Am I the only one that thinks there is too much contrast in the colors? I wish some of the grays were maroon. The colors are making my head hurt. It reminds me a lot of the new version of Microsoft Office (and why I had to revert to Office 2010).

The new features are awesome though!

The gray background behind each posters name needs to be darker. It's too light right now and needs to be darker to help seperate each post.

I'm in agreement with the OP.

Along the same lines...


Why is the user BG color identical to the quote background.... user/title header should be darker, there is not enough contrast....

I wish TA's would reconsider their color schemes a bit.

staff posts should be blue... this is what your users know and are looking for... it's what we've been trained to spot.

make the POTD or 'starred' posts like green... and doing it at 4*s is silly.... make it dynamic... make it grow/fade INTO a color based on the # of stars it has... making every post 'full bright blue' when it gets four stars is too simple. A post that has 90* should look different from a post that has 4*

Background is #4D4D4D. Much easier on the eyes.

Also, change the Forum title at top of thread to #FFFFFF (pure white to offset the darker background)

There definitely needs to be more background contrast. For lack of a better term, the page is bleached out and it is difficult to read.

I like a lot of the new features, but I have two main issues:

  • The lack of contrast in the color scheme
  • The page width
The page width, I'll probably get used to. The color scheme is going to make me read the site less often.
