Is there any way we can get more colors, @OakleyBoss? I am not liking these blue hues. How about some black?

Nope.

Will see what I can do - but may be a longer term initiative since would essentially have to be a new design, tested etc.

Wow. And I thought it was merely adding a color to the existing themes.

Hopefully this is a feasible idea!

I like this new layout! Having it go dark is a cool option, gives it a different feel. And I second @QLR1 about the colors! That would be a neat option for the future!

@OakleyBoss : So far so good with this new design. And we will extend our sponsorship to Oakley Forum so that Oakley enthusiasts here can enjoy the forum. Thanks.

Hey Boss, a suggestion for your consideration...

The scrolling banner is nice; let's me access / move on to my next alert without having to scroll back to the top of the page...

But sometimes I'm going through "watched threads", and for that I still need to scroll up. The "Forums - News - Feedback" etc pulldowns are part of the banner; could the sub-items i.e. "Watched threads - New Posts" etc be part of them, too?

I know many people use the "New Posts" as their primary way of checking content so I think it'd be useful to a lot of us.

EDIT - I notice when I hover over "News" in the banner I see those two items in the pulldown; threw me because "Forums" doesn't have a pulldown... Does that work for mobile users who can't hover?

Yeah most of those are currently under the News dropdown - on Mobile, these will appear as well when you click "news" with a defined menu. No reason/way to hover on mobile.

Doing some work and addressing bugs with the new design - therefore I reverted back to the old design in the interim. No reason for alarm! Will keep you all posted!
