Signing in is difficult with a minimum font size like 18 because the search input box hinders clicking on the user input box.
"Forum Help" and "Forum Council" links do not work without browser script (a.k.a. Emcascript, Javascript).
The formatting tools appear but do not actually do anything without scripting enabled.
When trying to add attachments the "Close This Window" link doesn't do anything without scripting.

I'm not really sure why your trouble is here.
What browser are you using? That looks terrible.
Also some functions of this site require javascript (if I'm not mistaken) this is unavoidable.

It appears the OP is visually impaired in some way and uses a large and/or high contrast font which doesn't work well with this site.

I was wondering about that.
We actually have a subforum here with people who should be able to help better than in general help.
I'll move it on over there. Best of luck with your troubles.

I'm using Firefox 3 with site colors ignored and a high contrast theme.
It is understandable that some features require Javascript, but there is little reason for primary navigation links to require it and that without any alternative. Also, I have tried enabling Javascript via Noscript for "Ubuntuforums.org" and the links still do not work.
