Thinking about a new look for RFF

Personally, I think that RFF the way it is looks classier/better. I prefer the white on dark grey as opposed to the blue on whatever that is. It's easier on my eyes. Is a user selectable colour scheme possible? That way you could have both.
 
I like the current look and don't think the two samples you provide look any better. Seems very Apple like. I also appreciate the white on black look. Works better for the many black and white photos we share in posts.
 
At first I had trouble with the color scheme. It's growing on me.

To my eyes, the WoodenBoat Forum has the best look and feel of any I spend time on. However, the new version isn't as nice as the old version.

WoodenBoat Forum

Just my tuppence worth.
 
I have always liked how easy on the eyes RFF is. I don't like the bright, high contrast look of most other forums.

No changes. User selectable would be cool, but no changes otherwise.

This place is the electronic form of home to many people. Changes would be a bad thing.

If something is working OK, why to change it?
The way RFF is now is OK for my preferences/taste. It (IMHO) is easier to look at than some other sites (not all of them on photography).

Just my sixpence contribution.

I know the feeling. I can never leave anything alone. Nothing is ever good enough.

Let me tell you, RFF is good enough.

And then some.

You have something very rare here - and I fear its most powerful qualities are probably very delicate.
 
I'm new here so perhaps shouldn't speak but I like that look. The soft blue on white is a lot easier for my tired old eyes to deal with. Type on white is what I am most familiar with throughout my life and I find it a lot "softer" than the white on black/grey here.
 
I'll simply say that, as with previous experiments, what already is, is what works best.

Hi...
IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT.
RFf is great the way it is, well organized & easy on the eyes.
- Possible minor change: Upper left corner of RFF Home...

Main Menu
RangeFinderForum
Forums
Gallery
- Make the words RangeFinderForum, Forums & Gallery... a bit larger.
Cheers,
Mike

They both look the same now. White on grey. I have always prefered the look of RFF to other sites. 🙂

I seem to recall that when I first joined(or shortly after?) there was for a while a user selectable color scheme. I tried all the different ones and ended up back to the "classic" look I continue to enjoy.
I did finally get my monitor adjusted well(found settings in my computer's "control panel" that I didn't know I had :bang: these actualy make a difference, unlike the hardware controls on the monitor itself) and I can now see the graphic behind the main banner. Very nice! 😱

I like the current format. It is distinctive and classic (like a rangefinder). Maybe it’s because I’m an ‘old guy’, but I don’t care for the flashy web sites – they look childish to me. Subtle is good! 😎
