I never (again) want to be accused of having a site that isn't updated, so I'm always looking for ways to keep it fresh. I've thought for a while that the forums looked stale and decided last night that it was time for an update. I know the font is small; I'm working on fixing that. What do you think of the new look?

As you already know, I like it except for the font size.
I think part of what makes it hard to read is how close the topics are to each other on each "main" page. There needs to be more space in between each one to distinguish one from the other. Make sense???
Thanks for the change, Brad.
PS Whatever you do, PLEASE find a way to keep the sub topics under the main topics. (like on the forum home page)
PSS(?) It looks like the font of the sigs is even smaller. I think you should keep it that small.

I like the overall design, but just not the "feel" of it. Like has been said, the fonts really hard to read. I run a 1280x760 resolution and its TINY. I dont care for how new unread posts show up either. The bold face type was a clear give away, now I kinda have to squint and pay attention to the little signs beside them. But just my .02 cents.. not like its gonna stop me from posting and reading or anything

if the font was a tad bigger, and if it strectched out all the way, it'd be rockin
and trust me brad, I've never thought of the site as boring, and if you keep being your creative self, this place will NEVER be bporing

Combine this general look/color with the older sytle forums and it'd be better. I like the colors and 'fresh' look, but it's somewhat harder to use. $0.01

Ok after checking it out for a few minutes, I like it.
I'm going to stick with this for a while, it has an industrial, refined feel to it.
I really like how our left mini bio thing stands out, especially our avatars.

Something changed?

I agree, it was time for a new look. Get the font size issue fixed and I am sure more people will like it. It might take a little getting use to but just remember, some people do not like change. I on the other hand do
