Is it me or is that bit at the top green now ???

colditz · 15/12/2006 13:52

can't see the writing at the top properly - it's not seperated enough, and it's a manky colour.

turquoise on eyeshadow = good.

turquoise on computer screen = bad.

Now if we could just lose the black lines round the boxes with the poster's name on, we'd almost be back to where we started, which is where we want to be . On the threads of course, still some work to do on Active convos....

Me too xxx

WigWamBam · 15/12/2006 13:47

Yep, I'm off again too, this is making my head ache again. I never thought I'd see the day I'd turn MN off to do housework ...

turquoise active convos - nein danke, royal blue is just fine.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 15/12/2006 13:43

oh i am logging off - its hurting my eyes....

WigWamBam · 15/12/2006 13:42

My poor old eyes are really protesting about the cramped up mess at the top of the screen ... it's really hard to work out which link I'm clicking on. Of course that might just be my knackered old eyes, but I doubt it.

foxtrottothefestivegrotto · 15/12/2006 13:40

Lose the black bullet points please - unnecessary clutter.

ProfessorGrammaticus · 15/12/2006 13:40

And please GET THE FLASHING ADVERTS OFF the side of the page

tissy · 15/12/2006 13:37

getting a bit better

foxtrottothefestivegrotto · 15/12/2006 13:37

colour is better, now please spread out the active convos etc menu bars.

MamaG · 15/12/2006 13:36

I HATE IT!

ProfessorGrammaticus · 15/12/2006 13:35

I don't like it. The bits at the top of the page are too small and it all looks cramped - sorry HQ

tweetyfish · 15/12/2006 13:35

I liked it better before, when the bar down the left had gone....

Quite right VVVQV..

Does anybody remember Stop It and Tidy Up?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 15/12/2006 13:34

The bullet points in "threads im on" is confusing to look at.

There isnt enough contrast to define what you are looking at.

twinklemummy · 15/12/2006 13:32

the lettering is too small colours too pale

VeniVidiVickiQV · 15/12/2006 13:31

The spacing is wrong too - things need centreing in the messages and the toolbars and options etc. Vertically and horizontally.

MascaraOHara · 15/12/2006 13:29

I think it's ok now, it just needs tidying up so it doesn't look so sloppy.

DingdongMegaLegsonhigh · 15/12/2006 13:28

I reckon there all wearing crowns out of crackers, drinking sherry sitting 'round a monitor egging tech on.

foxtrottothefestivegrotto · 15/12/2006 13:28

active convos is fading away, at this rate my screen will be blank except for the adverts!

DarrellRivers · 15/12/2006 13:28

I'll add my tuppence as well,
popped in earlier in between appointments and was so bewildered left agin, so big thumbs down, didn't have time, couldn't be arsed to find anything
seems to be little more user friendly now

SchneeBallFight · 15/12/2006 13:28

I feel sorry for Justine et al - must be a bit demoralising trying to imrpove things when it causes a tantrum every time. No offence to anyone but I dont undertsand why you are all so outraged!
