New WSO Forum and Comment Design

We took the suggestion and contructive criticism seriously a few short months ago in this thread: http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/blog/wso-site-suggestionslet-me-hear-it

...and we have a LOT more work to do, but redesigning the comments and forums was not an easy undertaking and something that I really think helps the UI.

The white user navigation bar along the top will also get some refreshed icons next and we still have some stuff we can do to integrate better UI with jquery / dynamic features...so we're on it. Just wanted to give an update...also attached some of the iterations so you can see some of the work behind the design.

Thanks,
Patrick

I dont like not being having trouble being able to see how much MS has been thrown at something.

Agreed, too difficult to see. I liked it in bold at the top of the post like it was previously. Everything else looks better. The mobile site is orders of magnitude more efficient, which is what I mostly use.

good point, what if I were to make it so the Content Score was not opaque? so that is already "faded in"?

Would work for me.
 

Agree w STA. And as an aside, hoooooooooooly shit, I just re-read my comment from earlier, and it has more double entendres than a high school pep rally.
