I just want some general feedback on what you guys think of the new forum. I know there are still a couple of technical glitches which I'm working on - but what I mainly want feedback on is the useability, colour co-ordination (things easy to find?) and so on. Thanks.

Could you elaborate on that? Do you mean that the table colour is slightly lighter than the main middle table? (That was actually intentional, lol).

I think the lay out is simple and clear. Colours are fine with me.

At my age, I remember when everything was either avocado or mustard colored.
The first company I worked for did some research, and found that blue is the most "calm" color. I have no idea how anyone does research to get that result. Anyway, I'd say leave the color like it is, and evaluate it again in a few months.

Well, I've had many blue sites in the past and I really wanted to get away from blue this year. I think it's just some design-student phase I'm going through. I just did a big design project to do with war which may have influenced my colour choice decision... I don't know. I've been using a lot of green too.

I'll have to get around finding myself a new avatar soon too. The ones included in this iB3 version are a bit odd... ???

would it be possible to get some pics of vm and swap them for the avatars?
about 10 or so small pics should be fine if its possible

Good idea. It would be good if members can make suggestions on which pictures they want. There are lots of pretty cool photos.

so start a new thread and put a bunch of urls in it to different pics, we then vote on the top 10 or so ( i know itll be hard ) and thoes 10 or so can be shrunk down to the required size and added.
