I would want these colors only to appear locally on each individual member's forum when they log in and apply individually to each member. (Not a generic red color for yesterday's entires into the local forum and not a simply green color for any entries made on the day the individual member logs into the GasBuddy site.) Maybe this could be applied to all of the other forum topics. I wonder what other members might think of this idea.

It's been too long since you switched so I can no longer remember exactly what changed and my reaction to it.

Busy1 Rookie Author Minnesota Posts:63 Points:258,165 Joined:Sep 2005	Message Posted: Feb 16, 2010 1:02:24 PM Ignore Busy1 Report Abuse I like the blue, it has a more calming effect on a person. The current view is hard to navigate around. Can't wait for the new release!

lnn Rookie Author Dallas Posts:8 Points:310,070 Joined:Jun 2009	Message Posted: Nov 21, 2009 1:03:16 AM Ignore lnn Report Abuse I think either black or blue is fine. Ever thought of psychadelic? .. just a thought.. I would much rather have the non moving ads. They do not attract me to the product they are advertising, they annoy me. I like the icons by the top features. That seems to be where the color does the most for the page.

TwiKan Sophomore Author Wichita Posts:102 Points:17,595 Joined:Sep 2005	Message Posted: Oct 4, 2009 5:47:15 PM Ignore TwiKan Report Abuse I haven't been on the site for about a month, and this is quite a change for me. I'm not sure I like all the changes yet. However, like always, I'll read directions, peddle along through the changes, and do the best I can! I'm sure there are a few others who feel a whole lot different, but how else do we learn if we don't go through some changes throughout our lives??

When I put the mouse over the Gas Price Maps item, the drop down menus are BEHIND the Ad. Hard to click on what you can't get to.

gasaholicNY Rookie Author New York Posts:13 Points:39,905 Joined:Apr 2009	Message Posted: Apr 18, 2009 4:33:56 PM Ignore gasaholicNY Report Abuse This is my first time using this website. I'm still getting used to it. Using the very "Basic" features is easy, but I'm not sure as to what you define as a "Tool" which can be used by more experienced members. Which items are "Tools" and what "level" do I have to reach before I can access them ?

no1lakersfam Champion Author Virginia Beach Posts:8,983 Points:1,643,835 Joined:Aug 2004	Message Posted: Feb 14, 2009 3:13:18 PM Ignore no1lakersfam Report Abuse I tend to like the blue menus better, because it matches with the rest of the site better. In my opinion the black tends to look out of place, and isn't really suited with everything else. I do like the concept of the drop down selections, as it makes it possible to quickly link to more places on the site as opposed to the old setup.
recjr Champion Author Illinois Posts:2,655 Points:497,260 Joined:Jun 2008	Message Posted: Feb 13, 2009 8:43:52 AM Ignore recjr Report Abuse I like the blue menu bars - more pleasant than the black. Could you use the yellow select arrows w/the blue bars?
STM1 Rookie Author Buffalo Posts:81 Points:647,145 Joined:Aug 2006	Message Posted: Feb 12, 2009 7:39:28 AM Ignore STM1 Report Abuse I am still having problems logging in with Safari. FireFox remembers my log in info, Safari does not. (previous versions of this site were not problematic when using Safari.) Oh well, another reason to use FF as primary browser? More info :: Safari problems occur with OS X 10.4 and 10.5 (autofill doesn't queue up the correct log in info).
bell05 Champion Author Atlanta Posts:4,356 Points:907,155 Joined:Jun 2005	Message Posted: Feb 11, 2009 8:41:14 PM Ignore bell05 Report Abuse I think the old menu with the grey has the best contrast and easier to read. I like what SWAMPMOM said that you might try to elminate the old and dead stuff. An nonactive of 6 mos to a year might be helpful.

kolache101 Champion Author Spartanburg Posts:9,058 Points:1,638,730 Joined:Aug 2005	Message Posted: Feb 11, 2009 2:37:07 AM Ignore kolache101 Report Abuse I like the new menu - both versions. The color choice COULD be blue with yellow arrows. Color does not make that much difference; functionality is most important. Some other sites use a dark background with dark print - those I cannot read. I like the clean background (white) that you use on this site. Please leave it WHITE and I will like that..... One thing that happens (with FireFox) is that a new tab is opened for many choices. That makes it easy to go back and forth but then one must close the multiple tabs. (I don't know if that is YOUR setting or MY setting.) All in all, change is good and I like the multiple choice 'pull-downs'. Keep up the good work. And thank you for your efforts!
