A new scheme???

I know it takes alot of work to pull out a new color scheme and such for a website, but this site needs a refresher. Ever since I came here in Ocotber I believe, I've seen no minor changes, except for steering wheels next to the categories.

I'd like to see something vibrant, and different, and I'd like to see something almost abstract, as that would make us different then all the other plain old car sites out there.

I know it's a reach, But who agree's with me that we should at least give it a try and see how we do?

I completely disagree. Besides, it is not up to you.

The forum just went under extensive renovations a few months ago. Avatar layout, and posts were altered to a horizonal position which makes browsing easier.

I think many people enjoy the blues because its easy to look at, navigate, and it dosent give you a headache after 20 minutes.

So yes, I disagree

The current color scheme is good, shades of blue have been proved to be easy for the eye and good usabilitywise. Other than that I personally don't care what color are the web pages I read, it's the text between those colors that matters.

I found the last change difficult to adjust to but now it seems perfect; easy to read and with cool, easy on the eyes shades of Blue. Let's leave it be!

Yeah, I guess they changed the whole layout just before you came here but it seems like it was very recently that they went to the horizontal post layout. But I like the colors, never have had a problem with them so I say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Keep it.

allot of thought has gone into the last changes, with loads of tweaks people didnt even notice. I think it looks as sharp as it can be like this.

The whole layout was changes only a few months back. It took me some time to get used to it, but now I'm used to it and I would like it to stay like this... So I disagree...

I've gotten used to this layout and I wouldn't want a new layout. Why bother? It was completely overhauled not so long ago anyway. Keep it- end of discussion.
