I really like it, perhaps because functionality-wise it's very close to the Prosilver theme, which is what I've been using for the past few months. The green is bright I admit, but nothing I can't get used to.
Seconding that it feels a little big and blucky.
More importantly, it feels like the forums of Petopia, as opposed to a forum where Petopians hang out. I'll be happily using this theme :]

*Thumbs up*

I love it! It really connects the site and the forum better.

But I like the snow leopard (or even Mazzaranche, heh) as Petopia forum's mascot instead of the slime .

For some reason the slime makes me nervous.

Maybe cause it's not a "real" (ie. intended) pet? :D

Since it's your forum.. You choose what pet to place in honor..
Hmm maybe..
Make it rotate between pics. Have a new pet of the month or something. Or post hunter pics that we the adouring public send in and have them on rotation; monthly weekly, daily. Have a give-away random lotto/site prize for us, and you choose or have us choose a winner..

I don't see a "real" reply option, just "quick?" Or am I totally missing it?

I like the color scheme, but as others have said it does feel a bit "too big."

Incidentally, I think a cat or wolf would be the best icon for Petopia--the most iconic hunter pets, I think, are wolves and cats. Maybe the new white saber cat from 4.1? The shadings on it have a lime tint in places, and the eyes are bright glowing green, pretty much the exact color of the background!

Edit--couldn't find an "attach file" option either :lol: But here's the pet I mean:

(P.S.--another possible mascot? Chitter! :lol: )

Just found this thread, and switched to see it...
Its very clunky compaired to the subsilver, quick reply threw me off, but not to badly. I am not overly fond of the slime myself, mostly because it isnt really a tamable pet (oversite on blizz aside). I like the ghost saber at the top better.
Could be that I am just not use to this, but i think I am going to stick with the subsilver2.

Well, it was an early beta. :) I'm locking this thread until I have time to do some more work - and I think it may be good to start with a subsilver color mod first anyway - but I will make a new feedback thread when there is something new to feedback. Thanks! ;)
