I have just one complaint, that there are no sharks with freakin laser beams. What a disappointment that is! I mean how hard is it to get sharks with laser beams. Someone really dropped the ball here.

Way to bright. It will take awhile for me to adjust to it.

First, I do appreciate that moving the Wrong Planet was hard work - many thanks to all those who made it happen.

Now, after that disclaimer, I kind-of miss the alternating blue & green posts. The pattern delineated each post....the white seems to all run together and there is almost too much space between. I think I'd prefer coloured post fields, and, like others have stated, bright white can hard to read from. Blue & green was distinctive too.

I guess I'll get used to it though......

*hangs head* I didn't think it was that easy of a request to be overlooked. I mean I could understand forcing people to lower the brightness of their monitors as part of an evil plan to overtake the world, but I always thought sharks with lasers were a staple to any evil overlord's plans. *sigh*. I will just have to wait till the aliens come I guess, I'm sure they won't forget the Sharks with lasers. :wink:

I like it but I think there needs to be more contrast between the light blue and white, apart from that it's fine. I really like that I know which threads I've posted in.

The design is ok, I suppose, but as others have pointed out, there is far too much space and it takes a lot of scrolling.
The overview goes.
It is easier to miss things....and like a couple of others, I miss the opening page.
The new WP looks very impersonal
I think, modernizing the old page just slightly would have been better.

It reminds me a bit of answerbag when they had the change in December of 2009. I also don't like it so much because of the brightness.
