Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

[QUOTE=palmer]What are you doing starting a protest? I wasn't trying to emulate anything. This is the only board I visit so I don't know much about many others. I was trying to give you guys something slick, different and easy on the eyes. Some of you like it... some of you are very vocal about hating it. Whatever... get used to it. For a "progressive community" you guys aren't very accepting of change....

and...

settle down. we get it. you don't like it. unfortunately you are 1 out of 5000.[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't say he was the only one....

It's a good looking scheme, the orange/black combo is striking, but I just find it uncomfortable to read. I've given it some time, and it ain't doing it for me. I think there was nothing wrong with the old scheme at all. In fact it was great. Change for the sake of it....?

[url="http://member.php?u=84"][color=#66ccff][b]asdf_admin[/b][/color][/url]'s post above is a good example, it's just a bitch to read a lot of text in this scheme. And the quote about "White Text On A Dark Background Is The Best For Your Eyes. It Is Proven" - well it's kind of light grey on dark grey really....

Anyway, no disrespect intended, just my opnion, the site still has the same content and that will do for me.8)

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

inspite of all the negativity towards the template, its incredible that we have the highest number of users in 1 day of the site going live than we did on MN in 1 year... :lol:

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

not to metion that subtle color templates looks like freebies, this looks like a custom design....... at first I was against a black board too but as time moves on, its just grabbing me by the collar, I just cant stay away from this template..... sorry I dont agree with those who think the black is too black....

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

excellent new layout. way way better than the old blue one, which i thought was too complex and slow.

Good work again guys!!!!!!

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

[b][color=orange]alright, I'll let up for now. but is it possible to get the avitar size back to normal?[/color][/b]

[b][color=#ffa500]also check out page 6 or 7 of this thread the picture of the site inside the post messed up the orientation or the rest of the page. I noticed that you can adjust the size of the image inside of the text box. is the image so large that it is messing with the formating of the rest of the page? does anyone else notice this?[/color][/b]

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

I still don't understand how people complain about this being harder on the eyes. It's just the orange that seems outta place but then again, in two weeks time, should it change to blue, that would seem outta place too.

@ Daveman: I hate to tell you this, but that god awful orange bold text you have going on is absolutely killing me.

Re: WELCOME BACK FELLOW MS'ers

Glad to see the site is back again. I think it's a nice change. It takes a bit to get used to, but is fine... Although as someone points out, the layout does remind me of the old GU board...

Nice work guys!

[QUOTE=tallinn:express]looks good to me, except color, the black is really hard on the eyes, is it final board color?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, totally, the black and white color combo is burning my already tired eyes!! Why not use the same colors as the main page? Or, grey with black lettering. :shock:

Really in one day?? Words get around quick. "MercuryServer changed templates and everyone is bent out of shape. Drop what you're doing and LOG ON!!!!"

I like the look...it's the different functionality that is talking some getting used to for me. You do something (almost) everyday for over 2 years and it's like Posting Autopilot. Now I have to think about what I'm doing. Maybe because it's (drumroll please)...........different.:D

But I'm getting used to it. I just thnk it's cool that The Team was like "Fuck it...we're gonna shake this shit up. Haters be damed.":lol::lol::lol::lol:
