I actually like the new look overall (feels 'lighter / cleaner'). Will take some getting used to.. but I like it :) If I find any issues (as I am posting this about 20 seconds after seeing it for the first time) I'll let you know. ;)

Have you checked after I uploaded the adapted logo that jcombs made (clear cache!)?
No, the "adapted" logo looks much better. :)

The 'staff' badge .PNG images don't appear in some forum sections, at least not in - PHPFreaks.com Questions, Comments, & Suggestions

Whenever the forum first came up, I thought I had typed the URL wrong haha.


I'll miss the old flat blueness, but I like the new look.  Looks more current.
Why doesn't anyone ever say hi, hey, or whad up world?

Yeah, I like the change/layout.  Just some colors need adjusting.  I was getting tired of that "blueness", this is still blue but.. more subtle

I see just *

This snippet's from Gizmola's post in QUestion, Comments and Suggestions

Code: [Select]
<li><img src="http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/Themes/core/images/badges/gmod.png" alt="*" border="0"></li>

And this one from Zanus' post right here

Code: [Select]
<li class="stars"><img src="http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/Themes/default/images/badges/gmod.png" alt="*" border="0"></li>
Looks like class="stars" is missing



Added: Perhaps increase font size for code sections a notch or two?

I get the same results as Mchl just posted (after clearing all caches...)

Actually the URLs are different. One is 'core' the other 'default'

Edit: Perhaps keep this thread for actual problems and use a different thread for 'look and feel' issues and comments.

Just testing something
I wonder what a quote inside of a quote looks like right about now

as well,
Code: [Select]
verything in the code tags is microscopic .. i have to zoom in just to be able to read it, but in turn, that makes everything else huge.
Quote
So here's another test quote

Yeah that's a general problem. I remember making it larger every single time we've upgraded.

Edit: Made it larger now (clear cache). Better?

Code: [Select]
A closer CODE tagEDIT: Is it just me or is JUST this board in particular not adhering to the new theme.

Yeah, it looks like Suggestions forum is using the old theme. AFAIR there's a per-board theme setting somewhere in admin panel.

When previewing a post, the text field (along with the 'Post' and 'Preview' buttons) are not centered (I double checked by clearing cache in case it was an outdated css stylesheet issue).

Posts with polls (like this one) have the actual bar graphs too far from the item text.

I like the new look. Looks a little less 1996.

Hmm... I didn't even know there was a such option. Should be fixed now.
