Help with new format!

Yea... I know. I'm cheating here... but it turns out, more people come to welcome new people than ever read my announcements - so I figured I'd post here.

We're working on changing the look of the forum, and I need your help!

Please go to the bottom of your screen, and down there you will see a little drop down box. Choose Blue Pearl and let me know what you think!

We will leave the other format also, so people will be able to swap back and forth, but we are thinking of making the blue pearl the default skin for the forum. Do you like? or no?

We still have to tweak it a bit... but you get the idea. Please take the poll, and post up your thoughts.

Seriously, it makes it really hard to stop in during work hours when it's that obvious.

It's very very very blue. When I see it, I cannot stop thinking of that one girl in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory. And the original movie was very disturbing. New one isn't too bad but that first one, that was very....off?

I agree, although our bosses may be happy about that.

I like it personally. Sorry about the guys & gals that have a hard time because of work, but maybe this would be a good thing. At least for their companies. Hey, it is a dive forum, it should be aquatic looking. Plus, I like the 3D. And, it is optional . . . . isn't it?

The only thing that bothers me is that it's hard to see the posting date & time.

Honestly, I like the default style best. Blue Perl looks to dark... or something... maybe with a different background for the text area it'd be ok.

Try a lighter, or less saturated, blue, perhaps? It's just overwhelmingly blue! Right now I have it set on something with a medium and a light blue, both sort of pastels, not neons, and white. I like it. Nothing has an extremely sharp contrast, it is easy onthe eyes.

Sorry, it feels a little rough on the eyes to me. But I'll go with whatever you guys decide! :-)
