Confuzzlement and new design

**Shizara** · 23-05-2006, 08:49 AM

Left the computer on last night as I do when home. Went to various webpages that have me logged in using cookies and found they had dropped.... sorted that or so I thought, then went to Warwickshire Online and thought I had gone to the wrong webpage until I looked again. - It might be just me but am struggling with the red and grass green combo
- Went to make a comment and hello cookie had dropped here too. I like the clean layout of the main part of this forum but wondered if the new "NO NEW POSTS" icon might be overguilding the lily so to speak.

Will, this is still a great place so nothing changed there. The blue is cool but the red and grass green combo strike a discord.

I rather like it, even if it does make me think of casinos.

Not sure about your cookie situation Shiz, it may be that the page loaded without refreshing, so you were looking at what had been cached on your computer. That would explain when you weren't logged in when you tried to post.

A good way round this is to check the 'Remember Me' box when you log in, that way you'll avoid that problem. If you do this already, you'd better let me know so I can look into it.

I'm going to try out the new look for a while, I know the rule 'Red and Green should never be seen', but I think the cream colour makes it work. We'll see how it goes. The forum status icons will probably be changed though, I've actually stolen them off one of my other websites, I just wanted to get the correct sizes in for now. Anything is better then those horrible ticks and crosses.

It is probably a matter of me getting accustomed to it.

**Shizara** · 23-05-2006, 10:28 PM

... and I will. Think it just caught me by surprise when I was fathoming out what happened to my cookies.

Have been away for a few days & what do I find on my return - a new look again!
Sorry Will but I don't like it - the new posts signs look like football shirts - but I'm sure it'll grow on me eventually

After the initial shock, the new design is growing on me. It can only get better!

**Shizara** · 06-06-2006, 09:35 AM

Guess what? After the initial shock I now like your new colours!!!!
