I fired up the forum for the first time in a couple of days and....wow! A little darker background is desired. I too found nothing wrong with the previous background.

At first I said to myself "Its not that bad", then I realized I was squinting. :p

Hi Guys

We wanted to get the site so it looks the same. Give it a little time to grow on you. Everyone said the same thing about the green color when we switched to that and the black design we tried as well.

You have to remember most of us are up late at night ruining our health playing this game...so the glare seems a bit more then it actually is. Of course if it will get me a beta position with War in the Pacific then I will happily say what a wonderful choice you have made

All you guys that think it´s too bright. Finally here´s your chance to calibrate your monitors to ICC profiles

, helps a lot with viewing colors as they´re intended to look like.

Also, the light look keeps you awake late at nights, so be thankfull you don´t get tricked by the AI or your PBEM opponent just because you start to snooze

Its a secret trick to get us to talk about something other than B-17s.

Ha! We are not easily fooled. Nice try though.

viewing colors? VIEWING COLORS? What colors? What viewing for that matter! Wait, I'm blind! I'm going to have to get an egghead friend to switch my IE to "AudioExplorer for the Blind".

I REALLY do not like this new colour look................it is way too bright and plain.

Most "other" BB's or forums also have a plain white background....I like the old green and before that black backgrounds, because they made this site different (and easy on the eyes).

Well, we´re happy to have a corporate design now

. If (and the word "if" is stressed on) I find time within the next days, I´ll make up an alternate set for those albino types here (hehe just kidding). You can acces it from your CP then.

Just on a side note, we get a lot of positive feedback for the change. But just as allways the guys that don´t like it cry louder

I have to agree with the corporate design...it looks really cool and snazzy..........................I just don't like the white.

Hi Marc
sorry my bad, misread the home page statement (about tieing it into the store system)

Hey, looks great for free

HARD_Sarge

LOL sorry, I am sure it was a lot of work, but it is very ruff to get used to when you first get here

even worse after working all night

dang I can't see the TV set now, hope nothing good is on for a while
