New Forum Background

The tiny spots make the monitor look like it's dirty. It's rubbish, can you please put the white back or at least give us the option of restoring it.

Very bad idea, it looks very cheap.

A much better background would be a type of watermark saying MSE or suchlike.

    I think they might mean the slightly speckled background you see when viewing the forum/site at less than full screen width?

    Can be very obvious or very hard to see depending on your display type and settings.

    is that the same as when they had snowflakes?

    I don't see these things, I have full screen settings.

    The only place I seem to see that effect is in the background of the title bar (i.e. behind the red MoneySavingExpert.com at the top)

    ... and in a slightly darker shade down the bottom where it says "Important! How this site works"

    It doesn't really bother me ... but then I'm also used to working with a dusty screen :p
