when will it change? Will it be cool? or will I not care for it?

by **madd74** » Wed Sep 27, 2006 17:43:50

I am going to run a test forum with the new version. I will care more than anyone, as I put a lot of time and effort into this board despite so little support (of which if not for you and my un-born, would be zero, so thanks for the time you put in), as it has a lot of small things.

this new version can be checked out, regarding what it will have, at here:

if that picture on that link is what it will look like, then I will probably like it

haha... actually, that is the default. when I get things set up, I will come to you with a list of different themes so you can help me pick out one that works (as I do not really care for the default one)

themes are fun!!! I don't know what it is about the black, but it makes me squint my eyes. . .the text is easy to read and everything.

hmm... squinting for black, well, i guess I could understand that. if you know a different background color, I could look into changing it and seeing how it effects the look. i could send you a "shot" and you could tell me what you think

I don't even know WHY the black is doing that. . .I mean it's clear with the black versus white.

(sorry about the changing of topics :P)

hey, topic change no problem! it would actually be more work for you to attempt to compinsate.

a lot of people (three?) really liked this look. I think it is sleek. I could see changing the color to something else, even though right now I would not be sure what would work.

no, I like it also. It's just something about the black and my eyes. . .or maybe it's the red. . .I don't know, I think it LOOKS GREAT! it just bothers my eyes (I thought I said that before today)

by **madd74** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 16:47:54

actually, this is the first time you said it looked great BUT was bothering your eyes. the inverted text could do that (white on black).

by **sewcute** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 17:04:13

I apologize then, I really think it looks sharp. but the colors just bug me.
