@Massimo you don't need to "read" icons. Yes Icons are symbols for quick reference. Yes They have to communicate with a quick glance. Yes but the old one did't communicate anything because eyes were repulsed by the Bold states! The new icons are "weak". Maybe but they are communicating with a quick glance easily!

New thinner icons are much better. This bright UI still burns my eyes. As the old one did. A grey dark UI with white-grey text could be better.

The index page icons looks great - in my humble opinion. Some of the other icons are quite 'busy' for me at the moment.

I would tone down the main pages' background a little ['black on white' is tiring] Perhaps the 'gradient' on the individual post's panels could be inverted on the main backgrounds to ease the contrast? As for the icons... they need to be easily identified without thinking [or reading] - e.g. hot==flame/red - it's a particular talent to get 'just-right'. As the king of naff icons I can talk  ... but I'll know it when I see it.

+1, it's blinding. I'd grey it down a bit (modo UI -like)

icono.jpg These 3 one are nor readable : we must think and move the mouse on them for know what they do ! And in general too agressive! And pudgy plump!  The Bluegrey one for Edit, Delete, Report... and under avatars are so chic!
