Found it, thanks for quick reply

so are they trying to become like facebook or something? Why the changes? It was working fine the way it was. Everything doesn't have to be changed and updated just to keep up with the times. Sometimes it's better to leave things just the way they are.

Flags are similar

Just click on the white flag

Just in time for the discussion on Syria.

I am assuming I'll get used to this because I've always found SO to have excellent design/graphics abilities but, so far...ugh!

WOW!
Thanks ATS for giving me my life back. I can suddenly see myself spending MUCH less time here now.
Not sure if Disney or Teletubies has a forum, but I bet it looks similar to this.

I'm really sorry, but I fail to see how such a childish looking theme fits in with a site full of mostly intelligent adults that talk about everything BUT childish topics.

Disgusted and seriously upset with this change!

I was a little concerned when the burning pure photon white background came up, but then I found the little half moon in the corner and I was...

I don't see any 'TOP' button at the bottom of a page.

Not liking it.

Cant comment on the functionality yet as not had too much time to play around. The new look is awful. It's like a childrens website. The thread topics just dont stand out like they used to. I hope it changes soon. Really bad on my netbook.

I appreciate the work that has gone into this but it just doesnt look appealing at all. A bit more colour would be good....really drab looking. The white look is just plain awful. Black is better but looking through threads is not as easy.

Also I agree with those of you who are going to miss the animated smileys. I suppose there's no way we're getting that back?

What about using animated gifs in posts?

THIS is a test, this is only a test....

Other than the White background business, it is rather clean and somewhat refreshing. The charcoal gray that's popping up now makes that apparent and appreciated. Can we kill the white?

You can use larger file gifs now. Many before were to large to upload to the old ats...So thats good!

Very VERY good point you make there...

Gonna have to think on that one.

Anyone figure out what the trophy and the lightning bolts mean below the avatars?

Do we now have the option of calling down lightning on all those trolls instead of using the alert function?
