I can get use to the various changes, I'm actually getting use to the design already, the thing that bothers me is the color scheme. It's horrible, I would rather look at Geocities websites from 1999 with horrible animated gif backgrounds than this.
I've said this in other threads but it deserves to be said again and again and again: bright green text on a white background is a *terrible* decision.
Since my laptop is generally closer to my face I can at least read it but it hurts my eyes to be on this site for more than a few minutes. At work where my monitor is father and my resolution is higher, I just can't read the site at all. The real sad thing is that we went through the same thing with some VGChartz 2.0 stuff and the horrible red text. I mean crap, have more than one person test things out. These are basic things you're screwing up. There's no excuse to be this bad at simple things like picking out a color scheme that doesn't hurt peoples eyes.
I'm sorry to sound overly bitchy here, it's just frustrating to not be able to read a site I like so much because of simply bad decisions.
My suggestions for that would be to either just fix it or if you're dead set on loving the green on white scheme, let us have some amount of customization. If I could just make gamrConnect match the gamrFeed scheme that would be great!
Aside from that, my other suggestions are:
- I want my non Rich Text Reply back
- Spoiler tags would be a cool addition
- being able to use wiki formatting in posts would be really cool
And a bug:
- After you edit a post you have to refresh the page in order to edit again
Again, sorry to sound so negative, overall I don't have a problem with the redesign and I appreciate the amount of work put in, it's just the color scheme is awful.
