It looks fine in all browsers to me. It's text, not graphics, so the rendering is up to your system. Do you maybe not have font smoothing enabled on your system?

User CP --> Settings & Options --> Edit Options --> aaallllll the way down to the bottom, choose 'Forum Skin: not so white BornDirty'.

I like. :)

Or, you could just use the drop-down menu in the bottom-left corner of every page. ;)

I did that at first but the site didn't save the setting, so I had to change it again on the next login. Until I found out where to change it permanently on the User Control Page.

We did consider this, but its more important for us if visitors stayed here, on this site, and not be distracted but other social interaction that is nothing to do with us - so the compromise was at the footer, with the other external links.

Yeah, these are just placeholders, they will be replaced during the next resfresh.

hmm well I'm looking at it on the Mac at work and it does look fine here, but not at home on my windows 7 machine. I'll check my settings at home (though I never noticed any problems with aliased fonts before).

The new site is great.

Please let the brown be gone for good. This is much more refreshing and from a design perspective nobody keeps the same look for ten years.

poo on that idea. i mean, i love the new site, it's great, refreshing and whatnot. but eventually it would be nice to have the brown back again, or to be able to switch between the two. it's like going into a warm log cabin with a bunch of friends (and hot chocolate!) vs. going out clubbing with a bunch of friends at this awesome new club. yeah, the club is cool, and i'd never give up the club for the log cabin, but i wouldn't give up the log cabin for the club either. see what i mean?

I think you're saying that the log cabin is made of brown wood and hot chocolate.

i love the analogy. but, I prefer the new artsy look. it's very spot on with the new release and change is always good. the log cabin is a nice place to visit, but i wouldn't want to live there! ;)

New design looks good and all. I like it, and I don't miss the brown, but black on white is really tough on the eyes as so many others have said. Any good designer should now that it hurts to read black on pure white after a while, and messageboards are mostly for reading. Please consider changing white for at least light gray. Listen to the people! Other that that. Great work guys!

If you want light gray, go to the bottom-left corner of any screen, and change the drop-down style to "not so white BornDirty". If you want that change to be permanent, you can change it in your UserCP, under Options, I think.
