Guys... some mentioned the black/white theme was a little bland so I flip-flopped the link color (gray) and the visited link color (lightblue).

What do you think? Should we keep it like this or switch back to the previous color theme?

I vote for whatever keeps the site running most efficiently and the pages loading fastest.

font color has absolutely zero bearing on the speed of loading, my friend.

I think blue links and Gray visited would be easier to see. Lately I think the grey means previously visited, so I just skip over it and then have to go back and look.

How about the 2 most popular gp colors? Red and Black?

I know... I've mistaken the meaning of the gray links sometimes as well... but then again I like the way the overall gray looks on each page. I dunno... either works really.

Yeah, Like I said i'm just not used to it yet....give it a week and i'll be used to the colors and know what i'm looking at.

I don't see a reason to start switching up colors yet, so far i am really liking this site....much better than the old one. No offense, but it was kinda bland and old looking, this site has a little POP that sets it apart from others I have visited.

Does that mean gray links with blue visited, or blue links with gray visited?

I vote to have all the links ([un]visited/active) blue (or at least not gray). The icons next to the posts indicate read/unread, so I don't see a point to knowing what links have been followed or not (maybe others do?).
