Rhett Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 First off I will say I love 3.2 and cant' wait to use it... but the style does need a little love to make it better imo.... 3.1 had such nice rounded corners etc... now 3.2 has a mix of square and some round.. just doesn't fit imo. Anyway here are some shots after about 5 minutes playing with it, I will be doing this to all of my sites and I wish it was the default look as its' much more pleasing to the eyes.

TheRevTastic Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Can't say I like the look of rounded corners on this skin at all where you have added them. Plus you have to remember, rounded corners can make your site load slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.time Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I think the default skin needs to be uglier. If IPS made it just how everyone wants it then nobody would customize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divine Forces Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I like the way you've styled the sidebar headers, but I disagree on the tabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhett Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 So you guys really like the square edges? ok.... I guess I'm old fashion.... lol and I don't have to worry about my sites loading times.... they are all on proper dedicated servers. round corners crash browsers.. so its a big NO. Not real browsers they don't........ get with the times it's 2011 :wink: they work just fine with a good browser. They are also all over the place on 3.2.... but not as much as 3.1.

Tarun Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Personally I like the rounded tabs for the Forums, etc. at the top. Not sure about the darker sidebar. I mean, it's something I'd have to see and work with to get a feel for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 it makes sites loading slow ..eventually crash browsers on celeron processors. No. Rounded corners are done by CSS. What browsers does this supposedly crash and do you have any proof to back up these statements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your sites may be on a dedicated server but many people still use shared hosting for their forums and those people are probably also on a over sold server.

motowebmaster Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I don't agree that rounded corners, done only in CSS, will cause browser issues. However, I prefer to leave them out.Edgy looks better :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an issue in 2011 you can afford dedi server and new pc. Mostly 70% people have old pc and shared hosting. We spend such money on family rather than new PC to browse a forum.

We spend such money on family rather than new PC to browse a forum. Maybe they should save their $150 and $25 every six months for a new pc rather to build a forum their computer can barely browse? Now please get out of the year 2005 and get in the year 2011, kthxbai, stoopad troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We spend such money on family rather than new PC to browse a forum. My PC is 4 years old and works just fine...... but I build it right when I did... so it's still running strong. Having a new PC has nothing to do with running current software either. You must be living in a third world country that just got the internet and is still on dial up right?

-GR- Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Anyway here are some shots after about 5 minutes playing with it. Before After I am so glad the screenshots were not as revealing as I thought they were going to be LOL. Seriously though, I like square corners better.

Tom Christian Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Arguing that rounded corners slow down a website or crash a browser in this day and age is absolute nonsense. This is purely a cosmetic issue, and personally, the squared navigation tabs fit very nicely with this skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
