Look & feel of the forum

Admins, this new look and feel of the forum is very boring. The earlier one was very good and appealing.

What do others feel?

Thanks for your comment, but what exactly do you mean by saying its boring compared to the earlier look? In fact, the new look is based on the earlier look and in the standard style chooser, it is IDENTICAL!

Also, are you aware that different colour schemes can be chosen to view the board? On the bottom left of every page, you will see a drop down menu. That menu will offer you 5 different styles to surf Team-BHP in.

Finally, do keep in mind that we have intentionally stuck to a simple design so that the focus is more on the content than anything else.

P.S. Moved to the Shifting Gears forum.

Bingo. You said it. This is the ONLY SITE which i have seen is simple to understand. Others are two complex having too many slangs or emotions and some have too many signature.

THanx all the Moderators who make the site so wonderful for us.

P.S by default the Green colour comes which i cant tolerate so i stick to standard.
