Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
My take on the new software
Positives:
1: Resizeable tables
Negatives:
1: Graphics look faded when players have folded. That grey colour I'm talking about, it's horrible. Don't grey them out, just have it written that they have folded and remove their cards.
2: New style chips graphically look worse than previously and does not state what each colour unit it represents.
3: Table layout is horrible. Much prefer the 3x3 rather than the new 2x2x2. Can you give us an option to choose?
4: Players tag display looks better in the old software than the new. Also unable to roll the mouse over a players name to see their location. If you could revert to the old player tag that would be far better imo.
5: Timer bar. Do we really need to have it plastered over the middle of the screen?
6: The community cards look cartoony than the previous ones.
Features you should implement:
1: Preset bet sizing tabs ie 55%, 65% etc like on PS and FT.
2: Time bank! This is so important and I cannot believe you have still not implemented this.

Probably worth reading this which you may have missed.
Difficult to comment on some of your points as many are subjective and, as we said, things like this are never going to be liked by all but we've designed them with a lot of help from players and we have designed it with their feedback.
Thanks

Forgot to add, the fold., check, raise buttons, they look terrible in those colours and very tacky.
You can see location by clicking on the player.
With regard to the buttons, guess that's your view, we disagree but we may make it customisable in the future.
