      But that was 2 days ago.
      Pity it's not on the 19th - could be called "Arrrrrr U OK?"
      Still, on the 19th it could be renamed to "OzBarrrrrgain." (OzBooty?)

      • R U OK? Day is Today, 8/9. The post was written 2 days ago but just published.

          O, I M OK then!

        Krispy Kreme better run that promo again. I went there last year and spent $10-15 on the costume only to be told that they were out of stock.

        • Dayum!!
          My Dad, brother and I all dressed up and farout was it worth it.
          Nothing better than Krispy Kremes melting in your mouth.

    Dont like it. Makes the site look cheap… hmm wait does that make it a bargain?

      If I don't get the site for $1, I'm writing a scathing review on ProductReview/FB!

    • +3

      Hehe yeah, reminds me of the Black & Gold brand. Maybe that's what they were going for? :p

    • +3

      Reminds me of Black & Gold (as mentioned above) or Dick Smith

        Black and Gold tinned pineapple in juice 75 cents

    +1. I'm not sure what I think about the new colour scheme. Kind of reminds me of Uma Thurman's jumpsuit in Kill Bill :P

    • I, too, see that as a good thing.

      • Me too… mmmm, Uma yellow….

        However the OzBargain yellow reminds me of something altogether different - baby shit yellow!

        I wouldn't call Ozbargain's yellow any sort of bargain at all. I can almost smell it!

    Ok, new colour, and jv actually starts a post… Especially a forum post…

    Help

    It's odd. What gets me is it is just the title bar and not any other related colours like links, icons etc…thought my CSS file was broken and kept refreshing.

  • +12

    This doesn't feel like OzBargain at all! Feels like we're on PetBarn's website.

    Edit: Ooh it's for R U OK day.

    It's in honour of the stockpiles of unsold near date vegemite chocolate.

    • +3

      its the no frills colour.
      Very fitting for OzBargain.

  • I'm in night mode (inverse) on iOS and it all looks the same to me.

    i thought i accidentally pressed a button and my chrome inverted its colors :|

      You're missing the point. It's to raise awareness of depression and to consider those who may have a problem. It's to let people know they are not alone.

      If you'd rather not talk to them then they don't need you as a friend.

      Depression ≠ sadness

      • So true

    Look at the stars

    Can we have a brown banner one day with corn kernels scattered about?

    OZB is acquired by JBHifi?

      JVHifi

  • Like it! sometimes you need a change looks good:)

  • It's a time to ask all those small businesses if they R OK, after a bargain is posted revealing their free sample promotion

  • bit bright and tacky… maybe

  • ah good morning JV

  • Any cut-priced psychologist deals to go along with this?

  • It's just a color, I'm OK with it

  • +1

    Yellow reminds me Dick Smith, and I don't like it.

    • +1

      It reminds me of construction-y things, like CAT, DeWalt and Stanley. Those things are always black and yellow…

  • +1

    This looks Tonka tuff. I like it

  • +2

    I like the orange. Easier on the eyes.

    How hard would it be to implement a colour selection button for members? I'd use it.

    • +4

      yeah it would be nice to have an option to change the colour scheme so it isn't so obvious i'm on here when i'm supposed to be working

  • Colour scheme is ok.
    Reminds me of Pak n Save Supermarkets in NZ
    http://www.paknsave.co.nz/
    So kinda suits site!

  • +1

    Looks like bunnings clearance tickets!

  • Sponsored by Dewalt and Stanley tools!

    On another note. Aha you know what it is black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow.

  • Oh I was worried OzBargain was on fire

  • not a fan of the colour change but whatever

  • Ozbargain has gone on clearance!

  • Oh we're from tiger - yellow and black*!

    Time to close this thread…

  • It's a shame that someone would create a thread like this to detract from the R U OK discussions.

    • to detract from the R U OK discussions.

      It's a shame that some people make stuff up about people's intentions.

  • It is back!!! Yeah!!!!!!

  • For the people who have missed it, OzBargain changed the heading colour to yellow as support for the R U Ok day on 8 September 2016. Screenshot here.

    It's now back to our normal orange coloured theme. Time to close this thread.
