You cannot miss it. It is not a part of the forum page itself. It is always in the same place at the bottom of the viewing area of your browser. Have a good old look.

The toolbar has not been live on the site for a whole day yet so we have not gone through all the time zones once yet. Perhaps the Eastern chaps will have a look in a few hours. I think it will tell a clearer picture after a month as people may not visit every day!

I wouldn't like it either if it was the full toolbar visible all the time but seeing as you can reduce it to just the 'tools' bit showing I don't find it obtrusive at all.

No. I was on about the maps not showing too many people in the far east. I was saying they are probably in bed or something!

There's a white gap at the bottom of the screen that's irritating me. Or maybe it's just me. Otherwise, the feature is cool.

Someone from Hannibal USA too, I wonder if he's a Lecturer?

I was only joking about the Far East thing Keith, I'm sure it's the language thing that's the barrier but there must be many Floyd fans over there I'd have thought.

Here is where visitors have come from during the past 12 months so mainly in western europe and the americas.

1. Europe 52.14%
2. Americas 40.26%
3. Asia 4.17%
4. Oceania 2.58%
5. Africa 0.56%
6. (not set) 0.30%


I like the toolbar. Easy to hide to a compact form if you feel it is in the way. 22nd century here we come!
