I hate the Orangina too, so (not to beat a dead horse) I used the NoSquint add-on on my FireFox browser to remove all the orange borders, changed the color of the background and text to customize it to my own preference. 

Others who wish can easily do the same. 

There's an quick and easy solution available to fix the 'problem'. 

So there is no real need to complain about Loveland's choice as create-a-forum offers just a few choices.

The members have spoken and Loveland was chosen as 'Style Czar'.  To quote a few politicians, "Elections have consequences."

Loveland is free to change her mind to another 'style' today, tomorrow, next week, next month and/or she can wait until whenever CAF offers additional style options. 

Maybe one of the members here with programming skills can modify one of the presently available styles to appease the critics.  Or even program a new one to resemble the worldcrossing look. 

I'm more than open to it and I bet Loveland's is too.
