Re: Forum has been upgraded
I thought I was on a different site when I first saw the new style... Still not sure about it, it'll grow on me though. I didn't keep coming back to this site just for the graphical style!

Black text on white background is supposed to be the best -- I think we've just been conditioned to see the black.

When you asked on the forum about the black I said that it was great how it was. I'm sure I'll get use to it though, It's probably just withdrawracketboy wrote:Everybody before said the black hurt their eyes....NeoRage wrote:A bit hard on the eyes now, Great site though!

nice glad you're back up.
The forums match the rest of the site now.

I liked the black better....this really hurts my eyes.
Re: Forum has been upgraded
I'm neutral.
I think I prefer the previous background, but either way suits me fine.

The white background makes my eyes bleed 
Re: Forum has been upgraded
You guys crack me up -- you do realize that most sites are black on white, right?

I have to agree, I prefer the white lettering on black background. My bedroom is usually very dark and I actually avoid most websites with a lot of white in them because it hurts my eyes a lot.
It's also taking a bit to get used to the new layout of all the buttons. I was so used to where all the buttons were that I could click "reply" and return to threads very quickly and easily with my eyes closed even. I know what you mean when you say a lot of websites are black on white... but then, remember my other big hangout before this website... it was SegaXtreme.net which was also white on black background, and I remember well that they went to a brighter colour palette just about the same time the place died down a bit. eerie...
I'll probably get used to this in no time, but it's gonna be a few days of adjustment.
