Glad to see this will be an available option!

Though this one does seem to load faster
Which is exactly why I prefer simple. In, get what I want, read X posts, etc and out. Graphics that slow down a site tends to cause my interests to drop. The old format was just far too detailed with graphics, imho. Put that in a shockwave, not a website where you gotta download every single little component when visiting the site. It takes a bit. For the user and the server. I'd wager a single hit to the front page with all the graphics will cause approximately 25-30 hits to the server, single front page hit, new person, at least 25 hits. Now multiply that by over 1400 people on the site. OUCH, talk about a fried server.

Glad you guys like it, it was stealth added a couple weeks ago.
It's a good add! Although I'd vote not have removed it from the original site.
Glad you added it back (well, rather added a new skin). I like quick sites. Now if you can just have some way to make the site two columns I'd be set.
