~Amy~ · #1 (**permalink**) 10-05-2005

As you know we love our members here at SBB! We want your input and "trouble shooting". I know many of you love the new site and I am aware of a lot of things I have to work on and fix today; but please let us know if you find anything EXTREMELY QUIRKY! thanks!

Include also right down to new sections you want added; colors in the forums/gallery that at the moment maybe are "bothersome" when viewing.. that type of thing! thanks! Even font face.... right now for example it's verdana... would you all prefer arial... etc. THANKS AGAIN!!!

Amy - you are awesome. I cannot believe how much you have done. I totally love the new color scheme.

I love the look of the forums too ... but maybe it's just me ... it seems that the text lines are really close together? Or, maybe it's just that the font is different than before ... I don't know, but it's just a little hard for me to read from one line to the next.

Then again, I've worn glasses since I was 4 - think my eyesight has something to do with it? ROTF!

I love the new look, but it seems there are so many boxes around things now. It's a little distracting, maybe if the lines around the areas were lighter. The font doesn't bother me as much, but the boxes are a little much. This morning they weren't as noticeable, if they were even there, so it may be something you're still working on. Thanks for asking for our input!

** Well after I posted this the boxes were gone, so it may have been something on my computer! Sorry Amy!!

Thanks for asking. One time today when I viewed the gallery, it was all on a white background. Now it's different so I can tell you're still experimenting. When it was all white, the layouts weren't *boxed up* enough for me. It helps my eye focus on individual layouts more when each one is in a box, whether just a background color change or actual fine-lined box outline. Hope this makes sense. Thanks for all your work.

lol. Just saw the post previous to mine saying there were too many boxes. And I was saying I NEED boxes. Please know that I will be a faithful fan no matter what!

Amy, way to go....... I love the new site design, and I love the font. The gallery is a little different, without the boxes around each member. It's not a complaint, just a refreshing change.

The colours are cool....... easy on the eyes. I find the whole site easy on the eyes now...

Great job, an kudos to you for ALL this hard work!! You deserve many pats on the back,
Let me be the first to (((pat)))

Looks great, I love the new softer colors! Great job Amy, thank you! So far I have no complaints, everything seems the same or improved!

This is SO exciting - every time I visit the site today, there's something different! I love it! I'm seeing lots of green & peach now and I absolutely LOVE it! And this font is much easier for me.

I'm now noticing that the forums page doesn't have each new thread divided like it did this morning - for me, it's actually easier to have the theads differentiated in someway - either by a thin line between them, or more space between them, or maybe have varying shades of boxes around each thread (LOL - I saw the box posts above too!)

But you know what? I'll get used to whatever format you decide on. This site just looks FABULOUS.
