Forum Redesign Tomorrow...

I think Martin must have got some cheap magnolia paint when Woolworths were closing down. It looks a lot like my landing and hall now.

Hi folks

Thanks for the feedback... we were expecting negative feedback immediately... every change we've ever done has been met with it from regulars (though once it beds in people like it).

The idea was to clean it up a bit - less harsh lines, that's pretty much all that's changed.

I think on the main forum page it works brilliantly, on the index pages not too bad, and we need a few tweaks on the post themselves.

We're going to leave it to bed in a few days.

The old look was too harsh and needed a bit of lightening. We're more than happy to listen to suggesions of tweaks to help.

But please give a bit of time to get over the "change" effect first

really don't like this I'm afraid. I can't believe martin said we'd barely be able to tell the changes - what?!
I was in the middle of posting when it happened, thought I was seeing things...

I thought something had gone wrong with my browser. Then I thought to come over to this board to check for announcements. I don't like the changes at the moment, but maybe they'll grow on me.

Seeeeee it's not just me! :j I just got my OH to check too because I thought I was going mad :rotfl:

That is the one and only thing I like. The rest is giving me a headache

Please change it back Martin, pretty please!

Oh my goodness...that is horrible.

How it was originally it kind of matched and flowed.....

this looks like someone has a spare couple of tins of paint and has gone mad.

I agree with this. The main page looks ok but to go into a thread and view posts......not liking it....I like the bold lines to break the posts up
