    Just noticed that the star graphics used for thread ratings have changed for the dark color scheme and they look really bad, in my opinion.

    Honest feedback is honest.

    I like the change. I never could see the red stars on the dark background very well, and now I see .... stars!

    Truth is, we had the image server go down for half a day. I loaded up the images I had on a second server but for some reason, I still had the old default one ([​IMG]) for the thread rating image instead of the new one ([​IMG]) in that folder.

    I can change back ... red over yellow?

    Rockets Red forever! Yellow is the color of Justin Bieber's favorite team.

    I see.

    What about changing the red stars so they have a stroke on them? They'll be easier to see.

    Here's a quick example. I used #cccccc so it's visible but not overwhelming.

    Thread ratings need to be turned off - they rarely give an accurate evaluation of the thread quality.

    Maybe we should just have a complete skin overhaul? It's been a long time. :grin:

    I like the old red ones we've had originally.

    I think Clutch should sticky a thread on the GARM to inform people how the thread rating system works. Just because you don't like the news (i.e. Landry gets traded, etc) doesn't mean you rate it a 1.

    Yeah, the yellow looks a little out of place in the dark scheme.

    I like the bordered red, though.
