I like 'em, right now. They're unobtrusive, which they should be, but they stand out clearly from the background. And they're not the boring stars anymore!

If you want my opinion, the Chaos symbols don't bother me at all. What I think is not good is the new colored 'new' button, white on yellow background doens't stand out at all and to be honest, they look very boring (just my 2 cents)

I want everyone's opinion, Gal You're the first person to actually notice the new 'New' button, in fact. I assumed everyone thought that was OK, as there were no comments...

Well, I noticed it, but it didn't bother me too much (not that I disagree with the Elven queen though...) - my problem with it always was that it is rather small and requires good targeting...

I noticed, thought cool, and just carried on as normal, as it wasn't any harder to see or click on.

I knew they were CC Symbols ^_^
Though if we're giving opinions; then the theme is ugly. It doesn't match. It's all wrong.
Colour changes are needed, or at least an option for a change. (imo)

Hmmm... Colour change time... That sounds like a plan. I always get bored with the scheme sooner or later...
Anyone else agree with Cat?
Also - a bigger 'new' button - good idea or bad? It's certainly doable if you guys want that...

They're harder to pick out, since they blend with the background, which makes it harder to get an overview of which threads have new posts in them. Anyone else agree with Cat? Well, I didn't like it when it was new either. And it's still half teal... Übereil

I thought my internet was broken and not loading the "new" image properly. ;D I do think we need one that stands out more (right now, the way it blends, its little more than an indent). Hmmm... Colour change time... That sounds like a plan. I always get bored with the scheme sooner or later... Dun forget, we have the results from that theme contest from before to pick from. Killerzzz

I have re-sized the New button, which should solve the problems of it being too small and not very easy to find. I'll re-colour it if the new design clashes ...

HOLY... What is with the background?! ;; It... isn't too bad but now I can't even read the rest of the text about which forum or thread I'm looking at.

The new background is annoying.

OK, I'm done for now (Including removal of 'annoying background' ;D).
Let the screaming begin (Or should that be continue...? ;D)

Bring up a more fitting background and I can live with this theme. The new button suffers from having being enlarged though. Make a bigger button from scratch if you want a bigger button, otherwise stick to the old button and just give it a good mix of color that partly looks nice and partly stands out enough from the background.

I consider Elliot's current efforts a miscarriage of creativity.

The new New button is basically a size test, Ube. If everyone thinks that's a good size, I'll make a proper button.

I never knew that 'New' was a button. I thought it was just a little icon to indicate threads where someone had posted since the last time I read the thread.
It's hideous now.
As for the rest - why is it getting more and more flowery? This looks like a forum whose target is 8 year old girls.

I had the same problem with the 'new' button, it was mostly to small to aim and then you have to go back and try again cuz we don't wanna see the first page again lol. The white background is way to flashy with everything else. Can't you put up a darker (plain colored!!) background that is more soothing for the eyes? This colorscheme gives me a headache

'Darker background needed!' seems pretty common, so... coming up.
