Is it just me or is anybody else seeing the Watch in strange colors? The site layout's all orange and dark brown and there's a little red "x" where some images should be. Maybe I smoked something last night, I dunno, but this can't be right!

It's just me messing around

Will you be fixing images and such any time soon? I'm not sure I like the colours mich, but it might look ok with all the pics working.
I do like the way the avatars and sig pics contrast with the background, btw...

It's 4am this side and I'm first going to get some sleep
If you guys can say what's missing, what you can't see etc that'll be great as it will give me a reference to work with.
Thanks

I like it, though I've always been a fan of the darker schemes. Got a Farscape feel to it.

Not showing up w/out highlighting... admin names on the index, "Who is Online."
Also, I think the yes/no buttons aren't working right either.

It needs a little fine tuning. Some of the icons from the old layout are recurring--like the old "new topic" icon, etc. I like it, but it just takes some getting used to. Feels more homey than the old style.

The Edit Profile is a little screwed up - the text box background is white, and the new font colour is white... Other than that there does'nt seem much wrong - maybe orange-text-on-brown-background in the who's online bit looks a bit odd...
Edit - okay, why's everyone always a step ahead of me on this? Okay, so it'd been almost an hour since I looked at Edit Profile - looks fine now.

it's hard on my eyes at the moment, I've never been a big fan of white on dark colors. But, I'm sure I'll get used to it.

egads!!
If you do keep this, it looks like I'll have to change my sig color and my title and name colors...clashing horribly!

Aargh! change the font colour in your sig, Furls - the contrast's really hard on the eyes!
Actually, your title and name colours look pretty good, it's just your sig....

This olive seems better
And my eyes are adjusting now.

I'll get used to anything that makes the site better for SRD's official site.

Now that I've been staring at these colors for an hour or so, I have to admit I like it very much. I've done html editing myself and I know how hard it is to get every little detail converted so I understand the little bits and bobs that are still a little off. If we're trying to match the new SRD web site then I'm even more pleased.

I beg your pardon... You all seem to like this new order of things very much... but... I feel like I was 4 years old again. Is this some kind of 70ties retro thing? Brown on brown with some orange and yellow??? It is like, super-brown here. Neon-brown... Glow-in-the-dark-brown... 40 shades of Brown?
Well, perhaps it is just me.

Vain, quick observation here...I was looking in "Dissecting" and all the quotes are a pale pale white on a black background. Very very hard to see. Don't think that is going work, it's like the spoiler, only you can barely see the characters.

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with the quotes - yes, they're dark on dark, but I can still read them prefectly fine...
