    We old foggies like it just like it is. It would drive us crazy is Shawn changed a thing about it.

    I remember when Shawn introduced the forum jump feature and was nearly tarred and feathered for using link to User CP.

    There is a song from "Lil Abner" that mammy Yokum sings called Put it Back, the Way it Was. I constantly sing it when someone touches my computer. I want my desktop icons just so.

    You can go to the bottom of the page and change it from the default style if you don't like it.

    If all you want is a change, then change the default style to vBulletin blue at the Quick Style Chooser at the bottom of every page.

    I prefer the current style.

    Yeah, the blue looks really ugly, and it hurts my eyes for some reason.

    Hm, well Smyrl's being a weirdo with such sayings, but anyways.. :p

    DP could use an alternative design, maybe not a new one. ;)
    Something different. Something innovative. Something completely unique that'll change the way webmasters use forums..

    Shawn...think of something. :cool:

    Tried the blue and it made my head spin - Buttons and icons are all green and so is the logo - so using the blue VB default just doesn't work.

    I think by this point DP has been branded by the green, although a fresh look might be nice I think it would do more harm than good.

    I use the blue as default and Much prefer it over the green which looks "old" to me... blue is much fresher looking imho. I don't even notice the green buttons

    I used to love the blue design of vBulleting. But the constant use of DP made me addicted to the current style. I still like the blue design, but not on DP. I think the green design is good for the eyes. But I also like the design of csschat.com

    Exactly what i wanted to say. I use blue as well and only noticed the green buttons when it was pointed out in this thread.
