Style Changes? Looking for Input

[Atlaua]

So a while back I dropped the big blue bomb style on you guys. I wanted the board to stand out but maybe it stands out a little too much? I've had a number of complaints about readability (I think some browsers display the colors wrong and make some things hard to read). Plus, well I'm not a great visual designer and the whole thing does look a little amaturish.

So I thought I'd give you guys a chance to voice your opinion. I'm thinking about changing the style again to something cleaner and easier to read (and with less graphics to load).

I've attached some thoughts on this, let's have a vote.

I like it the way it is.

You say it looks amaturish, I say its got personality.

Also, it doesn't hurt that blue is my favorite color!

As long as I can read it anything is OK by me. I like it set to the old blue style anyway.

I rather like the old blue style, too.

oops, I voted for #4, but I just switched back to the old blue style and I like it just fine. I'm not too particular about the styles, although some of the banana smilies don't show up well on dark backgrounds, and it really is about how many banana smilies you can put in a post...

darn it, I can't get the smilies to post, so all ya'all will have to use your imagination (Ken- sorry)

BTW, when I say old look, I mean the default super blue, not the legacy blue.

Well Tony, you just screwed up the whole thing. You have become the "hanging chad" of MidwestDive. :2728:

I like blue the old blue just fine, but #4 is a little more contemporary.

As I am not the most affluent poster here I must admit this site is very easy to read with these old eyes!!

:D I like the blue.

I think the other choices are bland

I really like the "Old Blue" style. Please keep this as an option. But fer sure fer sure try out a new default. Maybe something funky? In Muck-diver green-brown? Or that leaves a little silt trail behind the mouse pointer as it moves across the screen?

I'm another of the "Old Blue Style" gang - happy enough that I wouldn't ask you to go to any bother on my account. The other blue was just way too intense, however and made my eyes bleed. A couple of the new skins are okay but nothing to get fussy about. Clean and simple is all that's needed.
