We've added a couple of new features with the new look site.

What do you think of them?

The storing and graphing of past results to start with

I love the new look. Perhaps you could change the word "Discuss" for "Forums" instead. Just a suggestion.

Where? On the main pages?

I think "Discuss" works well. Maybe move it up the list a bit on the home page. The list of links down the left side of the page.

Yes it's "discuss" on the main page. It seems to me it could be a little confusing to new comers. "Forums" is more descriptive. I dunno. Just my opinion. It's a minor point.

Cookie - The reason why I originally chose "discuss" was because I thought it was more descriptive than "forums". It's also more of a "call to action"

What do others think?

i can appreciate that. Then perhaps might i suggest making the "forum" on the left hand side of the home page link to the main page of the forums?

I have noticed the following: When I try the new speed test on Firefox, I have to scroll down each time to read the results box on the lower right and if I backpage it brings me to the "view results" page and when I go forwardpage, the test is back on top and I have to scroll down again to read the results.

When I use IE, the backpage brings me to the login page and when forwardpaging back to the position where I can test and read the results without scrolling.

Am I being picky or lazy? Also if I want to save the results do I have to copy and paste or am I missing something on the page?

Hi

Does anybody know how to activate the saved test results?

I check my speeds at least 3 times in each session and I have to take a manual screenshsot to save the results. neither the graph or physical results show up

I am using Mac 10.4.5

Anybody else got the same problem

Click on the "view results" link.

I was refering to the "view results" link when I mentioned c & p. Any chance of a new window opening up with the results and graph? It would make a nice record to sent to IBB daily from those of us who feel we are being conned!
