Thoughts?

**ddaybofb** · 11-18-2008, 12:10 PM

I like it and the colors a lot.

**Keyboard Cowboy** · 11-18-2008, 12:15 PM

Like it alot, much better. However, one thing I'd like to see again is specific coloring in exclusive, platinum and gold forum "headlines". Makes it easier to scan

**DotComGod** · 11-18-2008, 01:25 PM

bump, more opinions please....

In the tabs on the index page, Content Dev., Plat Forums, etc., the font is black and barely seen until you hover over and then changes to gold lettering.

Don't make the blue so dark and add some red color to it to liven it up a little bit. I think the old blue and red look was the best.

**jdk** · 11-18-2008, 02:20 PM

As mentioned, the Exclusive, Platinum, and Gold Forums headers should be those colors instead of the blue.

Content Development and Marketplace tabs seem to be crunched up. Have a little extra padding on these like the others. There should also be one that says HOME to display all the forums.

If you are a member and logged in, it shouldn't display the flash tab in the top right. It gets annoying when you run your mouse over it.

In the postbit it looks funny with a small green circle for online but a large report image next to it. Perhaps a custom online/offline image the same size?

Overall, I like the new design. I will continue testing with it, but so far it looks sleek.

pooh... I don't get to SEE it... I don't use IE for anything...

I do like this theme. JDK listed some good suggestions.

Will this be available in firefox by its official release, or only IE?

As far as I am aware, only IE as of now.

Only being able to skin change for testing purposes only works in IE. The skin change feature in vbulletin seems to have an issue.

If the skin went live you would have no issue viewing the skin in any browser.
It will work in all.

Cool deal, get pumped!

**lordbyroniv** · 11-19-2008, 12:34 AM

Very clean and light

An improvement

**Yusio** · 11-19-2008, 12:36 AM

Much better than the current one.

**Carter** · 11-19-2008, 05:44 AM

Only a suggestion...when I click on "Domain Groups" show me only the first page...when I click on page 2 the screen don't change.

**dodo1** · 11-19-2008, 07:00 AM

Pretty good overall!

Especially the new buttons look good.

I'd say change the color of the forum section headers and the color of the forum buttons in the header (Exclusive, Plat, Gold) to make navigation more intuitive.

**Admin** · 11-20-2008, 11:18 PM

Maybe I am missing it but there is no link to the chat room that I could find. Also, as mentioned in another thread, can we get it on all pages not just the index?

Banned: gretyukecy · 02-18-2009, 11:55 PM

that's good part and very nice

Banned: democrat · 02-26-2009, 03:39 AM

Ok: nice clean design, looks similar but hey that's ok, can't expect too much all at once!
Domain groups should have a feature where you can join. Kinda like a social networking tool integrated (Everyone's doing it)
Top Appraisers should be generated of who responds the most in others thread
Cycle through all domains for sale, have a extra features where people can buy top space.

I really think you should go for a hot pink and purple look.. jus' sayin!

There are many ideas and quirks I can recommend to you but the design looks cool and crisp..

**kwok** · 02-26-2009, 02:18 PM

Love it! especially the right corner tab that people can join for membership
