There are other changes that IMO need to be done:

My request would be, as with the former Skinner set up, when you read a thread that it turns blue so that you are immediately aware when you go back the the main DU page with Trending, etc., that you have looked at the thread. That allows you the option of skipping or going back to see if there is something new to read or view.

I found that Skinner feature to be very useful when I was busy and just wanted a quick look-around after an initial check in at the DU at an earlier time of the day.

I really dislike the look of the site -- it reminds me of 1970s "kewl." Yuck.
