Gemma, it isn't brown. It's black & grey with a hint of cream! Anyway, it was more Dave's suggestion to change the background to black, which I liked but once I started, I had to change a bunch of other things for the fonts to work. Anyway, I quite like the theme. we'll keep changing. I am getting more used to the code now.
Thanks and I hope that you will :)
Considering how many people disagree with each other I think what you've suggested about individual themes that we can choose from a great idea. And honestly that's what I'm waiting for. Just please try to include a blue one in there :)
I think that will solve all of the problems. I love the layout as well. It's much better than the old one. The only thing that bothers me is the colouring here
And Dave honestly.. so many people have been alienated from here for so many reasons.. even another forum was started.. lets try all to just get along
I think that Bobby is irreplaceable :care:
Im still hoping that you guys will reconsider and please make the background light
Look at how many people have either suggeted it or asked for it :)

We are still slowly changing the theme, it MAY stay black, it MAY not. However, whatever the style thats decided we can change it as we go along.

The main problem we have had before when we used the background image was the loading time, although it was nice to have a pic etc, it did mean complications.

Of course all your input to what we choose is usefull, but at the same time, please remember that just saying things like 'oh i dont like pink because it reminds me of barbie who i hate' isnt going to really cut. So please, again, be constructive. Myself and Kiera, Kyle & Andrea put a lot of time and effort into running and managing this forum.

Thanks

Dave.

Umm... I was joking.

Anyways, I really liked the old colors, but I agree that it was time for a change. I think we should add a little more light green and blue to match the new buttons (which I love). I think the best thing is to start a poll thread, which enables members to vote what colors they want the forum to be.

i really really like the new layout - though the dark color with the harsh contrast of the text is a bit extreme and is wobbly on the eyes - try dimming the text a little and it'll be perfect ;)
