Dear CP,
new layout and graphics looks very nice. Still I was wondering if you can consider making it a bit "less bright". On our big dev monitors CP shines out and after 10 minutes it is not anymore pleasant reading. Also you should give more "weight" to article titles in the main page.
Hope that my suggestion was helpful.
Cheers

The new look and feel of codeproject.com is simply awesome.. The font selection, the design and everything is simply great.. 5+ for the idea and the designer.

With this new design(Which i loved a lot), I could not find the "share on social networks" option.
I have a habbit of pushing articles' link on twitter and with this new design I couldn't find the easy way to do so(like there was in previous design).
P.S. There is a "More" button next to print but it doesn't do anything right now.
Every now and then say, "What the Elephant." "What the Elephant" gives you freedom. Freedom brings opportunity. Opportunity makes your future.

The share links are now at the bottom of the article, same place as the voting bar.

I just saw these links and they are exactly what people need. And frankly these look so much better than the earlier version.
With each passing day the new design looks more and more awesome(perhaps because it is being improved constantly).
Thanks and Regards,

Some heading colours are grey (> level 2) instead of the orange or green which makes reading articles difficult.

Concerning the previous post http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4368016/Article-vote-counter.aspx[^]
Now I noticed the same behaviour. The article has had 9 votes for a longer period of time and it got upvoted within an hour. However, the voting count still shows 9.
Don't know if this has anything to do with this, but every now and then when I search for articles and browse them, the link opens a previous version of the article. In the top there's a note that it is an older version to currently released article. I've never paid much attention to it but could it be that if the vote goes to previous version, it's not counted in the same way? Just a wild guess

As I mentioned in the previous post, articles and their ratings get cached. You may have been seeing an old cached version.

If someone has a new version of an article pending then the older (currently available) article will show this message and a link to the new version. You have enough rep to see both available and non-public pending articles

Thanks for the answer.
I waited for awhile to exclude the effect from caching
When I wrote this thread on 20 Sep '12 the number of votes was 9 and currently the number of votes is still the same so it looks like the vote isn't counted for some reason.

Had a quick scan and couldn't find this, but if it's a repost feel free to squish it.
The voting starts are weird. When I open a question, outline stars 2 - 5 are visible. If I mouse over as if to vote, filled stars 1 - n show.
On answers, outline star 1 is there, but the green background around the votes on accepted answers comes and goes unexpectedly.

Is this still happening? Can you try a Ctrl+F5 to get an uncached reload? Some of the graphics have changed

Taking this one[^] as an example:
FF 15.0.1 w/dev tools, fresh load, cache cleared.
Question shows outline star 5, hover shows bargraph and potential vote filled stars.
Accepted solutions show no stars on a white background within green bar, hover as for question but also fills in green background.
Chrome 21.0.1180.89 m, fresh load, cached cleared.
As the page loads, the question voting area shows some ?radio buttons? momentarily, then the "missing image" icon. When I mouse over it (to go to inspect source) it goes to the same mouseover behaviour as FF.
Answers likewise, with background greening like FF.
[update: did ctrl-F5 in FF and it has the same transient behaviour. Too quick for my eyes to say exactly what happens.]
[slightly OT]
Ironic that one of our more recently "active" members has updated an ancient question, uppercasing two instances of the first person pronoun and not correcting 'there' to 'their' for 3rd person posessive.

A lot better, but not quite.
All good except for white background around stars in accepted answer. Turns green (good) on hover.

ps LHS menu in forums is much better.

The CP points just appear to big. Maybe the font size can be reduce a tad.

Which points?

The total ones - right below the profile pic.
Perhaps they would look better if the font size is reduce a little bit.

Its hurting eyes to see continuously.

Yep, totally agree. Too much white hurting eyes.

Will be helpful if there is an option to switch back to older version. Like how we have in Gmail and gradually remove the switch back option.

That isn't going to happen - and for very good reasons. If you have two stylesheets, then that's two things you have to maintain as the site changes and new functionality is added.
