just testing out a few new Coldplaying styles as part of a few site-wide improvements we've got planned. If all goes well they will stay. If you want to continue using the old style in the meantime it is available via the dropdown menu at the foot of the forum :)

It would be better if the actual board wasn't translucent...

If it wasn't transparent it would be fine, but because it is, it's difficult to read anything.

I agree... this makes it extremely difficult to read anything

The dry 'wit' in me wants to ask if the 'old style' means the board is readable. But it's obviously just a simple coding error - love the new background, and can't wait till the forum is non-translucent. The new style is BEAUTIFUL :heart:

It seems to work on IE Explorer, but when I get on Chrome it turns translucent.

The new style is BEAUTIFUL :heart:Yep, apart from the attack of the whingers (which I ignore anyway) a new style for 24 hours allows me to monitor server performance with an active board and get feedback from people using different browsers. Everything is tweakable :)

The current one that's slightly transparent with butterflies in the background is very nice.

I don't have a problem with transparency ? :confused:

Not much has changed for me. The layout is the same, just a bit smaller, then around the outside I can see butterflies.

A small change, but a pretty one :)

I think the people who were having problems last night were Firefox users. IE didn't show the 50% opacity at all. Its now 97% for Firefox users but still not showing on IE.

This one is nice! But I personally think if we change this blue box to black it'd better......

Much better now, just one little issue using firefox, when I use the dropdown box for quick links, the bottom of the dropdown box disappears under the 'thread' and you can't see or select the bottom 10 or so options.Just checked it thanks, I'll have to have a look into that

It looks 100% better now without the translucency. I can stop complaining :awesome:

Also, is the forum clock at the top of the page slightly out? Don't know if it's just me or not. :thinking:

EDIT:The time is stuck saying "You last visited 16/01/2010 1:06 AM"
