don't see any announcement or other posts about the new look for the forums? not an improvement. The Threads/Latest Post/Views/Posts headers are white on white? who designs this stuff? and the date/time and count of posts is still that light gray on white and gray background, maybe slightly darker than before, but still not as easily readable as it should be. BLACK TEXT is how it should be. regular posts are ok still, but the main forum list is just not good. no way for us to change the skin. I do NOT understand software designers, have they never read all the User Interface guidelines about readability in the last 30 years?

ok, you're crazy smile. Now call me a cab. Or call me, maybe? Or Ishmael. Or MISTER TIBBS. Call me, call me any, anytime. But don't call me Shirley. And ya doesn't have to call me Johnson.
but really, they can experiment on test pages and ask opinions like they usually do. it's been like 2 years since they were looking to change the forum software, so hoping this can't be it, unless it's under development, but that's what test pages/sites are for.

I'm with Crazy and Mister Tibbs on this one. If this is a trial run, roll that back asap. Terribly hard on the eyes.

Or maybe there's a way to give us an option of skins we use? So people can decide for themselves?

That would be nice, and how many many forums are.
And for rixmaxx, I'm using a desktop monitor. While the layout is the same as before, and the forum titles stand out well, and I like the blue, the white w/shadow headings are hard to see, no idea why anyone would make them that style. Should be just like the forum/thread titles.
