Site logo, avatars and text editor icons are grainy on retina devices. Need to double up the resolution to make them crisp. Not a major thing granted, but it is a little off-putting.

I'd imagine the text editor icons are what they are but I'd support having a higher resolution logo and default avatar.

We took this on board and doubled up resolution of logo and avatars for high resolution mobile devices and retina screens, you should a huge difference if you use one of those now. I'm an android man and they are pin sharp and really 'pop' now on my Samsung s6.

Main site logo still looks a bit pixelated here on Chrome (iMac).
Assume the logo version I did wasn't of any interest as had zero response to that post.

Correct Greg. Thanks for the mockup.Read it and considered it like every comment that has been made. If we haven't implemented any suggestions then it's because we didn't agree. The desktop logo is slightly smaller today and yes we still may implement a better version for desktop, although by better I mean sharper, the big acorn will still be there I'm afraid.

Has something changed? The logo is very big when I'm logged in, it goes back to normal when I log out, see uploaded images.

What browser you using ? Could you clear your cache to make sure its not that.

I would have gone for a new fresh logo to match the great looking new site. I have always thought that logo looks like something you could make in m paint.

We did lol. That is an all new logo.... design preference is a very personal thing and style preferences vary a lot between people.

Is there any chance you could add back in the time of the last post on the 'new posts' page?

The blue bar is ok, but i find if i leave a tab open, come back to it during the day, and click 'new posts' again, it dosen't move, and I have to try and figure out what is new, and whats ignored.

Thanks

Done, that was reverted on the default theme some time ago but totally forgot about the alternative themes

just interested in how other members find the changes to Acorn?

It seem's extremely quiet, maybe its me but there doesnt seem to be much of a flow
