What's New?

TMX still has the same, familiar layout it always did. There are a few notable exceptions:

# New menu bar
# GIF icons have been replaced by a vector-based font called Font Awesome
# Darker background
# Font size increased to 13px Arial
# Overall site width increased
# Page loading time has been decreased due to web optimized images
# Forum posts made by the TMX crew will now include the logo under their name
# Also, forum posts made by Nadeo employees will include a Nadeo logo under their name

Why a new menu bar?

There are a few reasons for this. First and foremost, the goal was to decrease page loading time as much as possible. The old menu had 35 GIF images. Image loading is considered by many to be a bottleneck when it comes to page speed. The other reason is expansion. With the old menu, it wasn't possible to add any new menu items without creating two images. One image was normal, and the other image contained a red line when you pointed at it. With the new menu, it is possible to add menu items extremely quickly.

Why a larger font and wider site?

With the advances in computer display technology, including high resolution and Full HD monitors, the existing sites have become hard to read without zooming in the page or using a custom stylesheet. The larger font increases readability without being overly huge.

What's in the future?

TMX 2.1 will include page backgrounds. There will be an option to turn off page backgrounds as well. There are also plans to change the track pages to include a section that details if an add-on modification, such as TMUnlimiter, is required.

Unfortunately, TMX will not be able to support TM2: Stadium maps, as we lack the functionality to deal with the format.

They are visible for me. Make sure you do a total refresh on your browser (typically Shift + Refresh or Ctrl + Refresh).

i also noticed something wrong with the text on the account section where it shows the awards received and given
the text looks kinda messed

Whoops! I'll be fixing that tonight!

Before anyone posts anything, I'm aware the post history on replies is messed up. I'm currently trying to find a fix.

looks good so far, best thing is the fast loading time!
BUT there's 1 thing that should be changed imo... in "my records" i can't really tell apart between my WR replays and non-WR replays because the width-difference of the text is way too low.

I was just about to say that

Update the threadhistory control.

Fixed. It was CSS causing the issue.
