Current forum design OCD issues. Anyone else?

This has been bugging me for a while, but the current forum design (as nice as it is) elicits a really annoying obsessive compulsion whereby once I mouseover one of the animated buttons at the top, I have to mouseover all of the others (both the fading buttons and the smaller ones below it).
Does anyone else get this urge or is it just me? 
(Note: not complaining, it's a great design).

It's not "OCD," it's called "CDO" - alphabetized the way it should be.

No, I can’t say I’ve ever had that particular urge... They’re very nice rollovers, though.

Dyslexics of the world, untie!
Not me, but I hit that damn "Go" button on the forum jumper next to the Quick Reply box instead of the post button so many times I've had to hide it. Much better.

You mean the one that’s five inches away from the “Post Quick Reply” button, outside the box that holds entire quick reply area?
Yeah, I can see how you’d mistake those two...

I have this same issue. And I never look at a page on the forums until all the pics have loaded and resized. The expansion of the page gets my goat.

Yes, I'll get irritated as I try to read a post and the page expands, so I scroll down and then it contracts again...

 Uh.... no. I thought that I had OCD but you take the cake. Maybe I've outgrown it for the most part.

No, I mean the one that looks like a submit button from the corner of your eye. You know, the one that catches enough peripheral vision there's no need to actually look at it to click on it.
I really have no clue where it was (is) exactly, anymore. I just know that after several lost replies I'd had enough. You wouldn't want to be denied of any more of my golden psots !, now would you?
PS, I also set white text to grey.

Maybe he's running at 800x600. Then the buttons would be close.

Can you do that on a 30" Cinema Display? That would be sooo cool.
For about 30 seconds.
