Yes, they do need to fix stuff but don't forget that it's brand new so let's give them few days to improve. They've also delinked the names which is great.
The forums are my grandma the background looks like I took a shit and smeared it across her face Looks grey as fuck like my grandmas hair Spaced out like my grandmas teeth The only thing I like is the quote bar that looks 2 hairy dicks my grandma held last night And the number of post that look like they gave birth to a Mexican family and woke up drunk in a barn the next morning The edit post is missing like my grandmas period And the submit is far the the right with her right boob sagging from the top to bottom of the screen... In nice words
A tick is something some people can have Sometimes with the eyes arm head body It depends on the person A tic tac is a type of breath mint
I like it if I do an overall thing.. But I don't like the greyish cacky background.. I think that should be white again (like the post bubble and thread names). Also, I agree with kaname, the thread names need to be bigger (I think he said that). I also don't like the edit post thing, and think that instead it should be for the OP of a thread and be there forever. So they can change the message without needing supports help.
I like it too. It seems to run more smoothly than the old version of forums. I don't mind the design; I like the new icons and I think most of the different colors will look better with this background. The only issue I've encountered, is it takes a while before you've sent your entry, thinking you haven't, when you actually have. But as it's been pointed out, this is new and hopefully fixed.
