Quotes have a contrasting background now, a nav bar at the bottom!

By golly, these forums are better than the old ones now!

And what is this? Posts are boxed so it's not just a sea of black!

ETA and what is this! Edit marks aren't DANGER RED anymore!

And bigger avatars, and nice colors that are pleasing to the eye!

Good on Ya!

So good ah!

    You have an interesting definition of 'fixed'. 'Not quite as horribly broken as it was before' might be more accurate.

    I agree. Well done! Much easier to read and the bottom nav bar alone is worth a pound of bacon. Thanks for your efforts, Trendy!

    Definitely nice changes but, the blue lettering [not the boxed blue saying announcement, it is fine] could be just a tad bit brighter IMO, not complaining! It's just that blue, can be visually hard on the eyes!

    Otherwise, me likes the changes a lot.

    Looks really nice.
    Had to do a six eye blink a few times as the changes happened mid-post for me.

    So my Arc client isn't having a meltdown? Whew! Thought I was experiencing some kind of software hiccup...

    Click refresh, then everything changes... hehe. Good to know it's on purpose. :)

    Looks good too, nicely done.

    The new look/format is nicer. Still needs restoration of a 'Dev Post Tracker' <--- That's something I really still miss from the vbulletin STO board.

    I like it. This was much needed. It was hard to determine what was quote. And having to scroll to the top to flip the page.

    Ahh very nice. I like actually being able to see people's avatars instead of having avatars for ants. :p

    Yeah, it's good, except the new color scheme.

    Now to see if we ever get back the old forum's coolest feature.... And by old forum I mean the Atari Forum. I loved how our forum PM box was shared with the in-game mail system. :D

    Yes, this is definitely MUCH better. I can actually use this form without 3rd party extensions.

    Big thank you to everyone involved in this process. It was badly needed and is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Trendy and any others at PWE/Cryptic involved in this latest change

    Fixed has variable definitions, fixed is unacceptable.

    Seriously though, this is such a major improvement. I had almost given up hope that I would be able to browse this place without getting a major headache within 10 minutes, but this is soooo much better. Thank you.

    Huh... I leave to catch some sleep, and do some stuff after I wake up and you guys remodel.

    Nice...

    Well... one thing I am happy about is being able to see avatars. Now EVERYONE can see that Erza's just as confused as I am! lol

    Couldn't resist. ^^
