I understand the reasons behind the upgrade, but I really hope that you will "tweak" this appearance a lot. I hope I don't hurt anyones feelings here, but this is just ugly; the color selections (I mean *brown*!!?), the font size selections (inconsistent at some places), the mix of serif and sans serif fonts (does not work well IMO, choose sans serif (works very good for on-screen reading) and be consistent about that all the way), the font alignment selections in some places (centered instead of aligned left), etc.

I also tried to search for "A1 lite", but that was not possible, since both the words "A1" and "lite" has less than 5 characters. I tried to write "Amiga" instead, but guess how many hits I got? ;-)

Also, when I click on a topic in the "Recent Topics" list, I'd like to begin reading at the top of the page with the first post/comment.
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

I can't see the problem. Open photoshop, load the few gifs that you used in the header, join them in a big GIF and put it in the header.


Or simply take a screenshot of it from a browser window and base it upon that (since it's all graphic anyway) ...

I'm not saying that the old one was the ultimate choice (especially not since the webmasters at "anotherworld.net" has let themselves be "inspired" by the old amiga.org color scheme and layout), but it's definitely preferrable over the current one.

Something light and fresh would be nice. Without any brown colors and the black border. I'll see if I can come up with a suggestion myself, if I get the time later on ...
