I totally love the new VGChartz website.

You guys do realize that they aren't done with the website. Their are plenty of bugs that they are goina be ironing out in the next couple of days...expect improvements and just be patient.

I personally love the interface....the black background i like alot, it really looks cool.

I don't know why so many people hate change

Yes but the thing people hate the most is this black background and ioi has already said it is here to say.  If I say I hate it I would be understating things.  Hate is not strong enough to describe what I think of this background.  Also I just discovered how terrible it is.  Even more terrible than I thought it was.  Do you know how I discovered?  I quoted for the first time since the new VGChartz.  Guess what happens?  I can't even read your post.   White text on grey background.  What a smart idea. 

Uhh, I can see not liking the new colors, but how can you possibly not be able to read the text in quoteboxes... ?

Because it is white on a grey background?  You aren't suggesting that is a tenth as easy to read as black on a white background?

We must have vastly different color settings or something, because the background, on my monitor, isn't even close to being light. It's a pretty dark shade of grey.

I think there is a reason paper is white and ink is black and not that paper is black and ink is white or paper is light grey and ink is white.  It's cause one is super super easy to read while the other two are not.  Has nothing to do with color settings.  I'm sure we have the exact same setting.

Ahhh, actually on a computer screen reading is easier on the eyes with white on black. There is less light assaulting your optic nerves so less valuless information for your brain to process. The end result is that you get less eyestrain for the same amount of reading. +1 to the redesign team for the colour change: they (by accident or design) made a change that is consistent with scientific research on how to improve readability on computer screens.

Change always takes getting used to. I don't hate the new look, I do think it has a derivative look to it in that I immediately thought "Gamespot", as have others. This isn't a bad thing though.
