New Look?

[cpugeniusmv]

Okay, I'm sure most of you have seen UTC's new look. Quite frankly, I like it a lot! Props to them!

But now, on to the main reason for this post...

Do you think ZP should go for a new look? I've been in several discussions about this, and I thought I'd bring it to the forums!

What do you think?

No.

I fear change.

Why not, just don't make it too "flashy".

[isus]

yea, we need a new look. it's just... too bland.

php can do anything, and... its not doing much here.

but, we might hafta wait awhile, bc of the upgrades (i assume they are still tinkering with the servers bc everytime i 'search' for posts, all the views say 0...)

Why not? Zeropaid could use a fresh new look. Plus I know there are ways to streamline the interface in some cases, make things less confusing and more user-friendly. More options without being overwhelming as well.

there are some things on the front page that could use some revision (AKA the New Users Tutorial which has broken links)

A little flash is good as long as it is not at the expence of slowing down the webpages. I hate pages that takes forever to download or scroll down at a crawl jut becasue of some fancy animation going on.

it doesn't really matter in the long run.
it might be nice if the option was there to switch to another theme for those who wish for a change.
there r boards with about 4 or 5 themes to choose from, maybe more......i haven't been to them all...lol.
but would that take up too much space?
or slow things down too much as wolfie has said?

Anything is a very strong word.

As to the UTC thing, I think you may find that I'll be here less and less, while being there more and more. I've made friends with a lot of the old herd over at P2P Forums, and this site is becoming quite "n00bish". ZP has come under a lot of criticism, I have always defended it. However, I feel it has caught up with me in a way. I really like all of the regulars here, and I suggest you come and spend some time over at UTC.

I'll be spending less and less time on the net from now on anyway, so don't take this as an insult any of you!

I fear being disorintated with my screen reader, lol, I'd hate to see zp change, that means I'd have to change!

i didn't notice it at first glance, but UTC is doing the multiple theme thing.

yeah, and i like the mainframe one.
some people hate a black background but i like it.
the colors just look so much purdier.

Flash this site and I WILL fucking leave. You should see my emails to tvguide.com.

Going for a new look is cool, going for a new look because someone else did it, not cool.

[Sockfulloflove]

the plain look doesn't bother me.
