      Welcome back to THE original Arlong Park Forums layout, throttled! I don't have to explain much, do I? We did miss this design, so we'll be using this for a while. Big thanks to Griffin, who was secretly helping me creating this design and possibly some other design in the future. Please give him round of applause for he has been promoted to the admin! I also thank some of the senior members for giving us input. The main site will have same design hopefully soon, when Jonas gets some time to work on it.

      Taking this oppotunity, we also did staff reorganization. Some of us have gotten busy in real life, and had to part ways. The staff extends a fond farewell to:

      wanderer-zero - the original forum admin. When Arlong Park didn't have the forum yet, this dude offered up some of his server space and worked hard to keep the place up.

      Konis - we haven't heard from her in a long time, though, she was a very hard worker on forum AND One Piece scanlation. Even though we (Konis and I) had a lot of disagreement in scanlation etc, I do miss her a lot.

      StrawHatLuffy - this boy has grown and gotten busy in school. Though, I'm sure you can still see him around on the forum. Right, SHL?

      Thank you for your hard work! Good luck in real life :]

      Okay, now go and update your avatars and signatures! Some of your avas and sigs are really ugly with this design 😛

      ps. The forum design still needs small tweak here and there, but those will be worked on soon ^^

              Any chance of getting rid of white text on baby blue backgrounds?

              No matter where you go, there you are.

                Black text, how I've missed thee.

                My only complaint is that I can only see the PM bar when I'm on the main index page. -_-

                Konis left? Aw, that's a shame. I liked her.

                      I honestly prefer the old one, but this isn't bad. Nice shade of blue.

                        I liked the color black. but at the same time I still missed the black text. Also I need to change some things I got used to the color of my sig and ava going well with the background.

                              Oh my god. It just hit me, this design is even worse than my first impression of it. Seriously.

                                Are my eyes decieving me, or are the senior members' names bolded in red?

                                And the color from my username is different then the others.

                                I've noticed that the usernames who's profiles you've clicked on are a different color. I think that answers your question.

                                  lol, well, so far the reaction has been better than when we switched to the previous background. "UGH it's so dark and depressing, totally doesn't fit One Piece!" XD

                                    the black also kinda fits for the theme of the current arc oh well

                                        Really…? I not one for pretty colors, and I thought the old layout was fine. I just don't like... grey. I think grey is a truly awful color and should be destroyed (No offense to e1n's Greyspeads :happy:). I saw green, black... just not this blue stuff. It's almost too much like Kaizoku's Crossbones Forum... thing.

                                          Nice new layout, but i mostly browse the forums while i'm at work, and this is quite the attention grabber. i'll be using the older more dull looking format 🙂

                                          EDIT: is there no longer an option to choose?

                                                I don't really like the new layout. Using the same text with a more appropriate banner would've been fine by me.

                                                    just wondering, is there anyways to add the PM thing to all pages? Its shit having it just on the main page.

                                                        Aww, just when I got used to the black one, "Refresh" and BOOM.

                                                        I liked how the nick appeared in the older one, and the black headline backround isn't much, but overall it's not I can't get used to it.
                                                        If I try to make a new logo, pretty much based on this one, is there a chance it'll be replaced?

                                                          I suppose it does look very "spring," kind of like an easter egg.

                                                          It's definitely going to take some getting used to though, it's just too… cheerful.

                                                                Well, I do quite like this new colour scheme, it kinda fits in with the OP feel. However, may I suggest, if it's not too much trouble, that the Control Panel and Forum Statistics be moved to the other side of the page. I believe it would be more convenient and look better that way.

                                                                Rather live a coward than die a man.

                                                                      3. I think the banner should be changed to some of Oda's artwork.

                                                                                      The black parts of the skin don't look very good, though. It clashes with the blue and makes it look tacky.

Other than that, it's fugly. It'd be cool if we could have the choice to use the old black CP9 one, it kinda grew on me.

                                                                                        And at last I can see my postcount, and as I feared… It's not pretty.
