    Actually.... they have been here for over a month.



    At the bottom of every page is a dropdown (currently disabled) that allowed you to toggle between the brighter silver/blue and the old colour palette (this).  The only reason i'm forcing the old colours on everyone is because the brighter colours are not uptodate with the css for the darker look, which we are going to make the default now, so in a day or so  the silver/blue will be the alternate look.



    We have also introduced a lot of updates and fixes today too.  Big changes are:
    • Almost no popups anymore.  We are getting away from them all together.  Notable places this affects are user profiles and screenshot viewer.
    • Features have slightly larger text and less contrast for greater legibility
    • The profile page mentioned in point one, it's tie into your settings.  (from the profile page you can see descriptions of two features that are being worked on that aren't live yet

    I swear man. This site is full of suprises. Well, I must admit I'm glad you "Forced" the old colors on me, becuase I had no clue it was already made, but it's new to me. So how long will you force feed all of us the old colors? You guys did very good. Not only it ties in with settings...are you also saying we will be able to have blogs? Wow this is hot like fire right now. I must admit this is an update going in the right direction. I'm loving this. Makes spying on users easier for me. Did you know your last post was right here?



    Anyway man, this is looking pretty damn cool. I'm pretty sure a few 100 of us didn't even know about the old colors. So when do we get blogs? Also will we be able to write out reviews soon (and not coments)?

    HAH! I knew something was different, just couldn't figure out what!... You also changed the menu buttons..... and the comics page isn't a endless page anymore, nice additon! Oh... and, would it be possible to add Penny Arcade and Ctrl-Alt-Del to the comics? Or do the comic sites have to pay a fee to be in this site?.. suppose so..... still would be nice as they are about games as well..

    I was all excited to see some of the older looking stuff back, but then I quoted you to test it, and it's still unwieldy as anything to quote someone and add your own comments under their text.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

    It's easy if you use Traditional BBML. I agree the Enhanced Editor is a pain in the arse, though.

    I love the new look. It looks very futuristic but it's also user friendly.

    Much better now. The borders blend better with the background unlike before. The header is still too pure blue for my taste, it doesn't match the borders. It should be darkened and grayed a little more.

    Anybody else notice the smokey grey effect?  It's a little annoying on the eyes.
