Hi, I hate to say it but think it's worse. I find it a lot less obvious what the new posts are with this new colour scheme.

I know what you mean. Is it possible to increase the line spacing slightly?

If you are referring to just the posts then this can be changed from the default Verdana 11 size to Arial 12 size.

If you look at my OP, you'll see I used Arial 12 as I think it's a more clear font and legible size (this post, however, was done in Verdana 11).

Looking on the homepage of the forum, I believe the each section (geo request, geo chat, etc) are clear except for the 'Last Post' column which appear smaller than the old forum (from what I can remember).

Apart from that, I believe everything else is either the same or better.  I like the PM' pop-up box, storage box (making full use of that now), and more importingly email notification of a PM is working fine now whereas the old forum it appeared emails notifications of any PM's were not accurate.  I remember once getting 6 PM's about different subjects from mostly different people but only ever received 1 email about 1 of the PM's.

Overall I do believe it's better though.
