    Default New Forum Art + Menu

    I like the new Forum art + menu for the different sites on the top. I prefer this more than a drop-down menu; especially on a mobile.

    I'm a bit confused though with the sunglasses that are on the ''R''; is it to represent ''viewers'' or simply a props to Dobber's avatar that is sporting a pair himself?

    I like the new art too. I didn't mind the drop-down menu, but this works well and has a nice look to it.

    I'm looking forward to see the sites upgrade too.

    I'm a fan of the new look, and it doesn't take away from functionality, which is nice.

    I love the new colours.
    Oh - the grey... I can't tell you how much I loathed the ol' grey.
    I actually would avoid anything (esp. Frozen Pools) that was boring black font on a grey background.
    Yugg.

    The look is so much cleaner, crisper now.
    As an engineer, I'm supposed to be all about function - but good mercy, I do like my eye candy.

    The sunglasses, meh... it's Dobber's staple... I don't mind seeing it twice.
    I think it's up there because we all such casual folk - sittin' at the beach, bloggin' about fantasy hockey...

    Like the quick links at the top but can we make them open in new windows/tabs please (target="_blank")

    The CapFriendly link is awesome too, will use that a lot for sure.

    Thank you!

    The added shades are just pushing the brand

    It's such a habit of mine to just push the middle wheel on my mouse every time I want a new tab. I never rely on websites to tell me which window to open. So I guess I just never thought of it. When I browse, if I want same window I just click (and get disappointed if it's new window). But if I want new window I click the wheel. My choice, every time.

    I only suggest it because the average internet user does not know of or use keyboard/mouse short cuts such as the wheel button or ctrl + click for a new tab/window/

    I could be typing out a long forum post and then want to know what someones AAV is for example, oh hey there's a link at the top click, bam my whole post is gone.

    Just a suggestion

    It is a lot crisper than it was. It does look different on my iPad than on my laptop, so I'm thinking its viewing the mobile site? I'd love a link to open full site. (Or chrome just displays a lot different than I.e.).
