... and very nice it looks too, although the "Unread Posts" change stumped me for about a minute. ;)

I agree.

One comment though, the content of .plans and user profiles is too far right. Especially with the font size used.

I agree. It makes all the text kind of huddle in the right hand side of the page. Beyond that, the new layout is pretty darn nice!

Yep, just noticed the new .plan format myself and I kinda liked it. It looked...uhm, "cozy" is a word that comes to mind, but I like it =)

There's no need for all that grey dead space in the layout. It'd be a lot easier to read if it was used for the text of the .plan file (as it used to be.)

Thanks for the feedback.

The new plans also display the developers picture if they have uploaded one... Check this one out

The mug shot on the plan is cool. Maybe I'll bribe somebody to take my picture now. I was a bit confused about the rating at first though. I thought it was for the developer, not the plan.
