    This is a work in progress. In late July I have the option of returning it to what we had yesterday.

    I imagine this might be frustrating as fuck for you. Don't work too hard now. The proletariat stands behind you at the ready.

    This washed out theme has no character or personality. Get a purple and gold dark mode.

    Friday afternoon update:

    Finished

    • Tweaked the Rank label (golden football) so it's more centered on the username.
    • Adjusted padding on page so there is less empty space at the top
    • Adjusted padding between reaction buttons and post

     
    Could you send me the original image file for the Hardcore Husky logo and banners? The copies that Vanilla has saved are smaller than they should be. If I have the original copies, it won't be hard to make it look sharper. 
     
    Regarding the logo (top-left of the page), what size would you want that to be at? Also, is there another image you'd like to use there? When copying from the previous theme, it looked like you were just using another copy of the banner image. Personally, I think the size of the logo is fine, but replacing it with an actual logo image (an "HH" or just the mascot's head) may be the way to go. 
     
    Things I'm working On: 

    • Adjusting font size - make usernames larger than text in comments/discussions.
    • Removing circular frame on avatars
    • Post Count and Post Date Alignment - this looks to be a mobile specific issue related to the size of the rank label (golden football) 

    (He'll continue working on it on Monday)

    this needs some help but is progress. Of course everyone on here wants you to get off there lawn… change is hard.
    As self-appointed website superiority guy, this doesn’t blow.

    Product managers. Don't even know their own customers.

    could we? get "categories" at the top left be a pull down, as opposed to clicking through to a different page?

    This is worse than I ever thought it could be. Grey text on white background, just fantastic design!

    I have nothing but respect for Derek so I will try to be constructive in these troubling times.


    1. Moving through pages. I only seem to be able to move one page at a time. Before I could see 4-5 pages that I could click on.

    2. Posts vs Views. I used to use information that to know if it was a troll post. You know, like a Dan Reilly article (don’t care if his name is spelled incorrectly).

    Q - Will we need to click on each post so that the yellow numbers will show for new posts? That could suck balls.
