How do you like our new look? The new look is an attempt to brighten up the board and try to make it more attractive to new posters. Any comments on how it looks now or what you think would look better would help! Please keep in mind a side bar is going to be added with lots of features like a link section and contests! ThanksShow results
Is it just white and grey and dark grey? or is it not working?
Also, I would like to see the introduction varied in size and/or font. I love what you say... just overwhelming... for newbies... Ah, I see some pictures.... maybe it just hasnt loaded... dialup you know.... Nice!
Re: How do you like our new look?
For me, it is right behind the posting frame. So it cant readily be seen. So, shrinking might help. Its a great pic. Looks a little like the beatles dont you think?
Re: How do you like our new look?
Ok, I checked in here at work and it was lovely... The pic stayed put and the postbox scrolled. But at home, the pic stays behind the box... I use Firefox at home... I bet that is my problem.
Mart, it looks great

Re: How do you like our new look?
personally I'm not too fond of a white background, but it makes the picture of all the Pythons come out better. That pic is the reason I voted 'great'.

Re: How do you like our new look?
cherithh: Thank you. Unfortunately I discovered this problem when I switched to motzilla a few days ago. As far as I can see there is no way of getting the code to work in all of the odd little browsers out today. The effect will only work in Internet explorer and maybe some versions of Netscape. this is because the code is based from a Microsoft program and therefor will only 100% work with other Microsoft products. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Niwi: Thank you also. The white background is there to give the board a more "lit up" look. and to help that picture. I wanted to use that picture very badly. It has been sitting on my computer for about a year and I haven't been able to use it as my desktop background since having 6 people stare at you like that while you are trying to write a paper made me nervous.
The side bar should be up soon. I have been having trouble with some of the code I wanted to use and am now switching to plan B.
