Nope, this isn't another They Changed It Now It Sucks thread. : D
The new layout is actually kind of nice--which I hate to admit since I reflexively hate on site style changes--with two caveats:
1. Post text is just too small. Please don't make me zoom in my browser text or change screen resolution to read posts on this site when I don't need to on others. I have crap vision, but not that crap. (Note: by "post text" I mean the text for already-made posts, not the post entry field I'm typing in right now--that field is just fine.
2. User-posted links are impossible to discern from regular text. This makes posting references in, e.g., rules or advice threads difficult--we would now have to call out our links with "<--- click that thing", which just seems unnecessary. Not saying they have to be the standard blue/purple or underline stylings, but <gratuitous agile hat on> as a poster, I'd like posted links to be easily discernible from non-link text so that I know when a poster is referencing external content <gratuitous agile hat off>.
On a related note, the site is running silky smooth this morning--a welcome change from the last few months. Thanks for all your hard work! 👍

This.
This.
Also, this.
I like the new look, but the link styling is a total fail.

Coolio, glad to hear it. I had noticed later that other color differences went beyond style and figured there was some CSS waiting for some love somewhere.
As far as redesigns go, this is almost painless from my overly-entitled user perspective, so kudos. : )

Heya, you should now be seeing some restored colors and fonts. If you notice anything else wonky, please let us know!
Thanks for fixing this.
