New Style
Kendra and I have been working on this style for a while now. We are trying to bring the forum in a more professional direction and we think this style lends itself to that. We feel this look and feel will adapt well to other new features we will be making available shortly.

We hope you like it. If you find anything out of the ordinary please let us know. We are open to suggestions as well.

It looks so fantastic! I'm excited to have a better look around once I have more time (ie... not at work where everyone spies over your shoulder to see if you're surfing the web!! lol).

Ok I'll be the odd one out. I don't really like it. It's very plain, and quite boring. I thought the previous one was pretty plain, but this one takes the cake.

I actually like the new theme. My only complaint is I liked the avatar being on the top rather the side. It looks nicer on the top.

Edit: You could use a different font for the thread titles.

I'm indifferent. lol

The small print when I type is hurting my eyes a bit, but aside from that it doesn't bug me (although I like the font!). I miss the pawprints instead of the open letter/mail thing for threads, but I think I'll live.

Actually, I lied, something else is bugging me too....if you don't type a lot in your response, there is a huge white gap between what you typed and your siggy....any way to fix that?

Just seems overly simplified. Small fonts, a lot of white, page is skinny, and has greyish/black edges. Can't explain it much more than that, I just find it (like I said before) plain and boring. I just think if you're going for a professional type look to the site, you could add a bit of color and still have it look that way. Even if it's light or off-white. I also preferred it when the page took up the width of the screen, now there's almost an inch on either side of "nothing".
I'm not a fan of all the red fonts either.

I don't know about everyone else, but the pages are loading quicker - at least for me. I'm happy about that.

Hmmmm. I kind of like it. But. And isn't there always a but. LOL!

I must agree that the print is awful small. If I wasn't using DH's honking HUGE computer monitor, I would have to get my reading glasses out to see.

I like the layout and everything. But you REALLY need to bump up the font size in the message reply box. I can hardly see it. I actually had to swithch my monitor back to 800x600 to see it.
