Bolder icons?

**JHudd** · 10-09-2007, 06:51 PM

I have noticed the "Report post" button looks much more enticing now, kind of that don't push the red button phenomenon (When you know you really want to push it all the time). I do like all the extra "little" touches that have been updated lately, it is like a miniature scavenger hunt.

Anyone else notice the purple and pink tints that were around for about an hour earlier?

**JHudd** · 10-09-2007, 06:56 PM

The new thread and post reply buttons were gold for me a while ago but no purple or pink.

**Cyclone62** · 10-09-2007, 06:58 PM

No, the white above and below the threads was pinkish, and the threads were purply for a while.

:) I'm just playing around with some different button styles. Any preferences?

You are supposed to stay away from these on the weekdays. J/K

You definitely notice the buttons more this way, don't really have a preference one way or another.

I don't care for the buttons that are up now.

I am liking the red bottons. Maybe make the font a little sharper and not so round and it will look nice.

If you stay with the red, you will have to background the rep and report buttons with grey instead of white, so they look more round.

What would you want changed about them? Obviously just about everything is different about the new ones so any help is appreciated so I don't mess anything up:) Is round vs rectangle better? Bold vs some-what plain?

Thanks for the feedback everybody, hopefully I can find something everybody thinks looks good.

That was the next step but I wanted to get the initial style down first. Once everybody settles on some common ground, I'll make sure all the small touches look good.

ok, I like the red, but my website look and feel radar is going off.

Suggestion: Make the logged in logo the same look and feel as the rep/report logos, it looks kinda goofy with them being differnt. Maybe take the red button from the rep/report, and leave the red buttons for the other things. I love the thread and reply buttons.
