Brunel rocks. Admittedly, it weirded me out a bit at first sight, but it took me about 30 seconds to begin to appreciate it. More readable than Goo, more aesthetic than Alabaster, and more functional than both. The complex yet intuitive layout is absolutely superb, and looks great at a range of window sizes; somebody at h2g2 really has a masterful understanding of the quirks and intricacies of HTML.
Oh, this reads way too much like a review. Count me in please.

Super! I'll put you all on the list! Welcome to Bruneldom, and if any of you know how to make a nice Brunelly banner, that'd be cool. Also, we should start writing odes to our new skin.

I'm actually quite surprised how many we've got already!
btw, Strider, sorry to be picky, but could you take the h out of my name please?

Thanks! I may as well get drunk in the process...

Consider yourself signed. And don't worry, we won't scream if you have alabaster or goo days, so long as you return to us...

'k.
Anyone else get a headache from that green colour though? They could darken it or something...

I did complain about it in the test server, but I was outgunned...
Folks, there's been a slight issue. Another Brunel appreciation group has been formed. I'm all for a merger of the best bits of each, but only if there's a general concensus here.

I know. I was the only other person who supported you . I've posted to Design Feedback about it.
Why don't we declare war on them? It could be fun ...

Hmm... I think Brunel might need all the unified support it can get.
I have to go for now, though.
For those Gurus, I have a couple Guruly questions: What's the colour code for the red used on the front page, and what's the font(s) for Brunel? I'm trying to make a fanclub banner.

The font's Trebuchet MS. I'm gong off to find the colour codes now...

The green hex code's #009900 ATM. I'm 'campaigning' to get it changed, so check out F47998?thread=203329 !
*goes off to grab the Red hex code*
