I like the new message icons too ... the full envelope. And yes, what happened to the coloured smiley's?? They look so pale and washed out ... the sad face really does need to be blue.

The colour scheme here on the forum helps to unify with the rest of the Active Lowcarber website. I think it's great that there's such visual consistency from page to page. Although, it's going to take me a while to NOT have to correct myself from typing " ... please click on the red menu bar at the top of the page .. "

It took me a while to take a shining to the orange also ... but I've chosen to think of it as GOLD instead. A nice sense of warm, sunny and inviting.
