I would love an option to have borders and to change the colour of text and back ground, I suffer from a specific condition that makes it so i find it incredible hard to tell apart certain colours, can you guess which they are.

The rest of the site is fine but the forums are just crazy for me now. Its alot worse when people have quotes as there signature or a wall of text unlike mine which you can tell is a sig or the normal lightsabers but even sometimes they look like they are part of the persons post.

Yeah... the new look lacks defining areas, as mentioned above it is hard to immediately read though with anything you do adjust but that's is bad design.
When someone views an information site they should immediately be able to see one area/section from the next without having to draw imaginary lines in their heads.

All in all it looks and feels cheap and nasty.
Something you would expect from a design grad student not from a multi million dollar online game.

I dont mind the look of the forums. I haven't spent much time on the website since they were redone. I will say that the reply option they give you to threads makes it seem like they are simply useing a revamped version of a guild launch website instead of coming up with their own. I guess I'm too used to the wow forums.

I'm already detecting the twinges of strain as a result and have begun copying posts into Notepad before reading them, as well as authoring my own posts within that program and pasting them into the reply interface, in an attempt to alleviate this.
Same here. Except it makes my vision dark (especially with the text), too. Probably of the strange mix of colors.

Apparently you dont understand the concept of "resources". If you have on your payroll webdesigners sitting around doing nothing, so you just create a meaningless task just to keep them busy, then you are already doing something wrong.

rather like the new look. It is different from other game forums. It also appears to be more user friendly which is nice for any new to MMO players we get.
