    Sorry, maybe it's just because I'm not used to it, but I find them harder to look at quickly and know where I have to go to read new stuff. The red doesn't immediately communicate old and the blue doesn't immediately communicate blue. If others like it, I'm sure I'll adjust.

    I like the idea, a few points of constructive criticism though :

    1) The colors, blue as it is for new post and WAY faded out blue would work better. It would stand out more.

    2) Make the pics a tad smaller, they take up too much room IMHO

    I like the new logo though, what software are you using nowadays ?

    Alright I'll work on the color thang, I think you're right about that. Also the size thing as well.

    Photoshop, although that logo was done in Illustrator/Photoshop.

    I agree, the icons communicate their meaning much better than when it was blue and red, nice job.

    What do you think looks better and is more effective (In terms of the way that the post info is setup):

    Tell me you're not planning on changing software again, that would truly suck IMHO

    Just as I'm getting used to this one.

    Nope But I wanted to see if you like that "layout" better. If you guys seem to like it better I can customize it to "look" like that on the frontpage.
