Am I the only one having problems? This website seems not to be set up to also work with google chrome ... I only have proper formatting in MSIE.

There IS something going on on the forums as I am experiencing it, as well.

And it seems intermittent, as if someone is working on code and messed it up a bit in the process.
Looks like a line of css is out of place or some such organizational tool.

Thanks for confirming for me: it ain't chrome nor my system!

This happens when you use the dpi scale in Windows. Windows isn't very well in rendering content for displays with higher dpi. I first recognized it on my retina MacBook/Bootcamp. Windows 8.1 didn't bring solution either.

We have had a problem on one of the machines in the office here, where font sizes are not being correctly calculated by chrome.
Mainly the menu and buttons had problems (when you hover over them it seems to calculate the widths correctly).
Force refreshing (shift+click refresh) seems to solve the problem, until you refresh the page again without the forcing.

I have added a CSS "hack" to the style-sheet to try to solve this problem in chrome.
It seems to be fixed on at least the machine that was having problems here.

Was this the same problem you were having? How is it for you now? (you may need to force refresh a couple of times to get the new style-sheet, then you can browse around as normal an see if it still looks funny).

Thanks
Chris.

Heya Chris ... what you describe is exactly what I had: Everything mushed together and overlapping, but as soon as I'd hover over them, they'd spread out and show properly. At the moment, I don't have it anymore, seems your fix helped .. many thanks :)
