I know, the username colours don't really go. The colours are ones I chose for each group. The default install of XF has them all the same colour (which looks a lot better on this style).

I can change the colours to be better suited to this style per group.

I think the forum home is slightly longer because the node icons are larger than they were on the old one. I can also shrink them down a bit which will reduce the length.

I thought the old one was alright personally.

This one is not too bad, not keen on the heading font for the threads and as Carl said about the colour of the message user block.

Thanks Si. The font is in use is the same as the old style (Ubuntu).

The old style is the default XenForo style which I changed a few colours on. As more sites are taking up XF, there are loads using the default theme, so I wanted us to have something a little nicer and cleaner looking.

It's also fully responsive, and scales really well on the iPhone / iPad (better than the old one did)

Is the font size bigger? It stood out to me thats all..

If you send me over the z22se logo source, ill make an adjustment for it to work on here?

Also if you wanted to you can split the colours for the user messageuserblock (css line :331) as there is also extrauserinfo (css line:337) for everything below the name & title

Matt

Yeah, the font was was 13.5pt....I've just reduced it down to 10pt and the node title down to 11pt as per the old theme.

I've switched the colour scheme around, as the blue and grey are swapped. Thoughts on that?

Also;

.resourceListSidebar .categoryList li {
padding: 2px 0 3px;
overflow: hidden;
zoom: 1;
font-size: 11px;
}

for the resource categories to make them fit in line (add font-size:11px😉

I can see the arrow on the right pointing to the post is a different colour to the avatar holder.

PowR_Remap

Matt

By the way......I hate CSS! I'm good with HTML and PHP, but CSS makes my head hurt
