Re: [Vote] UI: Message page template
Any idea when we start getting the actual templates? Do we get them

Because we haven't yet decided on the finished feel and look yet.
I would like the design to be a bit lighter, it all feels a bit heavy
to me.

Re: [Vote] UI: Message page template

FYI
I have asked the designer to make a lighter version of the templates.
I felt that at least the message box on the main page needed to be a
bit less dominant.
Will keep you posted as soon as I receive the new ones.
