Hello Wyck,
I can see what you mean when I changed to Island???!!!: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/is/vcgeneral/thread/aeef9d3f-be32-4e43-9ad0-37a01a1b5909/#b9cbafdb-e65c-4f4f-8b25-c7890623a7b9
The "new modern light version" Forum style is far, far away from what it should be in terms of: consistency, contrast, content density, alignment, etc...
Consistency is the essence of an effective page layout. There should be consistency in the content flow, brand elements and the navigation structure.
Consistency in the page layout brings in intuitiveness to the whole website. Consistency makes browsing easy and increases the conversion rate of the leads.
•Contrast: Colour contrast should be taken care of. There should be a balance in the use of colors. Moreover, the colors should be weaved in as per the brand elements. "Nasty" workaround is here, to write in black, to put the post between <div style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial';font-size:10pt;">...</div>
•Content density: There should be balance in the placement of content on the webpage. White spaces or blank spaces should not be very prominent. The pages should neither be too crowded, nor empty.
•Alignment: The alignment of all elements on the page must be perfect. The alignment of pictures, content boxes, links and other elements must add to the balance and aesthetics of the whole website.
I wrote here a few aspects of best practices for web design...maybe someone knows these terms and applies them.
Regards,
Robert
