Cricket web New skin !!!!!!!!

I don't like this skin for the forums. The stream-lined approach looks good on the main site though.

I'd REALLY REALLY REALLY like some different skins.

My personal (not being much of an artsy type either) view would be that the dark blue bits are a little too dark, the contrast with the now much lighter background colours makes them almost look black, other than that I think the new look is nice and crisp.

Iam not sure where I stand on that I don't have much of a problem with the dark blue, but I do think there is a case for following over the new dark blue colour from the main site to keep everything matching, and the slightly lighter colour might fit in better.

Could we get some orange in somewhere?
Umm not sure if if Orange would fit now, but I can tell you the famous colour wont ever be forgoten while we are with our current host :D

Maybe James could make the ads at the top have a nice orange background, would probley be the only spot at the mo.

I meant, instead of the buttons like "Reply" or "Quote" or similar which have yellow text, we could change the text colour to orange. I don't know, somehow, I've always believed orange goes well with dark/navy blue.

James / Rich - is there any chance of having a choice for skins?
I dont see why that couldn't happen, will have a chat with James tonight. for you. :happy:

I know James is going to be very busy over the next month so if it isn't done tonight it might not be done stright away (Just an advanced warning).

No worries - I know these things can take a bloody long time especially when one is busy - and thanks. :) Also, just out of curiosity, will you be creating new buttons to go along with the banner?

Yeah I know, I think it's a bit rude of James to be studying for an exam and not focusing our our needs :D

As for the buttons, will find out for you tonight again as Rich was getting a bit tired at 3:45am when James started playing about with the forums... Rich aplogizes for his lack of commitment :D

if u look at the result in a poll in new skin the dark color is not easly identifiable which show the number of votes polled. u could make it white or may be orange :)

It makes my eyes hurt..
Strange that alot are having problems, to me it's easy on the eyes and easy to read - I can see a reason if it was bright white but the dull gray takes the sharpness out of it IMO.

What would work for you guys a slightly darker gray?

Mind you there was alot more negative response from the last design when launched with all those funny new bold colours and you all come to love it :D - Give it a week and you probley wont be able to remember what the old one looked like :D
