Nice new skin

[Andrew Herron]

I agree, the hues of the blues and grays seem to wash everything out. How customizable is the theme? Perhaps just make the post body background white?

Doubtful that you need to make adjustments beyond to the CSS, however looking at the code it appears that there is a php file that loads a bunch of different CSS files, so the trick is figuring out which stylesheet controls the element you want to adjust.

Yes - nice new skin.
Like a brand new carpet and bare feet.
Takes a little to get used to - but that is OK too . . .

At some point we can probably drop in some additional skins which each user can select according to personal choice.

That would be really good. The current color scheme is really horrible for like me (a protanopic colorblind person) ... pretty much all the colors now look the same to me.

 

[James Siler]

I like it. Plain and simple. I liked the other look but this is nice and modern as others have said.

 

[Robert Edmonds]

Agree with the colors being a bit low contrast... will get over it even if the colors stay the same.

 

[Jordan Hartley]

2 thumbs up from me. I like others was pleasantly surprised with the upgrade when it came. Love the site call this place my home forum Thx Tim!

Do need to get McG's winning logo design up though. That would be cool to see with the fresh new design.

Since the upgrade, I have had to login every time I visit the forum. I'm not seeing a checkbox when I login that says something like "Stay logged in to this forum", like the old forum software had.

I've removed all StormTrack cookies and restarted FireFox, but that didn't seem to help. Is anyone else seeing this?

I had that problem too at first. The checkbox is below the box where you enter your username/pw and was hidden by the add banner. If you reload the page a couple of times you'll get a add with a smaller banner and the check box will be visible.

I just saw that. I was able to view it on Tim Marshall's ad banner, but it was not at all apparent before on whatever other ad banners were up there.

I've got mixed feelings about it -- it gives me a little bit of a headache reading the content, which I think is due to smaller type and weaker contrast (too many grays and light blues), but the site as a whole has a bolder, sharper look. The dropdown menus look a little more classy, too.

Tim there are custom skins you can download to make it look better and easier to read. just google vBulletin 4 skins.

Now THAT, would be really cool

 

[Josh Richardson]

Just logged in to see the new look, not bad...its always nice to have change sometimes.

 

[Jason Bolt]

Would love to have the new features, but be able to select a skin that looks like the old format. It was much easier to read, imo. This is borderline painful on the eyes.
