Except on all the three Amiga browsers, (IBrowse, AWeb and Voyager),
which don't, umm, have CSS yet. (: (Unless the latest versions of
AWeb and Voyager do. Not sure...)
Otherwise Ryan, the site seemed to work well on the above three. I
tested searching and posting and both behaved as I'd expect them to.
Posts didn't seem to be sticking though, in that while the one I made
appeared amongst the messages as expected, it wasn't there when I
looked at the site with another browser, plus someone else's
dissapeared between browsers as well. Is this meant to be happening
while you're just testing it? (Alternative posibility - I hadn't
entered my email address, but should have?)
