Hey Guys, thanks for all the feedback ... both good and bad.
Just so you know we made the decision to go with a white background as the default because that's what most large media sites do. For example, CNN.com or any other major site usually has black text on a white background. The reason they do this is it provides a better UX (User Experience) for visitors because it's a high contrast site. I can understand that might make for a bright screen but I guess I have my brightness turned down a bit.
Either way, these are very valid concerns so I made a new style choice below called The Mustang Source - Grey. This is the new skin but using the same background colors that the old skin used.
Let me know if you have any more feedback. Thanks!

for you guys on this new skin, especially with the grey in the back, easy on the eyes and nice to look at!While I'm terribly against huge sig pics, I think the size I have seen over on F150Forum is great. Everything I try to upload comes out to this size shown, and everything stays nice and neat still. And I'm aware this is probably falling on deaf ears

Did I miss something??
I may be dense or just missed it in tansition, but what happened to Brad Barnnett? Did he leave and hand the forum over to new admins or what? This used to be called Brad Barneets Mustang source, but I dont see his name any where any more. Just wondering. I like the new format by the way,, nice change...

Yeah I missed it,, so about how long back was this??? Oh well I guess he wanted to move on... Still this is the best Mustang site I have come across.
Yes, I believe he is still highly involved with MCA.

I should think he did well with the sale of this site, he was certainly smart about getting vendors and advertising. The way he got all those mods on that silver vert of his from all those vendor, probably for free or cheap, showed his smarts for making money. As far as I can see he built this web site up from average to prime !
I should think he is doing well on that island!!

Can't you rein in the rants? I recently joined The Mustang Source, and I'm about to unjoin, because I'm tired--already!--of reading the generally right wing rants of a bunch of racist idiots. Is there no way to report these people to you? I thought this was a forum about Mustangs, not about politics.
