Login trouble

Unable to click in the user name box using IE or Firefox to enter username.
Password box is clickable and works fine. To reproduce this log out then attempt to log in.

working here fine..

but i have ran into that occasionally on other sites/forums..

usually click the password box and then HOLDING Shift and then hitting tab will make the cursor backup to the user name box.

Yes, I see the same problem here! - circumvented it by registering again.
Not sure what the problem is but I suspect XP SP3?

I have no idea what the cause is. I logged out and had the same thing happen.
Some how I was able to get to a different login screen that allowed me to log in without problems.

It is a known issue with the christmas theme and was identified a few days ago here. You con logon as normal on the front page but on any other page you must use the SHIFT+TAB to be able to input your username as shown by Judas.

we are aware of the issue but it would require massive changes to the transparent images of the icicles over the login panel front page. As the theme will be removed in the next few days or so we really don't see the point of changing it right now.

Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused, but please feel free to select another theme or login via the forum.
