I don't know if anything can be done about it without changing templates and maybe it's just me but I have to sort of squint my eyes and concentrate to see which of the little circles are green (new posts).
Obviously the color is different but I guess the tone of the gray and green are similar or maybe it's all that shading within the graphic.
Or maybe I need my eyes checked, who knows...
Never had a problem with it myself but maybe CJ can do something a little different.

I just use the show unread posts since last visit thread, so I don't have that problem.
Aren't we special. :tard:
Jason :laughing11:
ps. Seriously though, I would think the color could be corrected. There is even an option to let the user decide their theme when on this forum.
I'll try.
ok the test worked.
Give me a few days to come up with something to fit the theam.
Maybe:
.50 in a white circle = no new posts
.75 on a red sticker = new posts
What'd ya think?
SEE!!! DIDN'T I TELL YOU!!! Those price stickers would come in handy.
Wahlll, I've been a bit busy. These are just first-run prototypes, but I can modify them to fit any need...

CJ, I see where you've applied a new post-icon. Maybe using a transparent background won't work here. Try the same background color as the area its sitting on.
Actually they should be transparent, but i was lazy.
I can change em later.
Nice stickers SR, thanks.
Although, i don't think .25 or .35 stickers existed. Those were the prices that was getting covered up.
I think .75 was the most common. And i have seen 1.00 stickers.
I would agree that .75 was the most common, but I've got a .60 and a 1.25 in red also and a $1.50 in white with red numbers.

Sounds confusing, especially for new users.
Jason
I know this is stupid, but why now just new and no new or something similar. I thought when I first saw it, that I was on a pay site. While I soon realized that was impossible, new browsers might not.
I have to admit, while the price tags are clever, they can be a bit confusing, especially to a newcomer.
I like the look now, much better, less confussion. :thumbsup:
Jason
Cool, I can definitely see the new posts easily now. Thanks!
Now where's that easy button?
Jason
Came across this $2.00 sticker today.

Man, that is one crazy-ass cover. Also very funny.
Love Jay's work, cover is awesome!
