It's better for me, although it's not easy. But, I always have trouble with similar colors layered on top of each other.

Did the Jolly Green Giant take up web design?

j/k I love the new look! (If my eyes can ever adjust!

)

Still showing the same color. Olive green lettering is tough to make out against a white background.

Just last week, I had to get my first pair of bifocal glasses. Don't make me have to go back and change my prescription so soon.

I'm not having any trouble at all with the olive green against the lighter backgrounds, only against the darker green of the headers.

Interesting.

Hm...I'm a little more skeptical of the new color scheme... But I guess it looks alright. It doesn't make my eyes *completely* bleed.

I guess it'll be something that will have to grow on me.-jay

I am really a fan of Subsilver for a skin and I feel the green color scheme clashes somewhat with the blues/grays. But I understand trying to tie it in to the new logo. So, I don't know how I feel over all about it.

I think I feel the blues of the background of the new logo work fine with the original blue color scheme. But again, I can see the desire to somehow tie the two together more.

I'm not keen on the dark shade on the top-and-bottom bars of the forum list/topic list/posts bits. Plus, I'm just noticing because it's right above the quick reply box, "Display posts from previous:" is in black on dark green and almost invisible.

Also: the secondary colour ("previously visited", IIRC) for links is still blue, and it stands out among all the green ones.

Edit: Aargh. I just noticed the admin colour on the "who's online". That's damaging on the eyes, that one.

Oh, I love the new color and banner. Then again, green is my favorite color.

It has been blue for as long as I can remember! I like the change. It is good for the little gray cells.

I take my earlier positive comments back. I think I am getting close to an aneurism trying to read these pages. Please make it something less head-achey!

It will take me some time getting used to this new color scheme, if I ever do. Love the picture, though.

Maybe the green just needs to be darker and then it'll work great for everyone.

There are a few bits here and there--black against forest green, olive against forest green--that are tricky, but overall a very nice look.

It's growing on me. (Not literally.)

Picture is awesome!
I find the text colors less so but I expect it's just one of those things I need to get used to.

My comment is to leave the color green for a while until we all get used to it before changing it back.
People's initial reaction, mine anyway, to change is usually negative.

Right now you've got everything flowing together and blending well which is nice and what I assume you wanted.
If you do go back to blue is to give the picture a 1 pixel black border.
That would separate and "protect" the pic from the blue style.

It's growing on me too. Damn kudzu...

Post by **kevinswatch** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 9:26 pm

The green links are still creeping me out a little. Maybe a dark blue for unvisited links instead? (Just an idea.)-jay

Web Design... *mutter mutter*... arcane art *mutter mutter* goggles do nothing.

Well, I can see a new green border, but no new logo (and I've refreshed the page several times.)

Hold down the Shift key when you click refresh.

Nope, still don't see it.....
