What is that overlay diagonal thingy on the users name? It makes it hard to read. Can't the webmaster have it next to the name?

It's an upside down triangle in an opaque colour.

Can you post a screenshot and tell us what browser you are running (including version)? The triangle should be under the username, as shown here:

Hey, you moved it!
It's now seated under (and attached) to the header (under the *), much better now, thank you.

It doesn't seem to have any purpose as before it had a mouse over option (I think?).

Sorry, can't take any screen shots currently, I'm in transition of moving to other premises.

Dang, now it's back covering the name again..DOH!

I can't move it, I just want to get some more information about it for those that can. There's no hurry, so when you have the time take a screenshot of the issue and post it here.

I just downloaded Irfanview Image viewer program so I can get a decent picture of what I'm saying, I just have to figure out how to add it here... wait for my edit so I can use the image upoloader in the Full Edit option.

edit -
I'll have to go get a Tiny url account to give a link for the images.

Wait for my next reply..coming soon!

That's unusual. What browser are you running (including version)?

For some odd reason, I can no longer use the full edit options as I could a few days ago. Also, TH is very slow in responding on page open, have to wait about 10 seconds before it responds, this has only happened in the past day or so.

The slow down doesn't occur on any other site, I'll leave that Question for a new thread.

Oh yeah, the change in the triangle only happens after posting a reply.

Thanks for the heads-up on this! I've added this as a bug for the developers to look into. In the interim, clear your cache, and consider updating to the latest version of your browser.

It's not important, I don't want to upgrade.

No worries - we'll try to resolve the issue without necessitating an upgrade. I've put this in as a bug request for investigation. Hopefully we can root out the cause.
