+1 Not a great new forum. Not a good new forum. Not a _bad_ new forum. A real nothing. ---

I suppose it comes down to functionality and aesthetics. My own use of the current forums finds its functionality largely ok (but I want my CODE. Alliance moniker up there please, so that everyone will know where I’m coming from and make snap judgments about my psychology and any associated behavioural traits). Aesthetically? It’ll do, but I sometimes wish that EVE would move away from the ‘everything black, everything else, dark’ mentality. Posting in a Blogger/WordPress thread is heaven compared with this - for me! =1 (is that right?) ---

I like the new forums, but the actual content seems to have declined for everything other than Marketplace. ---

> [@c4binfever](#): > > Checking out the script by @Nana_Skalski because i really miss the large avatars also Its actually from @Erika_Mizune. I have only skills to modify somewhat this script. I made avatars even bigger on my computer. 180x180 pixels. Only they are put into 140x140 pixels frame so when I have forums zoomed to 110% they dont get blurry. ---
