I’m doing a bit of testing on the new Eureka theme over the weekend. There are still a lot of known bugs that the designer is ironing out, but I’m happy with how it’s looking so far. If you spot any new ones then please leave a comment below.
Overall, I think it’s looking pretty good!

I’m glad you’re finally giving it a test run. It’s been a long time in the making. So far it looks very good.

whatever you have linking to predictad.com is causing a looooooooonnnnngggg delay on your page loading. I just timed a 20 second wait for Connected (which never loads terribly fast in North America anyway) to load while it hung on whatever your predictad link is doing.

You might think about changing your DOCTYPE to HTML 4.01 Transitional. Your new theme is closer to validating in that than it is XHTML 1.0 Transitional. I looked at the error output briefly for HTML 4.01 validation and saw a bunch of easy fixes.
Your CSS only has 11 errors. I looked at the errors and they won’t take much time to correct.

Now got it… try your page in IE6 or lesser versions. Your alignment in the bottom where you have the large image ad is not aligned propoerly. The ads go one below the other and makes the page very long. Each boxes you see in the dark portion is aligned one below the other.
I think more than 40% of your visitor should still use <IE7. I too have a lot of problems in my site with <IE7.

I am testing your pages with all browsers.
FireFox
Netscape
Opera
Safari
IE
Seems to be pretty good. Your designer has made it compatible with all browsers

Adsense overlaps H2 headlines. margin-bottom declaration is stylesheet should fix that.
Also, on content pages, unordered lists formatting is ugly.
DoFollow image overlaps website input field on comments.
Comment by Smackall on 15 December 2007:
In this page, the “U comment, I follow” image is missplaced.
I am using Firefox on Xp.
the image comes somewhere on the place where I am suppose to enter my website url when I post a comment.
