I also don't care for the darker shade of green.
The lighter shade is okay, Except when the type used on it is green also. Makes it a little harder to read. I do appreciate this website and the work that goes into it.
I also know you can't please everybody!
Thanks, Carl

I also agree. Looks like Hospital Green to me. Much easier to read before.

Thanks everyone.

We appreciate the feedback, but unfortunately, at this time, it's too late to change the colors. We invested a considerable amount of time creating all of the style sheets for the entire website, including many aspects that we'd have to go in and change individually. There's no way we can redo all of that work. These colors are here to stay.

Best Regards,
Bob Duncan

I'm finding this all really amusing, no offense to anyone! I really like the color, it's a little darker than my living room walls. In fact when you click onto a thread, the lighter green that shows up is really close to my walls! We've been wondering what color to paint our kitchen, and I just showed this thread to my husband and we just decided to paint it the light greenish-tan here. Thanks WCI for the design idea! All in all, I really like the new format.Change is good!
