I like a layout that uses the entire screen. This version "wastes" space on either side, quite a bit of space it seems, and so for that reason I don't care for it. All the navigation buttons are nice, but the extra background is a bit much. (IMO)

I like it except for the brightness (I just had to dim the monitor a bit).

I think it would be AWESOME if we could have a choice of color scheme at the bottom of the screen.

I like it a lot - especially the added features on the top. I do agree that maybe some darker borders would make it look more vibrant.

Also, full width version is awesome.

I myself am a web designer and I think it looks great. The only suggestion I have is making it fit screen size, but other than that it looks great smile.gif

My two gripes:

- Just a bit on the light side, a slightly darker blue would be awesome.
- It looks like the "view new posts" page (and I assume the general browsing forums page but that's not how I use .org) has a fixed width, so thread titles are wrapping onto like three lines and it takes up a ridiculous amount of vertical space for each thread. I think this view could be improved.

Otherwise, the new look is bomb.com.

Edit: I retract my second complaint because I just found out about the full width skin. Love it, thank you admins! I'll just have to keep the brightness down on my laptop when visiting .org from now on.

We've updated the theme with a new darker blue and altered many more colours, still work needed but looking better?

Green reply buttons instead of orange if I'm not mistaken? I think I liked the orange unless I've gone crazy and it's been green this whole time. The blues are much better now though!

I actually love green and think a mixture of darker and lighter shades of green would look great. But it doesn't go good with blue.

it looks good, except I have to agree that's it's pretty bright.. I know on some forums there's an option for users to choose the color scheme. could that be done here? that would be nice..

Last time I checked this was acne.org, not danhasamazingtasteincolorschemes.org! The green simply does not go well with the blue. Orange complements blue and looks much better with the current blue scheme IMO. If not orange, then go with something more reddish or purplish, I think that will be better than the green. Don't get me wrong, I love Dan AND I love green, but I'm just not feeling it.

Ohh, the dark blue buttons work too. Thanks, you guys are super responsive.
