    newer design looks SAD!!!

    Dont know why but the tables section don't look nice to me at all
    Too many lines! the tables' borders, including the links' underlines makes it kind of hard to read the topics

    There's also the VB Forums: Gold style set, although I do have to agree that the top bar is a bit blinding.

    They should just put and ALTERNATE design so people can choose between the new design and the old design....

    I don't like the new design.
    There are to many lines, the underlining of the links is annoying, and the visited links have the same color as the not visited links.

    Sorry, I liked it better yesterday.

    I agree with Frans... the lines are kind of annyoing, and it screwed up my M again... though it's still much better than the yellow styleset... the topbar looks nicer now... though the other world had something special.. this one here is just America centered., so it's the US way to look at things, to europeans the normal worldmap shows europe and America (africa is on it too), but the last one had Africa centered... I liked it... something different than always this America/Europe domination...

    i love this design. yesterday's one looked a bit too plain for me, and both the old ones were crap.

    Remember there's always the Gold style set too. Karl deleted the original one that he created and VB-Square and VB-World, so short of recreating them there's no way to bring them back.

    first of all the yellow thingie is worse than this design, second why not just search archive.org and copy the old design from there?

    I think it's nice... (the gold set, I much preferred the VBSquare style anyway )

    well you already have the style. What I mean is that modify the COLORS in the gold style and just change the yellow to the old color, that's not really hard I guess. That way it looks like the old color cheme and it's also similar to the old style...

    The table colors are identical to VB Square before. Lemme repeat myself: if you want me to change the colors of the top title then give me two hex codes and I'll do it.

    Right.
    But most people really dislike you.

    You are also helping to setup the site that you used hate.
    And the logic behind that is ?

    The word "to" is implied between the words "used" and "hate"
