when will you guys update the theme of the site more suitable for 2013?

I am not saying this to offend you.theme is not much important for an encyclopedia like manga updates.If it is website for anime/manga wallpaers and other stuff you may say.But as an information site they are doing their best.So,The current theme is okay I think so.

Make it more bloated with a ton of javascript animations and shit? No thanks.

Well Just Suggesting!! but you guys are right much easier to browse here than other site. without the heavy stuff. but i mean they can change the look but same format. well somehow using this theme is nostalgic and their still up and running than other sites i go to..

I think I remember something like this being mentioned a couple years ago, but nothing ever came of it. I don't know what the hold up is, but it's probably for lack of a designer/developer with the time/motivation to do so.

Since the layout is pretty functional already, I'd rather they take their time than to pull a youtube and make everything harder to use.

^ Yep, same. It was mentioned when we got the mascot here: http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=32989

I think most of the admins that work on the developer side of the website are strictly programmers, not web designers. Rarely do you see both hand-in-hand...

Well, I like the current theme. It's simple, clear and doesn't bombard my eyes with colourful pictures. And to me it doesn't look old-fashioned at all.

I know that all too well, seeing as I studied both new media and programming. It's actually quite a shame the two departments don't work together more often since the two end up doing each other's quite a bit.

Gotta say that I love the current theme. Updating it to look more "2013/2014" wouldn't really make the site better..

But that's my opinion, I've never been the one who likes the heavy/complicated/modern stuff. So I have a bit of a hard time getting why updating a theme matters...and such ;p

Please don't change the theme. You know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Unless we get a volunteer programmer who is motivated to change the theme, it's gonna stay the same
