Post by: daerid on Sun, 17 April 2011, 16:00:07

Ugh... is there any way to get back to the old theme? The new one is completely cluttered.

I love the light theme better.
Also, is the last "key" of the GH*logo smaller than the first one?

Just go to settings and change to 'light theme'

Good effort but it was pretty hard on the eyes... thanks!

Had to switch to the light version as well. The new theme is not that easy on the eyes. Hard to read stuff than before. :(

I took a nap and decided to check Geekhack when I woke up...I type in the name manually and when the page loaded I thought I was in the wrong place. I typed the URL again and went to the same place...confusion! I clicked on a bookmark and it took me here once more. Fresh out of sleep my confused mind didn't know what to make of it. I just sat there for a few seconds staring.

I'm never taking another nap again! Bad things happen when I do

I suggest the area where the user's avatar is also gets the translucent background as opposed to showing 100% of the page's background, then maybe making the blocks less transparent to show less of the background overall.

Is there a low-bandwidth/dial-up theme?

I won't complain, but this is very different. Also, some of my posts have been removed.
Did I break something?

It is keyboard related. I was quite startled by it. But it looks nice in its own way...

I hope it gets better soon. This theme sucks! I wish the theme upgrade had been coordinated along with the server upgrade (and we had been warned about the downtime beforehand).

The light theme is much better than the alternative but it fubared my sig :(

The actual default theme is quite nice, but I'd change the GeekHack logo.
