    I like the new style (though it doesnt look complete, with the same blue used as a BG behind "Post Reply" on the page I am on, not matching the darker blue of the header). I especially like the big Search Box =).

    To me, it looks like they had a good idea, but things didn't come together. All in all, I don't really like it. I dug the vbSquare style as well.
    My evil laugh has a squeak in it.

    Why don't we have the option to change back to the old style? I like the more dynamic elements of this new style, but it really don't fit together. You have too much empty space and the overall layout is not that good...

    well I think having to put that ugly yellow was really mean!! I loved the old blue style... but I can understand especially for people that joined this place when it was yellow by default that they dislike this now...

    but what about the empty space thing? I think things look cleaner now, and I also like the custom scrollbarthing in my IE...

    alltogether I think it does look more sophisticated now. Even though there are some things that seem to be a little out of place now... like the smilies and their box for example.. (weren't they flat some years ago?)

    are you guys happier now? Not as much empty space due to the new lines!
    Well I think they overdid that a little, I liked the empty space, made everything look so clean... and the flat searchfield was cool too... to bad we got the old style thing again...

    I miss my custom scrollbars too!!!!
