As you may have noticed by now we now have a completely new layout for our community.
This layout should be more userfriendly and the chat is also easier to access.
I will be posting a complete list of what I have done as well as fixing some stuff I have overseen tomorrow, but for now. Enjoy.
edit:
Clan roster is temporarily disabled for now. Will enable it again tomorrow as there will be some rendering updates.

Here's a list of updates made to make the new layout work.

Will fix it once i get home from work today. Problem is that all browsers render the code differently. For example, in Chrome and IE I don't get that issue.

Thanks for the feedback so far ^_^
I have now changed the code so Mozilla Firefox doesn't show the bug reported in the picture by Empty a few posts up.
