Well, not for the Angels but for our community here. 

 

Yep, it's time for an upgrade again.

 

Sometime in the next couple days you will see a significant upgrade to the forum. 

 

If you'd like to see what's coming here's a couple links that show all the new feature enhancements and improvements to our community. 

 

Here's some features that I'm excited about.

 

IPS CS Core (forums not main app)

Activity Stream

Mentions

Better Blocks

Menu Manager

Dedicated Reviews tab in apps

Better mobile version of the forum

 

 

Here's a video on the activity stream and how you can customize your experience on the forum.

I wanted a red that matches our Logo. The red code you provided looks like shit.

BTW. If you guys are still seeing pink you must be color blind. The color I'm using is red.

The mobile version isn't out yet?

Colors appear slightly different on different screens and different systems. 

Try using #872532 that is the color of the red in the angels win banner according to photoshop

The color is red, just on the pinker side of red.

Yeah, it's a pinkish red.

The more I look at it, the more I feel an estrogen rush.

It looks closer to a Tmobile ad than an Angel ad.

Just sit back and have a cranberry juice.

I'm still trying to figure out what was wrong with the old site other than not being able to skip pages on mobile.

You changed it to maroon.

I'm sure there is some team in the sports world with pink and maroon colors.

Probably Euro or African Soccer..

Jesus, Team No Chill in here today.

I'd go with white. Make it more modern and easier on the eyes. At most, keep some links red.

Make logo 80% smaller.

I agree with others that too much content is below the fold and spacing between threads makes it worse once you start scrolling down.

Gotbeer's beer can is red.

[Chuck]

I seriously cannot please you guys. 

Like @gotbeer said.... It matches the red in our logo.

Doing graphic design work I discovered that there is nothing worse than convincing groups of people of something subjective.

It's a little too white, making it hard to focus on specific things. Maybe there should be a divider between the user details area and the post.

Still, I think this is a great direction for the site. Excellent job overall, Chuck.

Stop looking at my cans.  Unless you are going to buy me dinner first.
