In what way is it terrible? How about offering advice to improve upon it.
The blue one was easier to read the text on. This is green, moderator names are even more green, everything is green and it's not even bright like the old blue one. This is a frustration if anything.

Looks exactly the same to anyone who is Blue-Green colorblind.
It's just your choice in color.

That sucks.. Oh well. Would be nice if we could at least have the ST Clone theme back. This default one is kinda hard to read and junk.

It doesn't matter which one won the poll, it wasn't supposed to have been made in the first place.

I'm trying to change the board style in Options but it doesn't look like it's working properly. Setting it to Blue Space just redirects me to the Default one. I don't know if it's an error on my part or something else.

The blue theme is still bugged out, I think it has to be recreated to be able to work again.

The forum's Search function is definitely broken.

There have been reports of things like that breaking, seeming to involve browser cookies becoming corrupt. Try logging out and logging back in?

Not really.

I made the original design for the current logo:

I've heard various suggestions to improve it but never anything that people could agree on other than "make a vector/clean version", though I hear there are a few that liked the original pixel design better than the current version. My goal was to get something close to the Doom logo and Descent logo, that era of DOS game boxart typography, with some influence from Psygnosis' crazy boxart typography.
I'm open to suggestions, for example I could experiment with a cleaner and less abstract version.

Bah, considering the bigger amount of the playerbase voted for something else, I thought you guys would pick another logo instead of upsetting the larger group.

IMO, the logo is just too inconsistent with its lettering style.

Is there some time limit before which double posts get merged?

I think the Forum Search is broken.. The New Posts work just fine, but the Regular search.. Even selecting the right forum where Who Dun It, should be, never shows up. Go ahead and Try it. Looking for "Who Dun It" brings up this topic, and the Alpha Zandronum Topics. And any other way gives you the default "Nothing was Found" message.

Be sure to report it in the tracker.

It'll probably have to wait a little while. There are some thing that I need to do for the forums, but I'm kind of waiting for an optimal time to shut down the forums for a bit (which probably won't happen until a few days after the 1.0 release).
