    new thread display in ubuntu forum!

    don't you think the earlier thread display was better than the new one in ubuntu forum? OR let me put this way- i need to be convinced that new thread display style is comparatively better!! anything you can help?

    more specifically i am more concerned about the colour contrast between the profile information field of any user and the answer field! there needed to be a contrast for the ease of reading. what you think?

    Shortly after we upgraded, the main post area was bright white (#FFFFFF) with the profile area a light grey (#EFEFEF). People complained that the main area was too bright and, frankly, I agree with that. We've changed the background of the main area to an off-grey (#EBECE4). The effect is less glaring and as far as I remember yours is the first complaint about this.

    thank you for the concern but that's still my opinion anyway or else i think there must be some demarcation between consecutive postings in a thread! at least we can add something like the "Quick Reply" bar atop every postings! that would be wonderful! will you please please please think about it?

    There should be a margin between posts, and if you have the default 'profile on top' that's even more of a demarcation. Is this not how it is displaying for you?
    If the only reason you think your software is better is because it's FOSS, you need to write better software

    yeah there's a margin i can see and i wonder if only that margin could be in a contrasting colour like #DE5220 or alike! and yeah the 'profile on top' is serving as more of demarcation; might be i would be accustomed to in due course! is there still a hope that you consider this contrasting demarcation?
    if not as well, it was a good discussion with such nice people out there! i love the way you respond that quick

    okay, long after i got something that would make clear what i was trying to actually explain! just see the attached image and you'll see how better the contrasting(here dark blue in the image) demarcation has enhanced the visibility!!
