The new look

[Lemminkäinen]

I really like the new look but would like to voice two suggestions:

1) The colour of the font in the posts is a bit too close to the background colour. I mean, I can make it out fine, but a bigger contrast would make it easier on the eyes to read long posts.

2) The smileys have white borders which make some of them look a bit off. Especially the question mark dude looks a bit messy:

If you decide to act on my point one and improve the contrast by making the background on the posts darker, the problem is likely to worsen a bit.

As I said, not big things, and I do like the new look, but especially acting on the first one would make for a marked improvement IMO.

Anyway, thank you for continually working on the website. Much appreciated!

Yeah I agree, it's a bit hare to read so please change the background color a bit.
Otherwise I really dig the new look!!

Thanks for your feed backs.
I have increased the contrast of the text. Let me know if it is better

I will look for fancier smilies later

Please let me know is something else can be enhanced !
(the least I can say is that all these php apps are far from being WISIWIG)

Note that the whole web site is about to be re-designed in a more coherent way, lighter "tan-grey" background and will feature may fancy Eden color-concepts !

Text is much better now but I really like the new forum as a whole, especially getting to see lots of nice artwork!

We recently updated out website (from a crap old mid-nineties one) two weeks ago and have already noticed an increase in business. I guess people are just fickle that way!

Oh yes, thank you! Much, much better.

It's much better. I'd personally prefer to have the forum fill the whole window instead of the frame thingy that we have now, but it looks more professional now!
