Okay, RE-POSTING here from other thread, and as a PS - I did go to try and change the link color and was really mad that ONLY the "visited link" color can be changed. My vote - go back to the original or allow total color changing...and if this was such a huge job to do on your servers, then that is ANOTHER reason to do a beta market research test first!! ___________________________ Frankly I am too busy to be aware of all the "coming changes" and was really caught off guard. I knew of the "new logo contest" but not being interested in it, I did not read about it. I suppose that is where there was more information on the huge change of the entire site? The format is changed and for some reason the words at the top, before I log in, are nearly jumbled over one another. Not a real professional look, and made it difficult to even find the link to log in! (FYI - staff, I run my monitor at 1280X960, but when I log in here the words straighten out and line up... which by the way, also righted themselves BEFORE I changed any of myu personal settings once I logged on...?!) Yes, we all will have to get used to it, as we did the change in the gallery formatting, but I AGREE with ShadowWind that there should have been some sort of beta to test! And I do not agree that people should have to write scripts or change their browsers just to accommodate Renderosity's site! I do not want to mess with my IE6 browser, write a code, etc... it works just fine with every other site on the web!! I changed the colors "back" and do not like it, it offends my artistic eye.... which of course is my own personal opinion. More importantly with black background and white text, (easier to read) the LINKS are now too dark to read, (SEE ABOVE PS) and that is something I think can only be changed by the web people here, right? Seems a simple enough change, but I see it is still dark. It is a fact in the business/marketing world, that for every person who actually writes there are many who feel the same but do not write, for whatever reason. Big companies take this very seriously in taking polls, providing toll free phone numbers on products, etc. Many of the "silent majority" just stop using the offensive product. Lyne
