If anyone wants a visual reminder of how 'bright' everything was: http://www.screenshots.com/metropol247.co.uk/
Ooooh! I remember this. It was FAB!

That said, the current look has an element of class to it (perhaps it's DIMBLEBOT?), and the logo itself is a Metropol institution nowadays. Don't change it!

How about making a theme based on Microsoft's Metro UI?

Ah, but it's no longer going to be called that. Ooops.

A vaguely related comment - having re-installed Windows, then added in a couple of extra thousand fonts, it's interesting to see how differently websites are rendered when not using default fonts.

On that, Metropol and Facebook render quite nicely when Lucida Grande is installed : http://font.pendownload.com/2009/10/luc ... book-font/

The logo is missing! 404 error when I tried "Open image in new tab".

If a new logo were to be made, it would have to be based on another shit logo.

And never has Dimblebot looked so sinister.
