Andy 60 Posted April 15, 2008 Please let me know what you think. Try to leave constructive comments though, and let me know how it could be improved or exactly what you don't like about it. More themes will be coming, and the old one is still available, so you won't be stuck with this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted April 15, 2008 Well, it's a bit bright, hon. Seeing as I have been staring at a black screen for a few hours and the next button I click throws me into a sea of white. I mean this in the nicest way possible, but it was kinda like being woken up from a dead sleep with a giant flourescent light. Now the Multi-Fandom Community on the banner is cool, I like that. But I wouldn't mind seeing either a more familiar logo or something a little more detailed, though I realize the stars were probably easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted April 15, 2008 That was mentioned before, but then I got no suggestions so I don't really know what else to put! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted April 15, 2008 Umm.... Well, we could do like a collage of symbols recognizable from the different shows/movies/games/etc that have forums and threads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 15, 2008 I don't mind it. Then again, I don't see it much. But I think it would be nice to have a light-colored background for people who prefer that. Something nice and easy on the eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsl 7 Posted April 15, 2008 It buuurns us! lol, I'm giving it a shot, but I may have to go back to the dark theme. I dunno, I just like dark pages. Maybe it's the evil in my soul :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted April 15, 2008 (edited) looking at this page in a dim/dark room would be extremely painful. Maybe the lighter of the two greys (where our words end up) could be either darkened more, or add a touch of...yellow?

Ender 8 Posted April 15, 2008 I immediately went back to "Phoenix." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mara 29 Posted April 15, 2008 I noticed, I think just for guests, because I don't see it when I'm logged in.. but there is a pink header/bar on the top where the "log in/register" links are. Perhaps you could go with another blue to blend more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted April 15, 2008 That's a default setting. It's red to emphasise the fact that they need to log in or register ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 15, 2008 Ahh, okay. Well, I didn't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsl 7 Posted April 16, 2008 lol, I too gave in finally and went back to pheonix or whatever it's called. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted April 16, 2008 the bright skin would probably work better if it had more of a theme. like from a movie or TV show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted April 16, 2008 The idea was to have a generic one for the main forums, then customised ones for things like the fandom forums. I made a test one with a Death Star header for the SW forums but it overrides any skin choice you make... So that idea is on hold at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsl 7 Posted April 16, 2008 You mean there will be a completely different skin for each of the fandoms so when I visit the SW forums I see phoenix and when I visit the Cartoons one I'll see an anime one? Or do you mean there will just be several skins to choose from that go along with each of the fandoms? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 16, 2008 I would hope the latter... The former might just be confusing, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted April 16, 2008 You mean there will be a completely different skin for each of the fandoms so when I visit the SW forums I see phoenix and when I visit the Cartoons one I'll see an anime one? That's along the right lines. But currently if I did that, then whatever skin you chose would be ignored when you went into a fandom forum. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsl 7 Posted April 16, 2008 I think I agree with Mara. That would be...hard to get used to. For lack of a better way of voicing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake 53 Posted April 16, 2008 It would work, if all the buttons and whatnot were all the same and only the colour scheme and banner changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted April 16, 2008 It's only really the banner that i'm changing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
