What's your opinion?

We're still making a few small different changes here and there, but the Boards look is nearly done.

I think it's pretty sweet. Although, the banner at the top is longer than it used to be and fits awkwardly into my browser. Haha. I could just expand the window but I like being able to see my icons on the right, my buddy list on the left...

Linking it - esp. as now the blogs too are connected in style. I would defo say the banner - if not making it smaller, make it so it the left hand side hides if you make it smaller? Retaining the name on the right, but making it look nice. I personally love a fixed width board which sorts all this out - but people use different screen sizes to me and I'm not the only one on earth!

we could make the banner smaller and/or revert the board to a fixed width. I found that some larger pictures such as screenshots also tend to break out of the frame on the right. I don't know if we can hide it so that it stays inside the frame border and vanishes if you scale it down though....

I don't like it. Sorry guys. It is too dark. And it is hurting my eyes. In physical I mean. Fonts are too small and hard to read. And those on buttons like SEND PM are totally unreadable.
And the Web 2.0 'standards' says that sites full of light will won many readers :P

Please make a possibility to chose between two themes. Old was very good (readable) and you don't need any work with it. just leave it on the server...

fixed the minimal with to 1024 and used a smaller banner
So it should look better on smaller screens.
Will try to do something with the fonts...

i like it also, but it's a bit too dark or, moreover, there's just too less contrast.
It's hard to differ between things :(
