, then it resets. I am guessing it has something to do with how fast the rendering engine works.
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Dear CP,
At the bottom of every article there is a link Article Top tat should bring you at the top of the page. Since the new version got in, it is not working (tried on Chrome, latest version).
Cheers

Is the Metro UI against separators in menus?
|
|
|
|
|
... ask a few of us oldies to beta test the new UI ? (Or maybe I just reckoned I am not member of the club).
I am feeling microsofted.
Feedback (if any required): Overall very good, for the rest, same as everyone (separate threads more clearly (with a light orange shade?), grey on white is not senior-friendly, too much space kills the space, too much white kills the white.)
Thanks for keeping Bob and bit of orange

Because the oldies are stuck in their old ways?

Sure, but there is always some good advice to be taken from them.

Hey, I'm (reasonably) happy with the new layout, and using it as I type. It's even better when I set text size to 90% in Chrome. Pah, you kids know nothing. 
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Seems like some oldies didn't like that comment. 
And no, I don't think it was you, you would have told me so.
I have to admit that I'm not generally negative to the new layout, even if it might seem so from my posts.
I'm only negative to specifics. And it seems to me that most people have similar opinions about which shortcomings there are.
And they will be ironed out soon enough I believe.
I'm also using 90% size by the way.

Of course not, your comment was perfectly reasonable. I did try and counter it, but it looks like some heavy hitter (older and more miserable than me) got upset.

Must be more than 1. My 5 didn't counteract much either.

Yup. And when you find a site called The Fake Project, it will be my design; and I announced the design here[^].

Damn that is another forum I have to keep an eye on to see up and coming article now

That was a good article. Did read it when Pete did do a shameless plug on it earlier this week or last!
Just didn't realise he puts his article ideas there first.

Nice freakin' change Chris! Kudos to you and the CP team! 
Any reason the main menu (e.g., home) is not Title case? I prefer Title case. Let my will be done. Pretty please!

Chris had an allergic reaction to VS2012. This was the result.

That would explain it. Two wrongs don't make a right though.
In your sig, the b in "My blog" needs to be capitalized. Just saying!

Firstly, I think it did need an update. The old orange and fixed Arial text looked a bit 90s.
However I do have a few complaints:
- The forum bar on the left no longer shows all forums,
and nor does it have highlighting for forums with new posts. This is how I have always navigated around the forums I'm interested in and I think that is a big mistake. There is plenty of vertical space to still have a full list there and to bring back highlighting of the current forum and forums with new posts. Edit: actually, it does have highlighting. But I can't see it for all forums without expanding every section manually. - It is an unstructured sea of white. It will hurt my eyes after not very long, and it's hard to see the structure of the page. I think the navbars (left and top) should have some shading, a pastel orange perhaps.
- In articles, H3 headings are more prominent than H2 ones. Make H2s a darker orange, or bold.

1. I wanted to be consistent with the sidebar nav in the article section tables of contents, plus, for those viewing 10 or 25 messages per page the nav bar was longer than the messages. It's a subjective call, but I still prefer the minimal view
2. I've already been threatened with physical violence if I bring in any more pastel
3. I tweaked these earlier. Should be good now (though may Ctrl+F5 to force a CSS reload)

In the old forum, the submenus were expanded, and showed unread messages by highlighting the forum in bold. Now, I have to click on them to expand (ie, before switching from the C# to the Database-forum)
That's an extra click, compared to the old version; one that does not add or improve anything to the experience. I'd like to see the complete list expanded, and, now that I'm requesting features anyway; a count (right-aligned) that shows how many unread messages are in that forum would be kind of nice too

With the new UI, my article[^] layout has taken a hit. The article header is pushed below the article (above the author profile). In FF, the first heading (Introduction) appears center justified (okay in IE).

I believe I have rescued it.
