[quote cth95]I just think it could use some color.  All of that shiny, new concrete looks not only new, but cold.  A little paint won't give it the wood of Lynah's benches or the benches and walls in Appleton, but I think it would add some character.[/quote]
Agree.  In an earlier discussion of rink esthetics, someone pointed out that rinks like Cheel and Lynah East give the impression of having too much wall and too little people.  TDWorldBankNorthAmericaFleet suffers a bit from that as well, and a "warm" color on the walls would help a lot.  I do like the fact that they eschewed glitz and made it look like a college hockey rink should look.
