Eyes Bleeding (Deja Vu, huh?)

[xShadowLordx]

Those of you who remember the atrocious red buttons I made for the forum way back in 2008 will remember this thread title. ;D

Well, it's happened again. Long story short, the new skin makes my eyes bleed. It's atrocious. Me and several other members complained about it before the change, and we're still complaining after.

I understand that there are some of you who like the new skin, which I have no problem with. I am not asking for this skin to be removed, but I would really appreciate it if we could at least bring back the V2 skin back as one of the choices. That way everybody will be happy.

That is all.

EDIT: What the heck?? This skin won't even let me have custom stars?? Ok, now I'm really mad.

I also notice that the buttons to add UBBC tags when typing a post are the default ones. I mean, come on, if we're going to have a custom skin, at least make all of the buttons.

Apparently the code is simpler, so Veers likes it better. IE it's not going anywhere ¬_¬

Welcome back btw.

The V2 skin was way too complicated in terms of coding. The General specifically stated what was wrong with it and why it is not coming back.

[kuraikiba]

Yes, unfortunately, though... There is no possibility of V2. They changed the whole layout, not just the skin. So now, we won't get the chance to have it as a choice, as that would require a layout change.

IE They broke it.

danballforum.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=announcesite&action=display&thread=2698&page=2 Read the General's post.

To be fair, the code is still stored in the old forum.

[GloveParty]

Yeah, a good bunch of us are quite unhappy with it- although I see they've fixed the miniprofile- but they're too convinced of its superiority to bring it back despite the unhappiness.

[Qwerty]

They've already seen how unhappy you are with it. Veers explained why they aren't going back: It was a coding catastrophe (meow!).

How is it possible that a slightly different Forum Skin can make someone's eyes bleed? 0_o

[GloveParty]

Well, at least make a v4... please. I'd mak a skin but I hve both no coding knowledge and no graphic design knowledge.

I've begun work on V4, progress can be viewed at monokr0me.proboards.com/index.cgi .
