Not a big fan of the new style. At the least, changing the "read/unread posts" images is pretty important, as a tiny ass 5 pixel arrow doesn't really show the color distinction between blue (read) and grey (unread).

Other than that, I'm sure I can get used to it, though I dislike the thick blue line between posts.

:P Well, I like it. The other style is still available, though, under your user control panel, if you decide you really hate this one.

There's also the icon with the gray check, at the left, for unread posts.

More importantly, there are login fields at the top now. Yay.

I might make some more tweaks. I would rather have blue indicators in some places but the style makes you pick two primary colors, and 100% blue wouldn't look that good anyway.

As a side note, I backup the database when I make forum updates, and was surprised to note it's almost 150 MB now. WTF.

I don't hate the new theme, but I miss the muted color scheme of the old one. The bright blues are very jarring.

I bet she spent five hours carefully selecting and implementing this theme, and the first responses she gets are "I'm sure I can get used to it" and "I don't hate the new theme."

I think the new theme is bolder and the new style (and logo) helps distinguish the forum, as the old theme was more or less the same style as any other forum. I mean, it's nothing revolutionary, but it's different.

I think I'll see how it goes before I develop any opinions or suggestions.

I have only two complaints, one of which (the read/unread posts within a thread) I see as being of some importance and the other being nitpicking. I guess I should have phrased that differently. I do like the new setup on the top for sure though.

Coming from the master of negativity over here i'm not sure how to read that statement.

Might I recommend [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cat_in_the_Hat]this[/url] and working your way up from there?

I took your advice and followed the link,
I read it all twice and then gave it a think.

I looked at each page and scanned every line,
I really devoted a great deal of my time.

And when I had finished I sure felt smart,
but what happened next gave me a start.

I'm stuck this way, and I think it's a crime.
That when I talk I can't help but ryhme.

So in this arguement you should take a hike.

Sincerely, Spike.

Beautiful rhymes, Spike :lol:

I like this new style. Quite a pleasant surprise after not posting in a week or so.

Dr. Seuss had at least some semblance of a sense of meter, though.

As much as this new style is refreshing to the forum I find the posts a bit difficult to read. Although maybe it might just need a bit of adjusting. I'll give it a good week and see how I feel about it then. I liked the surprise Terra

Seems all right to me.

I like that you added the new forum banner to the old style as well. :D

It's annoying. How would I know which thread I've read and which I haven't? It's too spread out and some of the little things are unncesassery.

Worst Style Ever.
