That's the problem, it does take real talent to create real piccies in such a space.

Someone call Defra, there's an outbreak of Foot in Mouth disease in Wiltshire

I quite like the single stripes (actually I quite like the double stripes as well, but it seems to awaken dark feelings in some members ); I don't like the one with yellow in, but I'm not fussy as long as they stay green. I like arrows in general...a small pic or other random pattern can be a bit distracting.

It's going to be very difficult to get 10 versions of a realistic beany thing (yup, there are 10 different versions of the arrows) so what do we do?

While regarding myself very much as an 'incomer', I don't want to be prescriptive...
But...
I thought the previous 'topic list' icons, being rounded, 'soft' and looking hand-drawn, natural and thus 'organic', were actually rather more appropriate for *this* site than things using straight lines, right angles and precise 45º slopes - which aside from military insignia, are redolent of industrialisation, manufacture, rigid formality, etc....
Did I miss the point/benefit of the change?


I've got no particular axe to grind wrt the headers
But... !!!
- I'm pleased "Latest Posts" seems to work the same as the previous "New posts since last visit" - seems just tighter phrasing.
- Those buttons seem to be centred - while the top-logo isn't! This might be a Mac (OS9) artefact, or something to do with my screen/window size, or a goof, or even intentional. (Is this associated with a change to a 'shaded' backround?)
- And I think it might look better (softer, friendlier) without the square borders on the buttons... just the graphic 'floating' on the beige would IMHO be nicer... (and I might seperate them a little more from each other, while closing up icon to text)

There does seem to be a lot of empty (wasted or graphically important?) screen 'real estate' in the top corners, could this be better employed by sliding the "left column" up to the top of the screen? (I've no idea how much flexibility your tools allow - so feel free to ignore!)
