...maybe too much blue?

I notice that signatures only appear once now. I'm thinking the forum rules may have been reset to defaults rather than this being an actual change but we'll see what Kisai says.

Cool. Now it blends with the main page.

And I'm not sure how my sig looks with the new background color, what with the transparency... I'll have to check after I post this...

Yeah I don't like it too much......

Where's my edit buttons for all the posts? It says I'm a moderator, but there are no edit buttons.

Other than that, niiiiice.

It's funny. Joel's sig keeps going on and off.

Tis a mighty fine forum layout.

My only suggestion would be to adjust it to expand to 100% of the page width rather than a stationary 800 px, for us high screen resolution people.

I was going to reply to this but I kept clicking on the wrong quote button and now I've forgotten what I was going to say.

So, yeah, it is a bit confusing without the lines.

Heh. I guess the forum's changed gender, then.

I was going to suggest simply switching your theme back to subsilver_keenspace, but as you can see from this screenshot it's gone pretty stinkywigfiddle.

(Also note the advert's unscrupulous use of the Badaboom font for undisguised monetary gain)

Top banana looks ugly. Other than that: wow!

McDuffies · Post by **McDuffies** » Sat Feb 04, 2006 5:56 am

Apart for lack of "edit" button, I noticed that the size of signatures is now limited.
That means, I couldn't change my sig, it was reporting that it's too long - although it was about the same size as the current one.

Mr.Bob · Post by **Mr.Bob** » Sat Feb 04, 2006 5:58 am

My banana! Gragh. Perhaps a PNG transparency will come out better.

Keffria · Post by **Keffria** » Sat Feb 04, 2006 5:59 am

Yeah, I saw the pink~ish design, but it's just not the same.

The blue is just strange and new; I'm sure I'll get used to it, and complain the next time the design is changed.

Joel Fagin · Post by **Joel Fagin** » Sat Feb 04, 2006 6:12 am

I think the font's too small but it's taken me a while to figure out the problem with it being too small because it's quite readable.

I think it gets lost. People post one line posts and the text is too small to really stand out in amongst the quote buttons, avatars and sigs. I actually thought, earlier, that I'd missed putting that little quote in my sig because I hadn't noticed it - it's entirely overshadowed by everything else.

(See, this is the trouble with forums. Half the problems with the design you don't notice until you've been actually using them for a few hours.)
