It's far far too busy - there's some nice touches, but the screen is so busy and cluttered with boxes and shadows that it makes my eyes bleed.

I gotta say 2 things:

  1. The Xenforo post was up for weeks if not months for you to say what you think about the design. nobody said anything about boxes within boxes.
  2. I agree with the boxes within boxes, but mainly because of the user box, everything outside of the threads look clean (to a degree), but yes threads are too boxy:
    1. drop the drop shadow,
    2. stretch image width of container
    3. and to 0px of bottom border
    4. remove all margins of the user and comment boxes to look a bit cleaner
    5. have the buttons "Report", "Trust", "+Quote" and "Reply" the same margin distance on bottom as the sides.
  3. Buttons on the bottom don't seem to have common margins:
Can I get a like for that? No? aww



Completely agree on the shadows on everything.


The reply box being black is also weird.

And the highlighting of the buttons for 'Bold' 'image insert', I guess it's supposed to be a blue highlight when the mouse pointer goes over them, but it looks almost colour inverted.

How else can I reduce the premium? I’ve said 3000 miles a year, parking it on my drive…. There’s a million options for additional security and whats all this about Data tagging? Does it make a difference or rather justify cos

A post I previously made has come out like this......

Also I cant stand these new forums.... Why break something that isn't broken.. Absolutely AWFUL layout, cheap and tacky ... Meh.

How and where do I see threads I've posted or commented on?

any way to remove the slightly brighter blue lines? makes my eyes go all woozy lol :(

Got to admit, the JPEG artifacting doesn't help. But looking with Photoshop there is actually a different colour there., it's a 1 pixel wide change either side of the black post border. I can't actually find any reference to that colour in any of the StyleSheets however. I'm not sure what is generating it!
