Disclaimer: this is not a complaint! Honestly I don't do Coli enough to care much about the updates at this point (love the log friends though), but I am in the camp of people preferring the old art of Boreal Woods purely because of the color palettes. Soooo I went ahead and tried to edit them to my own liking :vc

I guess I just don't associate Ice aesthetics with intense pink colors, hahah. Tried to return to the colder, calmer feeling of the old Woods.
Current night background:

My edit (this one is more tricky, 6-7 layers, though I did also intensity the aurora just a bit, but the main part is heavily reduced color saturation):

Your day edit looks like something that takes place midday, while the original looks like it's taken at the break of dawn (even though the rays are coming in from the left).
I think it's more of a personal taste, though. People can prefer style over realism and vice versa.

I rather prefer the current night time one, as the aurora would cause everything to be colorful from how reflective snow is.
I agree with Greyscales that the current day one looks more like dawn... if it had that at the start of the day, and proceeded to a less colorful one at mid day, and then the bright aurora at night it would make sense to me. I don't mind how it is though.

I prefer your day one by far. I miss the lonesome, cold, crisp, spoop feeling of Boreal wood. It's just not the same. And many of the new fams look like they've wandered in from crystal pools.
I love the fams, don't get me wrong, but the color palettes are all wrong for the venue.

Pretty much what I was thinking. I absolutely love both of the current ones, but your day edit is amazing as well!

I preffer yours so much aaaaaa
I just really don't like how current one looks so bright and warm, pink, fluffy and super shiny... I loved old one
I think the new day background is suffering a lot from different monitor displays and what they do to color. On my usual laptop, the background is very pale pink and, like others said, very obviously just at dawn. But the computer I'm using at the moment turns everything a pretty warm red-pink/purple, which is quite strange looking for a snowy scene.

Love the day background edit!!
However I still prefer original night, great job on both nonetheless!

I just started grinding again, and I miss the old Boreal art so much. :c Maybe it's a monitor color issue but the new version is all way too purple on mine...
I like your edits, they're going in a better direction! More actual snowy white color.
