I been here a while and i love this game .... i remember back in the day when i could spend a whole day on the game and not even realize it ... now the game is always slow and there is barely any action ... it disgust me that after all this time the game has been pushed to the side ...
I'm not saying im going to leave cause fuck man where else am i going to go ... BUT changing stuff like the layout/background of the game completely im my opinion really isn't helping anyone ... if anything for me at least it made the game a whole lot worse ... im going to be straight up about this i HATE the new layout, alright the new player list is pretty cool i'll give you that but the color scheme the way everything was changed around, and the profiles too ... i have no idea where im clicking and we lost our profiles, and the koi fish ... TOTALLY NOT WHAT THIS GAME IS ABOUT.
I've said my peace

Didn't much care for the layout at first but it has grown on me...and I find the fish give the game a Classy feel about it...This village could use some extra Class.

The color and layout and image changes came about for two reasons:
1: Login needed to change to use the upper login bar, so I created an upper login bar and started changing the css color scheme to match. 2: Grey on grey on grey was a pain in the ass to do web design with, and just a bad idea for readability in general, so I decided to break out of that arbitrary color scheme, so that I could use different colors to make different aspects "pop" out, like errors or notices during combat, stuff like that.
The koi was jus' to replace the previous repeated grey and black background image with a flat black plus some color to keep it interesting, and I figured it fit the japanese theme.
There's more that can be done, especially with regards to tightening up the player profiles, but it's a process.
I encourage submissions for alternate css stylesheets, fitting icon image contributions, or even alternate background images, if they're copyright free and clean enough to not affect usability.

i dont think there was ever a problem with readability because no one ever seemed to complain about it, its a ninja game things are supposed to be kinda dark and dreary ... the top login bar being red is fine but the blue and yellow and what not really throw the game off for me ...

Well, for example, I decided to just default the links to blue because that's a common web standard, so for new players the "standard blue for links" will make it clearer what parts of the game are there for them to explore. In addition, it wasn't so much readability of what was -already there- as readability of new stuff I wanted to be able to add, but couldn't easily make obvious in a grey on grey on black color scheme. The appearance and color scheme will evolve as time goes on.

Well, I took the issues with the new theme to heart, and have changed us to a much more user friendly theme, more befitting the plans for the direction that the game is going to go.

Damn this turned into a flame fest! I like the fish I see what they are there for. One Japanese culture and on top of that if you think of it any martial arts form is based on peace of mind why would ninjitsu be any different? As for the color scheme I like that your trying to change it up, but I do like the old colors of Grey on black or red like in the forums.
as for the flamers in here, the pink is what you get for being jack asses to the admins lol.
