    I'm quite color blind and cannot describe the background color of the stripe intermixed with the black stripe and crests, but the result is quite unpleasant to the extent that it gives me a feeling of nausea. The forum content seems to be less than 60% of the width of the screen using a 20" monitor. The background is totally distracting from the content of the forum.

    I do wish the content were wider too. The border just seems like lost space.

    For the time being you can click on the mobile style at the bottom for a different look.

    a) The strippy background is distracting.
    b) The sub-forum lines kind of break up the flow in a way they did not in the old scheme. Can't explain more clearly... Specifically the sub forum lines extending past the column with the RSS buttons breaks up the flow to my eyes in a distracting way.

    I would like to see left-justified text instead of the centered text. It would be much easier to read!!

    Edit--Weird, it is now left-justified!

    Am I the only one experiencing time issues? I set my time zone for PST, and it currently thinks it is 10:45AM on here, but it is really 5:43PM. Kinda annoying

    x2! I like better the older version look not because this a new and I have to get used to it, but because no matter how many time I waste in the PC looking to this forum skin which I don't like it very much but mostly the centering text and thinner window that display the thread/photos, etc.

    HI guys,

    We still have tons of things to complete before the site is 100% operational. We hear your comments, and
    we will see if changes are needed/possible when the site is fully functional.

    Cheers

    I like the new style, there are a lot of good things I can see from it. The only thing I would change would be to widen the actual thread so that there is not so much free space on each side. I can see where some of you are getting headaches from the back ground. If you scroll your eyes up and down you can get dizzy. That may be solved by widening the thread margins.

    There is any way that I can hit the POST REPLY button and go to "advanced" reply instead that direct me in to "Quick Reply" below?

    For those with not working sig, are you checking box for the signature to be included before posting?

    Thanks

    Magnus, let us know if you are planning to enlarge the width of the page, so we can view a wider photo if posted or just the random posts. If so, any chance when +/-?

    Thanks
