New forum layout - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I do like the fact I can click BRZ and it stays like that only displaying BRZ side with the rest of OT lounge, etc, with a BRZ banner.... nice

The BRZ banner looks nice. I agree with others though: FRS should be monkeyass red, cuz that's the signature color

Fr-s banner getting short shrift here - the blue background does not blend with the orange car; if you are going monochrome car/background with the BRZ, do so with the FR-S. The FR-S image angle is not as complimentary as the BRZ's, and the BRZ is nicely dropped while the FR-S looks like a 4X4.

Everything looks kinda FANCY now, but I hate to say it
LESS is more.

The bar at the top of each page, I would darken the light blue font color and make the drop down arrows a simple white arrow with a black outline, right now it has that touch of a drop shadow which just doesn't work. The picture at the top left, the orange FR-S, looks like 3 different images thrown together. I would change that into more of a cohesive theme and at the least make it less cartoonish looking. Also to the right of that image there are the words FT86club.com. I would increase the resolution of that and make sure the M is not cut off. The M being cut off reeks of rookie designer. The bottom left of each post, where is says user status, that graphic also looks very 8-bit. Going back to the main forum listings the 86 drift logo is also of very low quality. Other than that is looks nice.

Doesnt sound like a bad idea at all though i like the 8 bit look.

On topic with the others i can definitely agree im not a fan of the orange. If it was silver, black, or white it would make a nice contrast with the rest of the banner and theme. Just me 2c's

Love the new look. I'm glad it's as simple as the last one too.

I like the new layout, but the user block in the middle is going to take a little getting used to. I've always been used to the right side similar to a exhaust system!

I too would like another color for the GT86/FR-S. Can we get a Whiteout or Firestorm por favor!

BRZ has a better colour choice and angle IMO

I figured it was a quick-click to the sub-forum, but it's way better than that!
