Regarding table being smaller:

1) Is it just original or arcade that's a problem?

2) What is your screen resolution?

3) Do you have a status bar at the bottom of your page?

Answering each of these will allow me to see / test the impact.

1) both original and arcade smaller-arcade easier now i think. But original tiny now and was hard enough to play before let alone now-i love original and is putting me off so dont think many people will be encouraged to play it now! (my opinion)

2)screen resolution is 1024, 768

3)what do u mean by status bar? lol

Arcade is too small for me nick, really hard to get used to.

As for original, i think its better the way it is.

Edit: Any chance of increasing the friends list nick?

Status bar = bar where it shows you how much the page has loaded? Also, the address bar at the top will cut down on table size..

Surely the main point of the game is the snooker tables, I can't see the logic behind making them smaller, the layouts fine, just the table needs making bck o its full size.

Sorry, i'm not such a fan

I like the quick game feature and the auto-play feature but a bit dissapointed in some other things.

The killer rankings for example. What i liked about killer was that it was unique compared to the other games in nearly every way. I think the new ranking system for it just makes it seem bland and too close to the other games which puts me off a bit. And i suppose those points we gained before would be converted eventually? So that those at the top will remain there?

Also my game tables seem smaller too. It's not changed too much but it makes a difference when you are used to working on the previous angles and shots.

On the game window there should only be 1 bar, the title bar at the top. Sometimes your browser may add the bar at the bottom of the window.

It should look like:

The angles shouldn't have changed. Have you tried maximizing / increasing the size of the window?

even if there was the option to change layout... as some prefer the new layout and some prefer the old... a option to change between the two will keep both parts happy.

agreed, however

It will be easier for new members, so they would automatically have to have the layout set to the new one, so i dont know if that would be a problem for Nick making sure that people who come on for the first time have the new one and others have the old one.

I haven't spoke to anybody in my friends list yet that like the new layout
