A lot. It'll take at least one admin -- me -- a while to figure out most of that stuff. But we'll get there....

There comes a point in a man's life when change is the last thing you look forward to. :bang:




But, the blue color is really, really cute.

Ya, real snazzy. One problem though, when entering text their is an option for "font colour"!! I mean, really? We're euros now?

Edit: LULZ, I just saw in my preferences that "British English" is the only available language. :lol:

this is amazing looking, easy for these old eyes to look at and makes scrolling through topics much nicer.

Finally found that Round Tuit, eh?

It looks good, Thanks Andrew.

Yup. It does. The one thing that bugs me is the shmutz around the logo, which didn't show before. Anybody got the geek points/time/inclination to put the right gradient around it?

Not I. But while they're there, want the name removed? it's MUCH more visible now.

Actually, I'd like to see it changed to "Bob 'Don't Jail Me, Bro' Fletcher" -- it's the name of the issuing sheriff, after all . . .

The old logo had a drop shadow on a white background. The new forum design has a blue gradient background. I trimmed it as well as I could, quickly.

The best move would be to get the un-drop-shadowed original from Pakrat and re-drop-shadow it onto a middlin' blue background; the transparent-background GIF would then look fine.

It does feel a little "left-handed" with the avatars on the other side, but all in all - a big congratulations!

All in all I like the new look. But yeah, the avatars on the right is kind of freaking me out. Avatars belong on the left..even though I don't have one yet.
