I don't like it. I'd rather a much darker green and black scheme.

It's always been optional hasn't it? Along with yellow, red, black, brown, blue-er-than-usual, etc......

Anyways, I like it. I also like the default one though... think it looks well. Not pushed either way tbh...

The green seems to make the place seem a little friendlier or something...

It sure is.

Regarding the green theme, mine's always set to blue so didn't even notice that the default theme had changed.
It's optional anyway, if you like it then keep it, if not then don't.

I don't like it! I think the older one is easier on the eyes.
And somebody else mentioned it in a different thread, it's hard to tell the difference between a link and underlined text.

Bottom left - change the combo box which has your current theme to 'Green' (or alternatively, click 'boards.ie' in the top menu and then Change Styles and select 'Green')

.. you're far from missing out!

If people just want it as their style, click here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/index.php?styleid=21 (the link is fine btw, no GNAA sh1t)

The white is just the standard vB.

Im a Cloud person myself, I like black and yellow.

How do so many have it, if it takes that much effort? And it looks more grey than green to me...
