Wow, this is actually quite effective; I changed the light blue and white to darker blue and grey, and it's much easier to look at now!


this is what I got

I'm pretty proud of it actually, I was thinking it would turn out distorted looking but it's looks totally natural

anybody that doesn't like the new colors should check this add-on out

It's all a big improvement except for the white background which irritates my rather large eyes...

this sudden change of scenery makes me a little uneasy.

I don't see how it could be done gradually though.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss the good old oh so familiar green and blue. And the custom titles.

The new layout is very bad! I hope we will have the old design back.

I must admit that when ANY forum I post in or if there are any changes made to my E-mail format or when Facebook makes any major changes - it really frustrates me initially. But I guess it's like getting used to anything new. I feel very awkward at first and then it becomes the new norm.

I appreciate the bugfixes, but ugh, I HATE how the new layout looks. It's just so shiny and bright, TOO bright. :P

Also, where's the quick reply box?

I don't mind the new layout, but I would definitely like to see the old colour scheme back. It was easier on the eyes.

Or, how about a choice of themes?

So you guys would rather have the oudated, clunky, slow layout rather then this modern, clean and responsive layout?

...I am so irritated at all the responses in this thread...lol

What is your problem?

My local cinema has crystal clear digital projection stadium seating Dolby 7.1 sound and is really clean and modern.

But I really miss the days of scratchy reels dull screens peoples heads in my way and filthy screening rooms. :lol:


Oh wait hang on a second your right the new forum is bright clean it loads fast without errors the old one was clearly much better. :P :jester: :jester: :jester:

The option to use a classic theme on the new site would be nice.

I dual boot Xubuntu 14.04 and XP Pro 64bit, and whenever I run Windows, I always use a stripped-down Windows Classic theme with all the fancy animations and stuff disabled! It's nice and snappy, and not distracting.

I agree that the new site is more responsive, but I don't like how it looks, nor how it's laid out. Give me the old, "outdated" interface any day, but keep the current bugfixes.
