It's sleek, it's sophisticated, but a bit cluttered. Kinda hard to find things. I'll give it a 7/10.

So is everyone pretty much happy with this new version vs the older version? :)

It's shockingly different.
I've always beena fan of simpler skns, but can certainly get used to this :)

(What's with the levels?)

Kaze
December 9th, 2006, 02:07 PM
Levels denote how much of a forumwhore you are. The higher, the sluttier.

rtanger
December 9th, 2006, 02:22 PM
I know what they are, I mean, are they necessary? (Or at least so big? My avs done grown a new head on the right.....)

Edit: It just seems excessively prominent for being no more than another, more abstract denotation of postcount....

I like 'em that big.

rtanger
December 9th, 2006, 02:31 PM
Hehe, fair enough.

Obviously, I won't change your minds on them, but it doesn't hurt to throw the opinion out there.

(everything else is ace, now that I've gotten over the shock of how different it is.)

the only thing I actively dislike is the BM forums skin being different. I like uniformity dagblastit!

Well Im glad you all enjoy it. This skin should be a hell of a lot easier on your eyes than the last skin we had.

the levels look very bad in the Half-Life forum. They're stacked on top of each other like they were here last night.

I am glad to hear all the good feedback about our new forum skin. I know not evryone feels the same about the change, But we cant please everyone. Over all I feel we have done a great job with the change and would like to thank everyone who has put long hours into getting the new forums up and running. If there are still concerns or dislikes with the forums please let us know. It doesn't mean we will change them but we do consider every opinion posted. I hope you enjoy the new look and we look forward to your thoughts on the release of the new website coming very soon.

the who is online now list is the only thing that bothers me atm

all the users look the same X_X

staff need a diff color

rtanger
December 9th, 2006, 06:01 PM
You get to be bolded, it separates you well enough from the peons such as myself IMO.

klaymore
December 9th, 2006, 06:12 PM
yeah but you can barely tell

you have to go through and read it to see who is staff

rtanger
December 9th, 2006, 06:14 PM
Oooh, I see. You're worried more about differentiating staff from moderators, and making it overall more clear. amirite?

Could be handy, actually.

OWNAGE TIME
December 9th, 2006, 07:23 PM
Yeah what I am going to do is make the staff Underlined bold and orange on the bottom menu but that requires some edits because I can't change usergroup color of staff since that will show up in the posts that they make and we don't want that. Do not fear tho it will get done :)

If you haven't already, make sure you hold shift and refresh the page (to clear the cache of the page). A lot of the images were changed, but still keep the same URL, so you will not see them until you do a hard refresh.

Figures I'm late to the party. Looks really, really great though. I'm lovin' it.

My petty bickerings -> The gradient behind the Quote/Multiquote/Quick Reply buttons on each post is a pretty hard transition over on the left side of it. But that's just nitpicking. :D

Chrispy

Maybe this is just for me, but in Firefox, at least, there's a pretty odd border around messages you reply to when you hit the Quote button. I explained that poorly.

Hit Quote, new window opens to type your response, and around all of the text in the text field there's a box that expands as you type more.

klaymore
December 9th, 2006, 08:38 PM
yeah I noticed that earlier

wasn't sure if it was deliberate or not

rtanger
December 9th, 2006, 08:40 PM
Yeah, here's a picture of the error in-action.

look under [/quote] and you'll see where I started typing. Threw me off badly at first, that's for certain.

It only happens with quote fields, so far as I know...

Excuses! Upgrade to 2.0 already.

Everything is still looking great, with the exception of that gradient thing I mentioned earlier, and this strange box.

Oh, and I demand that we finally get the :| smiley on here. I don't see it, and even if it's there the code isn't :| as it should be! :pshh:

This site is awesomeness, one of the things that bothers me is that the loading times are slightly slower, I hope you guys don't turn into SPUF forums were it's uber slow...:ohmy:

Oh and the smileys look a bit doogey against this skin when there in a quote box like my sig, fix plz. :)
