Nah... you get used after a while... I hope. Lets give this the benefit of the doubt.

I think its far far better than this shocking blast from speakers on the old page. *That* made you click faster than your own shadow.

Just this strange blueish color when typing new posts seem a bit...off.

I like the dark green. And the menue.

Navigation might be very complicated for new guys though. Too many options you dont know knothing about. Maybe a little more info in the "Home" section?

We will be tweaking things over the next couple of days.

It is funny how the colors appears on different monitors.  On mine, and NATE's, these colors are pretty subdued with good contrast.

But, we will be making adjustments.

you just need to put up a monitor calibration graphic on your help page. kinda like those "reccomended" settings. I'm sure a lot of folks monitors are out of whack. :D

Good to hear. I think most people have a problem with the gold text not being dark enough. If you could make that darker, I think it would be fine for most.

Anyone else having problems with firefox on the new pages? I can't get the dropdown folders to work at all. Also old saved direct links to the ubbforum ceased to work, I'm getting directed to the frontpage instead.

Otherwise the new look is a step in the right direction even though I really don't like the choice of colors in the UBB background. I understand it's in accordance to the chosen color scheme of the rest of the site but I really preferred the grey background for text.

Yellowish shades in large quantities give it a dirty and nervous overall look. If the aim was to get a military style look, fine. Just leave the posts background as it was, please.
