New forum skin

[Paul]

Hi, you've probably noticed that we've changed the look of the forum this afternoon (those with NW Extra will notice it matches that design), we hope you like it!

 

If you're not a fan of the change, the original skin is still available - just go to the bottom left of the page, click change skin and select 'Netweather old'.

I think this one may take a little while to get used to... so much white!

[johnholmes]

I thought my eyes were playing up even more than usual as I was trying to post the same time as you Paul!

[Summer Sun]

Thought something had gone wrong for a minute this will take some getting used to but I'll get there

[Methuselah]

Very bright...

[Paul]

I think it's nice and clean, but that's just my opinion so please shout if it doesn't float your boat - we can always tweak / change + will keep the old version available for the foreseeable future

[Summer Sun]

Just my opinion but it seems too white

[Methuselah]

It's bright, but it's also very easy to read; I like it.

[abruzzi spur]

White out!  Should keep the snow fans happy over the summer......

 

Like all things new, just a question of getting used to it (now, where are those shades?)

 

AS

[cheeky_monkey]

As each of the community forums aren't highlighted anymore but the the sub forums are.... it all blurs into just one big page of sub forums..a bit of colour would have been nice

[Methuselah]

Any chance of increasing the font-options? I like Bookman Old Style...

[Bobby]

I generally like it, nice and clean design. But I agree it is a bit 'white', some more colour and contrast would be good, I can hardly read the light grey text.

[The PIT]

Needs a bit of colour to define the seperate sections.

Think I will use the new one while at work - I minimise the forum to make it look like I am replying to outlook email - so the more whiter it is, the less conspicuous it looks

[The PIT]

Now I just poste dis no longer just white.....

[Paul]

Yep, it highlights the forums when there are new posts

[Suburban Streamer]

i like it cleaner and easier to read.

i think the top of the page needs some tweaks....it looks a little unfinished or unpolished. the calendar link needs to sit next to the chat link, instead of on its own line. some well placed lines would be good too - like this

 

 

instead of

 

 

but generally a +1 from me

[Paul]

What browser are you using there SS, calendar link is on the same line for the ones I'm testing in?

[UV-RAY]

I thought there was a problem with my iPad, I'm not sure if I like it at this moment in time but like anything new it takes time to adjust.

hi Paul i'm using IE 9

[Paul]

Odd, as it's not doing that for me, will give it a little tweak to see if that helps..

ok. btw seems to be the same on my android device and also on ie 10

EDIT: that's sorted now

[Kain]

Its abit to bright for me..and plain looking.

[Stuart]

better looking more easy to read

[Paul]

Thanks for all the feedback so far, we've made a few tweaks this pm, and will be continuing to do that
