The following have been fixed (edited from lead post)
- More button ('...' ) options sometimes not completely visible (e.g. My Home, Urgent games)
- Home page text contrast poor in dark mode.
- Board defaults too large causing layout issues (off screen, requiring a scroll.)
- Close buttons not visible in dark mode ('X' ).
I've been making some changes to tablet sized formatting (specifically when landscape) so iPad rendering should be a quite a bit better now.
Thanks for all the feedback so far. Many issues have been addressed since this process started.
Next week, once further testing of the clan code is complete, this beta will become an Open beta which I would encourage everyone to take a look at. (A post will go into Site announcements & General forum to promote this.)
I'm still using a laptop running win7.
I don't usually care for 'dark mode' but decided today to try it in the beta.
In one of my games, my opponent sent an 'in game' text message, and in dark mode I way barely able to read it.
I composed a reply and it was fine as I put it together, but when I finished the message and made and sent it with my next move, my reply was also nearly invisible.
I did try switching between dark and normal mode, and in normal mode the text visibility was just fine. When I switched back to dark mode, it again almost became invisible.
Also, while in dark mode I took a look at the 'chat log' option for that same game, and the in-game messages were fine and readable there in the chat log.
So is this just a problem with the beta, or does it need further attention?

I'll take a look at that, and get a fix up.
Dark mode in general definitely needs some refining, but not enough to hold up the update.
@russsaid An "Abdridged" option has been added on "My Games". I'm open to better name suggestions for the reduced "card" view.
Much improved, particularly on iPad/tablet. (Still looks crowded on a smartphone, but I appreciate that the smartphone app will be a separate update/upgrade).
@Russ I think there is a problem again with the 'my games' page. It came up earlier in the beta, and was fixed, but now it's back. I set the 'my games' page up to show the 'compact' view, but that doesn't stay selected. If I leave the page then come back, or just refresh it, the view reverts back to whatever the default is.

Ok, this is probably related to the me changing the view type ids for the new view type. I'll take a look.
I'm not able to reproduce this - can you do a shift-f5(Win) or ctrl-R(mac) in case of some lingering cache issue?
OK, I tried shift/f5 and ctrl/f5 and it didn't make any difference.
Shift/f5 tried to put firefox into some kind of recording mode, which I have no idea of what that is.
But it's not staying on my selected setting for the 'my games' page. I selected the 'compact' view, but it doesn't stay on that selection. If I open a specific game, then return to my games, it goes to the new option you just added I think.
