    the quotes being a different colour is a good idea, the front page looks cleaner but the posts are harder to read as the page is far too "bright" and everything runs into each other, in fact it's hard to tell the section on the left that shows the posters name is actually a different colour :(

    Please sort it Martin as it is too difficult to use for extended periods of time

    I must be in the minority but I much prefer this new look. It's cleaner and less cluttered to the eye. It reminds me of the old forum software and look a few years back, only better. :) :T

    I don't do CSS, so what changes what in this?

    With my laptop screen tilted fairly far back, I can see the yellow backgrounds. I don't like the colour, but at least it's clear. However - with my screen in that position, I can't see the content of photos - they are too dark.

    With my laptop screen in the position I usually use, the backgrounds look very pale pink. Together with the green, it looks like a hospital that hasn't been painted since 1979.

    With my laptop screen tilted further forward than usual, I can see very little contrast on the pages at all, and it's difficult to read and even more difficult to scan.

    I'm not averse to changes to the MSE design, as I never thought the old one was very good (sorry!) but apart from the forums list looking slightly less cluttered now, I don't think this is an improvement - rather it's worse overall.

    Another negative here. The main page looks like one of Martin's stripey shirts.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    I think the new colour scheme is absolutely horrible :eek::eek::eek:

    I find it hard to concentrate on the text in the messages,

    and it is no longer a pleasure to view the pages for any length of time

    in fact I hate the new colour scheme so much that I will not be posting again until it's sorted out and if the new colour scheme is to stay then I will quietely go away and do my comping elsewhere :mad:
