Also, the shortbread pages' related articles sidebar just shows a bunch of 'shortbread' posts, with no description of any kind.

Fixed. That was embarrassing, I was closing a span with an /a tag in the navigation area.

I assume this shouldn't be so.
EDIT: Also, I figure I'll throw this one in as well: When you do a search for nothing (I.E. just hitting the button without typing anything in), using the main nav bar's google thingie, you get a totally empty page, instead of some sort of 'hey, you forgot to put in a search term' page.

Also will there be new forum themes to match the site, and will it be one preference to adjust both?

Is there a way to prevent that from happening, or will it just have to knocked off the list over time. You may end up with 2 Etc's also if it's a slower news week.

I posted this on the new site in a comments thread, but it probably bears repeating here:
The feature box will rotate various interesting bits through. It's not written yet, but we'll apply some logic to show you the oldest thing you haven't yet seen in the rotation first, which will generally be our last big review. Then you'll get newer news stories of note after that. One way we'll keep the site fresh is working this box like mad.
This feature is working on a simple rotation basis now. Reload the front page a few times by clicking the TR logo and you'll see it in action.

I go to http://www.techreport.com and I have a clean list of the news titles and a paragraph blurb about it. This new one just makes news a list of titles, and that's lame. For example, 'Tuesday Shortbread' with a number next to it is not at all interesting (especially to a new reader). But put 'Tuesday Shortbread' with a list and descriptions like there is now, and I'm hooked. There is a world of difference. But I digress. I dislike it, but it's ya'lls website and I like the content, so I'll keep reading.

Maybe a solution would be dedicated news page, which would be more similiar to current home, for us old schoolers?
