Just a cosmetic thing, but there aren't enough spaces after the Active Topics link; it's missing one:

Code
<a href="/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/calendar">Calendar</a> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<a href="/forums/ubbthreads.php/activetopics/7/1">Active Topics</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

As you can see, there is a space followed by three others in all of the other links; active topics simply has the three and is neglecting the one... And sadly, i noticed it while working on a theme.

spaces should really be gotten rid of and css should handle the spacing between links.

that has been a pet peeve of mine forever.

nbsp for horizontal spacing is bleh, when css padding can be better utilized.

Yep... but add it to the list. 3 tweaks so far.

On the toolbar the active topics does not have a drop down menu anymore.

Nor does search have the quick search popup.
It takes you to the advanced search dialog only.

Also neither of them now have the little icon to the right to indicate like MyStuff does.

Is that by design?

yes, it is by design, so Googlebot sees a link to 'Active topics' directly and will index your latest posts that way.

having the hidden pull-downs defeated SEO, so the search goes to advanced and is normally hidden for guests ( bots too ).

to mitigage the quick search, just add it to a sidebar as an island.

the goal is to have all direct links on the top navbar with no blanks ( javascript popup ), like before.
