    I've just changed my colour scheme back to the original (classic style) - bottom left hand corner. I found the colours too harsh. Having the option is excellent

    I haven't seen the new colours, having already had my profile set to "Classic".

    You can't please all the people, of course, but FWIW I think that the colour needs to be neutral enough to not drive away any newbies before they get to the point of registering and being able to change their profile.

    Same here, glad I was able to change it back. The muddy orange colour was too harsh on the eyes and like Kristen says, it might have put some people off (it did me!).

    I'm liking the new appearance! The banner at the top is so much more professional looking now, big thumbs up.

    Colours will change depending on what season we are in, plus as you have mentioned, you can always opt for clasic skin :thumb:

    Excellent job to give us the choice :gnthb:

    I like the new banner but the new colour hurts my poor old eyes :old:.

    I've gone back to 'Default' style as I prefer it to 'Classic'. :thmb:

    Every time I see that quote I think of Olivia de Havilland winning the Oscar for Best Actress in the film of the same name.

    Totally irrelevant to this topic - but my mind wanders :old: :hehe: :rotfl:
