What do you think about Specktra's new look?

[amenonine]

I like the new layout. Its more modern and more sleek.. Plus the colors are a lot more comfortable to look at than the old version.

Though the problems I have with this new look is that its so wide! maybe at 80% would be more comfortable to look at?

Also, I can't tell if I've visited a link or not. in the old layout, visited links would change colors, but this one--I don't think it does. I think its just me, because I like to look at a lot of the things that go around here (especially the FOTD's and Tutorials), but I always end up clicking the same link twice thinking that i haven't seen it before.

Though I voted on the last option, I wouldn't say I really do hate it.

My gripes:
- The stripe pattern is distracting and makes text a little more difficult to decipher.
- Generally too much going on with the designs, like someone couldn't decide what they wanted to add so they added everything.
- No difference in link colours. That is, with the old layout, by looking at the colour of the link (to whatever FOTD, etc) I could whether or not I viewed it before. Now the links are the same colour, regardless of whether I visited it or not.

I guess I'm just so used to the old layout and was much more comfortable then than now.

I like it. the interface is much cleaner therefore I find it easier to work with. I prefer the simpler colours. Not totally sold on the width, I might have to change to fixed width, but I'm gonna give this a go first. I love the front page with all the current info.

You basically explained everything I didn't like. I didn't feel like putting it into words though lol. Also, I don't really like the front page. I like being able to go straight to the forums.

I was a bit unsure about the new layout at first but nowI think it's beautiful and I really like it

It looks very nice, but at the same time it feels overwhelming. I think if it wasn't so wide it would have a more manageable/easily navigable feel.

Haven't really had a time to look, but it seems cute so far.
Keep up the good work.

i prefer the old look.

this one is very busy with all of the colours and stripes and images. i don't like the ads at all on the first post of every thread. i could handle the bar ads above the forums but not on posts.

just don't like it, sorry.

i must admit, i definitely liked the old look better. im kind of confused at how to get around with this one, and its so stretched out! :/
