'Latest Replies' links on forums home page

Looks like the layout has changed a bit under the "Latest Replies" column under "Statistics - Top 10" on the forums main page ("+'" instead of "New" and "-" instead of "Old" for flagging new posts, etc.), and the titles of the threads are being cut off way short before the "..." is added. Looks like another 10 characters or so could easily fit in the titles within the default 1024x768 resolution...

Yeah, I was noticing this too. I use this feature a lot, and it's weirding me out.

I'll get used to the (+/-), but the truncated thread titles are something I don't like.

FWIW, I agree.

And I don't recall 'Top Posters' being shortened either.

I suspect it has to do with the amount of space allotted to the tables when users aren't logged in and the side banner ad is up. Looks like the columns widths needed to be decreased to eliminate the horlzontal scrolling issue.
