Have you changed the theme from XenBase back to Default Style at the bottom of the page? It shouldn't be any different to before.
I have, but I didn't do anthing in the first place to have my UI change on me...
I had to read advice in a separate posting (in the large-dishes-on-ebay-etc) before I managed to recover the "recent posts" item.
Why are there even different styles to choose from?

(Right, let's put the accelerator to the right of the brake pedal. No wait, maybe somebody wants to have it on the left, in case they're left-handed. Nono, what if they're ambidextrouos? Hmm. What-to-do. Ah, I got it! Let's make it use-configurable where the accelerator, clutch and brake pedals are in their specific car! The use can program this by pressing a button on the dash-board, and pressing the pedals in the right sequence upon start-up of the vehicle. Brilliant; problem solved, responsiblity for sensible operation delegated to end-user. (sounds of abundant hand-washing and back-slapping.))

Yes and I had my first blue screen of death last night, was just watching a youtube video, only other prog running was skype, logged in, next news, I got a message telling me memory was running low, (8Mb installed) then BSOD reprting APC_Index_Mismatch. Windows 8.1 is confirmed as a pile of poo
If you manage to run W8 in 8MB of RAM, I think Redmond wants to hear from your ASAP. You're gonna make the programming stars...

Might be a browser related problem!

I use "" pale moon "" which was affected but resolved when I chose the default option.

Have other different browser ( explorer, opera etc ) users noticed the change?

Then I suspect this is Browser independent and more likely to depend upon whether one was logged in or out at the time.

Senile dimentia dictates one is living in the past, I knew it was 8Gb but my finger typed 8Mb

I think so too, as I saw the change happen and just assumed it was an upgrade at first.

That brings up one of those Mod privileges. We can go back as far as we like and edit history so that we look like we're perfect.

Which we are, of course, just sometimes rushed in our spelling...
