Firstly I just want to say thanks for the effort that so many people put into this site to keep it up and running
However since the upgrade I've been having a few problems with keeping myself logged into the site. My browser of choice is Opera 9.20 and if I were to create a new tab and go to another part of the site I'd have to log in again which is something that's not happend before. Even if I have only one tab viewing s2ki I have to re-log in every 5 minutes or so. This has never happened before either. Now maybe there's a problem with my browser, which I think is unlikely as I only rebuilt my PC last weekend and I've had no problems on any other forums I use, but it does seem like a coincidence that these problems have started just after a site upgrade.
As for the design I personnally pefer the old title bar myself.
Sorry for the generally negative post, but I thought it might be worth a mention

The problem is with your browser. Clear your cache and your cookies.
Opera is not a supported browser and I don't test or develop with it so I can't comment specifically about what might be wrong except to say that the core of the site code has not changed with respect to sessions or logins. Opera represents < 1% of the page views so I can't dedicate any time to it. I will support any browser comprising > 1% of the total page views.
The site is tested with Internet Explorer 7, FireFox 2.0 and Safari 3.1 before it's pushed out to the production site. Your milage may vary when using any other browser however I try to follow standards wherever possible so most if not all of the site should be functional but there are no guarantees.

cthree - Many thanks for your swift reply. I've cleared my cache and cookies and that does seem to have helped. I appreciate that you can not realistically test all possible browsers when making upgrades to the site
