Hey! What Happened?

XColibur, huh? I miss Dystopia. I liked the ugly sidebar! That little script thing up at the top of the page that replaces the sidebar is awfully touchy, especially when you have a crappy mouse, as I do. OK, it does look a lot cleaner this way, but it's going to take a lot of getting used to.

My user icon says "ouch!" It's awfully cramped up there in that corner. I guess I'll look at those options they mentioned on the log-in page. See if they've got something better.

Don't you wish that some of the effort taken to create this style had been spent making the site more reliable? I do.

hmmm I dunno, I've been using XColibur for a long time and really like it... it's a LOT cleaner. the nice creative people that have been working on the style probably aren't the same people working on reliability, so I don't think we've really lost anything as long as you can switch back.

of course, my opinion is tainted because I like it. =)

Well, exactly. This skin wasan't a long time-consuming process, they had it up for a long time on the test page, they just decided to slap it on the main page. Couldn't have taken more than a few hours of work.

I like the clean style, but those blue links on the user info page make my eyes go out of focus. I'm sure I can get used to the script that replaced all the side bar links, but I'll need a new mouse before it will be as easy to use as the old style.
