Logged onto the site this morning, and I thought something was wrong with my eyes. Everything seemed very difficult to read. You can definitely put me in the "don't like" column. Everything looks bleached out and way too spartan.

The red thread titles are hard to read on the white background, and it's hard for me to see the difference between the bold titles that I haven't read yet and the ones I have read.

When you quote someone else's post, their quote changes to italics, which is also very hard to read. I liked the shaded box that was previously used set off a quote much better.

I'm hoping I get used to the new look.

I also like it. It is much easier to read.

Wow! What a change!
I like it, even though the default font size is smaller the red color makes it easier to read, at least for me. I like a minimalist look on websites, too much clutter and I always feel like I have to wade through a bunch of eye-popping graphics to get to what I want.

I don't like it. Bring back the old, better to read and easier on these old eyes.

Is iRV2 in the "RED or black? I could get used to the new design, but get rid or that small print and the red.

I like most of it. However, toooooooo much RED!! Maybe a blue or green would still stand out but not assault the eyes as much. I have always gone to sections I wanted to read and after reading through 5 pages, I would hit home instead of the back button. But it doesn't go home anymore. I would like to see the first page deleted. It seems to me the print is a little bigger and darker, which I like. Either way, I will get used to the change.

As with most changes in things, we will get used to it. HOWEVER, I agree that the red on white is pretty much "in your face" obnoxious! Also, increase the font size some. Obviously, a 23 year old redesigned this with smaller font. We have the same issues in our offices. It's their way of "whispering" behind our backs like they did as children.

Those red titles have to go.
half of the male population is color blind, as I am, I cannot see them!!!

Please, make the titles BLACK again...

Just logged in today and saw the change, need to hit the control panel and see if something can be done to FIX IT.

Not sure about 1/2 the male population statistic but...

You are totally correct that this is still an overlooked issue. I like the new design (not color blind. LOL) but I can certainly live with black font.
