Awesome update! thank you gog.

Perhaps not related to the Update 1, but ah well. I've been thinking, it seems like you currently have to manually create the images for games and newspost titles. Wouldn't you be (at least a bit) better off with dynamic content for the images.
Within a day, I've seen the "GOG.com Update 1 launched" title missing the image, the Robinson's Requiem Collection 49x49 "New to the store" image missing. Plus currently, the 180x138 Robinson's Requiem image on the front page with the price and the NEW-tag doesn't state "Own it" as other games on the same list that I own.
A combination of GD with the FreeType library can easily used create dynamic content. I'm just saying this so that you wouldn't have to use manpower to hunt down the missing images.

Wow! Very nice work and this will make the site easier to use and nicer to look at.
Thanks you for all your hard work and effort it can be seen in the little things and listening to your users.
Keep up the good work and may gog continue to grow, and grow and grow! :o)

I've noticed another small problem,in the forum when editing a post, an enter seems to be counted again when the edit is submitted so you end up with more space than you intended.
It's not a big thing but it's something an compulsive re-editor will notice

Very nice update
But I fund a bug. When I take the cursor over my games on the shelf it shows 1nsane.

Daedolon, all the images you've mentioned (boxes, news titles...) are automatically generated via the engine. The missing image was a small side-effect of the changes that were applied to the website's core / backend in this update and file propagation between servers. It's okay now though :)

Ah, that's cool, but I'm still wondering why the 180x138 Robinson's Requiem doesn't say "Own it" since I bought the game. Has it something to do with the "NEW" tag on the top-left corner?

is there a way to default to going to the first page of a topic rather than the last when you click on it?

Of course is, you can change it in "My Settings" section.

hmm... well, I guess I should have looked for it before asking.
BUT, it seems to have a slightly major bug. If I choose 'go to first page' then I actually can't view any pages besides the first page. If i click on an another page besides the first, it just reloads the first page. If I go back and choose 'go to last page first' then everything works fine.
I switched this back and forth a few times to verify.

Yup, that happened to me as well. I'm not sure if it is a browser issue (Firefox user here) or if it is the result of the update.

I'm using IE at work atm, so its not a browser thing. I also just noticed I've lost the reply buttons completely from the top of other people's posts. I guess I could do the quoting the old fashioned way, but the buttons would be very nice to get back.

Same problem here. I'm on Firefox 3.0.5.
Another "problem": When you change your forum settings and click either "go back" or "save and go back", you are taken to the RSS feed of the front page, which I'm pretty sure can't be intentional.
