Suggestion How About We Loose The Gradient and Go Pastel?

    Hello

    I think its time this forum lost the "gradient effect" and also changed the GREEN to a more Pastel or nice green,

    You know what I mean designers,

    OR MAYBE some designers here would paste a mock up......

    I think the green is cool, its just like my grandmas refrigerator green or a 1980s movie green

    Do it for the love of GREEN

    I don't know why but this particular green reminds me of the older dollar bills:

    I'd say keep it.

    Shawn is of Irish descent (well he is for the purpose of this post) so green it must stay. You know what they say about the luck of The Irish!;)

    I agree with you. You are right. Nice green will be awesome. But also I have a different idea. If forum starts a design contest for its own design then I think we will get some excellent design idea to choose.

    This falls under the "what's the point"-concept. This isn't a design-page, where everything rests on how the public receives the name / site / brand. DP is a reliable source, and as long as the design _works_, there is no point in changing it, especially for some small things like changing colors and removing gradients. It takes a bit of time getting it right, and I'm pretty sure that is NOT on the top-10 todos here. It's pointless.

    If you don't like the looks of the site, run your own CSS. It's that simple.
