The light blue, even though paler, is getting a little old. But I don't like the wider screen - I have to scroll sideways too much now.

Yes, increasing text size by 2 pts would be nice or switching to a denser font. But narrowing the text boxes back where they were would be better. Also the new lack of contrast between the boxes and the background is not easier on the eyes. White on almost white, or vice versa is much harder to look at for longer periods of time. The contrast of the forum colors is still good. But the only change I see on the rest of the site is that the blue and white contrast has been changed to mostly white. Maybe it's still different in just Firefox. I will say most users of Firefox (I'm assuming) chose basic simple graphics and good visual contrast (between text, backgrounds, and highlighted areas), over huge areas of white space with fancy graphics (like Match.com). But if you want to be like everyone else, it's your site.

I come here because it's unpretentious and people can be more honest on this site (even though I'd sometimes rather they weren't, but I prefer candidness anyway). If you really wanted to improve things (for me anyway), allow me to meet friends of both genders, since I don't expect more than friendship from a stranger anyway. If I also need to meet platonic friends, why can't I do it here as well. Match.com canceled the "friends" option soon after they started up. I'm guessing because paying members didn't want to have to wade through ads where sex was not an option (in their minds). Match even refused to approve my profile until I removed the word "friends" from the About Me section. But since this is a free site we should be able to meet whoever we want, as long as the intentions are mutual. Not all love is the romantic kind.

Nah, you add music that has a little "play" button, and the default is "off."

Profiles that play music automatically are obnoxious, but anything that gives me the opportunity to learn more about a person - like what music he/she would share on a profile, is a good thing IMHO.

I never really noticed the new color scheme. A make your own color scheme would be nice. You know what I mean. Something to pass the time away while were "looking for the one" or whatever. Oh and daily horoscopes. More fun stuff.

I think that the Color Scheme is getting there.....It would be nice to be able to pick my own color...Maybe we could get some Themes in here as well...LOL....
Music??...No It would be to wierd to go through the profiles and listen to music...Most people wouldnt end up reading the profile cause they dont like the music
Keep working on the Color Scheme so maybe we can pick our own...It is getting Better...lol

I couldn't care less about the colours, but now everything is TOO WIDE for my computer screen. I'm not very computer savvy and have no idea how to adjust it or if I even can. It is a pain in the ass to have to keep scrolling sideways to read something........this will seriously discourage me from using the site!!!

Thanks for the continual tweaking, big fish, but I liked the old color scheme better. The contrasts were more appealing to me.

And please-- no music on profiles or anywhere else!!

I think you guys should just leave the site alone and leave it the way it is

no i don't at all....this is killing my eyes and the horizontal frame is really wacky....please put it back the old way...

Yup, on all Counts !!!

I think it's too bright!! Owwies.
Either the old way or if we could make our own colors on our profiles would be cool.

Here's the deal with music... unless you are in a band - whose music are you going to put up there? ...Madonna? some Pink Floyd or Tool? Think not, those ppl are artists that have copyrights and usage requirements. POF should not start a battle with the music industry just because ppl want to put a 30 second chorus of their "most favorite song on earth" on a profile when they could just list the name of the song in words. It sounds fun to anyone that doesn't make a living from their music, but I wouldn't smile at ppl using my creations for themselves without paying me. The alternative is a stylized midi or cover song which is nothing like the original and loses the point.

Like the color .... not the width of the screen size though., but I'm sure thats just a glitch and for the price of the upgrade I won't complain any more!!!

The colour is not an issue but the changes to the size are awful. Don't like that at all.

Can we have an option to put it back to the way it was.

The colour scheme is fine - just tone it down a little - it's a bit bright, which works OK right now when it's dark out - I don't have to turn the light on to see my watch. It's rather startling when you first look at it. I'd be a little concerned about people with epilepsy.

It's alright. I didn't really notice it had changed until I saw something about it. I would love to be able to personalize my page a little more with being able to create/choose my own color scheme.

I vote no to having music--it gets distracting and soon you're listening to the song, not paying attention to the profile. Also, song choice may drive away potentially great match-ups before they've even communicated.

agreed. music is definitely something that isnt really needed on this site. I didn't come here to join another MySpace Wannabe site. I think the new stylesheet is a much needed improvement over the last

I honestly didn't notice much of a difference to be honest. As for the music in a profile, totally bad idea. I usually have my own music on when I'm on the computer and hate going to someones myspace page or whatever and having some kind of music blending in with what I'm listening to. Never sounds good and it always seems to take forever to find the stop/pause button for the person's music!

The color appears the same to me. I do like the new layout now much better, I can see the whole thing without scrolling now. I do agree that pictures should be larger and better quality though.

I've had to change my text viewing size. Everything is spread out weird. The scheme itself is tolerable, but why'd you change the "window" size format? I liked the no nonsense, low bandwidth style. I hope that doesn't change. But could you please un-widen the text boxes. The old way was much easier on the eyes:)"



DITTO,DItto, Ditto,ditto.....And I have a large wide screen monitor and I still have to scroll
back and forth...

No No No

Way too wide , as has been said over and over again .

I have to scroll side ways to see all the page , and if i change my text size , the writing is too small .

Please put it back to how it was .

I will be blatently truthful .....

I avoid websites with too wide window size .

Are you all veiwing it on widescreen monitors or something ?

This is terrible . I wont be visiting as often , especially when my eyes are tired . I get a headache just looking at it , !!

Please put it back as it were , asap ....thanks
