Ok. What just happened overnight? The look and feel of the website just got changed, right before my eyes.

The font and layout have changed. The top menu bar is gone.
The check boxes are so tiny, even a nit couldn’t fit in it.

 

hi C,
I use the old Blue version, looks the same as usual to me?

The orange version got changed.

 

hi C,
Just checked the Orange version, it looks 'messy' compared to the previous version

Hello,

@jrap , what did you change on the orange theme?

You mean the Hideous Orange theme just got even more hideous!

 

Hello,

You can always change to the blue theme (AAC Classic) using the preferences in your profile.

If that's directed at me, I can assure you I did. Years ago (like, the day the Hideous Orange theme became the default).

No, it was directed to everyone who dislikes the orange theme.

Oh well, still no support for Link preview generation.

I completely forgot that there was a hideous orange version.

 

but...but... does the blue theme have wicked threads?

 

Where do I get to my profile settings to change this mess? If I tap on my icon I can go to "my account" but I can't find anyplace to change settings.

Hi guys,
Please keep on topic.
Moderation.

 

I see that the check box got enlarged. Thanks @jrap.
Also the top menu bar appears when I turn my iPad to landscape view.

 

Is there a reason behind the changes? I'd be interested to know. I can't see any improvement, but perhaps some subtlety connected with non-desktop hardware??

 

The only time I see any of the orange theme is before I log in, and when I log out...it looks a little more purdy to me.

But I'm not going to change my theme to have a look at the rest of it.

 

I truly hope this site never ever ever abandons the far more visually-appealing blue theme and unilaterally decides to impose the HOV on every single one of us.

I find it interesting that the youngsters seem to like change so much. I've always preferred consistency.
