Hey all,

Just wanted to say I think this new blue theme is a nice change. In some spots it is a bit much (i.e. the options right above typing this are somewhat hard to see now). One of the first things that came to mind was the Eiffel 65 song Blue though. lol

I'm not that crazy about the blue - have you looked at the new post page - why a blue left bar? The bold blue background on the buttons is quite distracting.

Gradients and flashing text was fun for about a minute. All the bold colour will become tired very quickly. There are so many examples of clean, simple forums - those are what should be copied.

More important is a proper method of including an image in a post.

My two Canadian cents (worth 1.5 cents U.S.)...

I like the new color scheme and add a second to Francis' note about images.

It would be really great if IBI Tech Support had sort options for results such as by Date and Relevance. Woulda thunk that there would have been an NFR submitted years ago for that sort function.

Also, welcome any thoughts on the NCAA's given this coming weekend, but that's another discussion.

FOCUS Nation - Rock on!
