Initial reaction: Although the site looks much more professional, it is MUCH harder to read. Orange and black type on a dark blue background just does not work.

And by "more professional looking" what I kinda mean is "not as much fun."

This is a "knee-jerk" observation of about 30 seconds.

It's a little harder to read but, the color looks awesome.

I like it, but harder to sneak a peak at while at work because the colors are more vibrant.

Heh, just posted a reply but lost it because the site was updating.

The blue is a little overwhelming, and I think the contrast between the white backgroung of the photo and the blue background of the site is a little much. I'm not a big fan of light text on a dark background either.

On a positive note I like the text better in the reply box I am typing in than before.

*copies text in case he looses it again*

One suggestion, how about adding a "remember me" option on the login box? They we would have to re-login everytime we close IE ... that would be a big help and make impulse buying Mystery Boxes and Mystery Items so much easier Smile

I logged in on the main page, got an error screen telling me that the log-in failed, and to log in again. When I checked in the upper right, there was my handle staring right back at me...?Question

Ok, so far I love it. Only one thing I do not like or not neccesarily don't like, would rather it be the old way and that is the bit in My Account .. It now says My Orders and not My Flings!! I preferred Flings personally!

That's all, overall it's a great change!!

Good Job Team Fling!!
5 Flings so far!! WooHoo!!

Why have I got this in my Siggy ... BECAUSE I CAN!!! Wink

I like the ability to track your shipping progress from the "My orders" screen, so you don't have to go to another we site Smile

In my account, is it possible to have the name of the item ordered on the summary screen? THAT would REALLY help! Thanks!
"First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then flingest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
