I think that the white background is much to stark and unfriendly. :-(http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/post?type=new&bk=27#

I totally agree. Perhaps GR could tint the background slightly.

Another address to send to is

theteam@genesreunited.com

which has been mentioned by Phil and Estelle on other threads as well as on the Beta testing email.

Opinions sent via any of the links are more likely to be counted than the numerous threads which have been started. You may get a standard response, but the comments sent that way are logged, and passed to the development team.

By the way - to those who appear to have made their first post on the Boards because of the changes, Welcome :-D

Researching:
I am NOT an employee of GR, just a paying member. Any advice, guidance or suggestions offered is given in good faith.

I like the new (mark 2) layout. It seems clearer and easy to use.

Have a look at any thread that has been ticked as answered.
I much prefer the colours of the ticked post.

Why can't they just darken the green a bit, as in all the little boxes "Send Message", "Add Reply" etc.

I have sent feedback, which has been "taken on board".

I was sending feed back re the colour scheme during the beta testing.


I have just sent another email to "theteam" re the glaring, far too pale back ground colour.


My eyesight is far too precious to damage it by being on this site.
