We all spend hours on this forum, I look from my laptop to my phone every 5 minutes, it occurred to me that I would like some kind of cohesion between the two screens, like a better look to the forum, a more modern feel. People have said wm is behind in its gui, well in my opinion so is this forum! There appear to be a lot of very talented programmers and graphics people on the forum, maybe you are one? well have you given much back to the forum? Maybe someone could come up with a state of the art flash gui for the forum, so that it is as up to date as all our phones are. I don't know a lot about these things so maybe I'm just talking late night crap again, no one looks in here anyway, I could say anything, like make it look like an iphone No.

bump. the UI could be a bit smoother. I don't know if I'm talking late-night-overtime crap but that's my uncaffeinated opinion at present.

At least one person agrees, The colour scheme really does suck, c'mon graphics people, more black, fruit around the edges, little sheep for my New Zealand friend, these web pages are the dullest most interesting, we need a makeover.

I also disagree!

First, one thing I hate is flash!

Second, I just got used to the changes of going to vBullitn, last thing I want and I am sure a few people will agree with me is having to get used to a new interface. Thats always a bother whether you are switching OS or just changing forum appearance.

Third - if its not broken don't fix it! The forum works and does what it suppose to do so no reason to mess with it.

The colours are easy on the eye for long periods, I found myself reading something yesterday on a music forum, it had a black theme, it was nasty, very harsh, but for me, despite all the excellent points it is just a little safe. I trained as a sculptor and I like to be a bit kinda "out there", this is such an inventive place, as an artist I find my creativity can be stifled by be the wrong space. If some person wanted to put together a new interface for the site couldn't it just run along side this site, like yahoo mail beta does to yahoo mail. One thing I have often thought would be good is to have branches on threads.
The old site really was the old site then. I love the picture, reminds me of a postcard I once saw "The men of West Cork" only less beardy.
