Re: New look for Arch website?

While I think that the names of the Forum moderators are interesting, I think having them for each forum is a bit redundant. Why not make it a link to a wiki page; and should they become different for each forum, they could point to an anchored description of the forum in the wiki page. Dunno. Just a thought.

Re: New look for Arch website?

If you guys [using Firefox] don't like some of the colors (nothing will please everybody), just use Stylish and fix it to how you like it.  The background is a very light baby blue on my monitor, but I have seen it look purple on some other LCD's.

I for one quite like the new look, you guys did a great job.  Just the other day, I was noticing how the different sites had a lot of different things going on, and most were using their own stylesheets.  This uniformity is very nice.

Is this look going to extend to the "other" sites (eg. planet.archlinux.org)?

Liking the new look, although I do feel moving the {Index User list Search Profile Logout} links to the right would make for much better usage.
At present visiting the site and selecting forums means looking for means to login etc, if the forum menu was on the right it's much easier to navigate.

Oh guys, come on, it's already been answered. Refresh your browser's cache or/and Ctrl+F5

I really think that GREEN for code tagged text isn't good, it hurts the eyes.

I don't like the light yellow/yellow colors that's used as background for posts and the messageboxes...

Yellow is not an "Arch color" and it looks weird. Also, the "active" color for hyperlinks (i.e "a:active" in CSS) is orange which also falls into the "not an Arch color" category.

Re: New look for Arch website?

Is it just me or does everyone have a large blank area at the top where "index, user list, ..." are?

A more positive note, the new theme is looking really good.

ctrl+r

that helped me too

Re: New look for Arch website?

By the way, anyone who was using the dark forum/dark home userstyles, I posted some small edits i did to both here.  This is how i like my archlinux pages

some things need fixing.. but overall (and with this color/userstyle scheme) i like the new layout a lot more now
