I think its not bad! It looks kinda refreshing! :D I sure like it a hell of a lot more than the old forum... I joined here in August 2001 and the forum has been the same until then... I guess you could say I'm a veteran train simmer! :D :P

Quite frankly...

NO!

I'm all for blue and what not, but I like black text on a white background. Its high contrast and easy to read. The heading and links are fine in blue though.

NO, I do not like the blue font. It realy strains my eyes and causes a headache. Is there a way I can change the color of the font?
Thank you.

Hey

NO!!

I do not like the light blue color. It's to hard on my eyes and I find myself really looking at the print a lot longer. It appears slightly blurry to me.

BLACK would be a whole lot better. I think it would look much nicer also.

The BLUE could be a shade darker. It makes my eyes go funny after a while reading messages. Or is it the off-white blueish tint in the Background Colour ? The BLACK used when posting Messages is better but there still is this blueish tint ! I think the latter is the problem ?

But everbody's eyes react differently. I know of women who could faint looking at a certain colour on their Computer Monitors !

Nope...would prefer black on white. The colors need to be more contrasting.

Mmmmm... I guess it's ok, ;-) but did someone change the colors to like tan?? Yes I had a few pints last night so i'm not all together yet. If so I like the blue an tan scheme looks good there MISSSTER ANDERSON.. LOL (a little Matrix humor folks :P) Anyway it's a nice fresh look to the forums. Now all we need is a good flame war to break the new look }>

I don't like the white background. It hurts my eyes and it is hard to read on, and no I was not out drinking last night. :)

I agree with most of you guys. I like the improvements made to the forum, but I like the old color scheme much better. The blue on white is very hard on the eyes, it's much too bright. And I still can't figure out how to add my little Big Boy.

I like the blue font. No offense but if you can't read it like I tell my Dad then get some reading glasses. My dad has to use a magnifying glass to read the small print in a booklet for a wrist watch.

I don't have a problem with the blue font. But it is sometimes hard to tell where the new messages start. At the top of the page it says, "Color icons indicate new message"

However there is not a lot of difference between:
