Users just need to go into profile > change post nuke profile > time zone offset > and set it for gmt - 1 hour.
That fixes it at least from the individual viewers aspect.

My votes with the much prefer the new look - got the old one open in another window and theres no comparison - this ones slick :-)

Nope, I hate it - it looks undefined and messy to me, and there's too much fussy stuff on the left hand side of the screen now. Plus, having a pure white background with black lettering can make my eyes wobble, it's too harsh - any chance of having a different skin similar to the old one please?

It's no good, I really am struggling and I can see a nasty flicker developing on the screen. Having to log out now.:(

I like it and prefer the colour scheme - I think it should change every couple of years anyway...

As for the header text being right justified - I'd second the comment to make it centred. I'd also suggest to change the bonnet motif a little to make the text more readable (I'm on 1280 x 1024 and only know what it says by guestimation)

Unlike most of you, I knew it was coming at some point - but still found it a surprise :D

For those with snow blindness / headaches - turn down the brightness on your monitors. That makes a massive difference (I have to do that at work).

Nice to see that the main site is being kept in line and was modernised today too :D

Looks a bit wishy washy to me. The blue was nice and relaxing! And perfectly readable.

I'm unsure. I like the idea of the left nav but it does seem to steal a lot of screen space from the content. Maybe making it a little narrower would help, or if possible have it as a slide in/ out?

It is a little bright too - Going a little more "hint of" in the would help that immensely without actually taking anything noticeable away from the contrast I reckon.

I'm not big on the grey, but can live with it. However the buttons now seem somewhat wrong for the theme!

As the Pnphp logo is merely a link to the board index and there's already that top and bottom of the page it might as well be ditched. It certainly clashes with everything and there's probably no point changing it for something else when it can just be gone.

I think overall I do prefer it to the blue though, it's just not quite as polished as it maybe could be :) It's just that little too harsh after a long day, and a little too cramped for a 1024x768 screen.

Don't bother with a poll. The old one is not coming back!
Well I guess that kills any daft ideas of democracy or providing a service to members. "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely". Goodbye.
