Yeah, I'll be making one tonight or tomorrow, whenever this style starts to take its final form.

Wow, this style is pretty cool.

Takes some time getting used to. I feel so out of place without the Fusion style, like going to work without clothes on.




How the hell do you form a tightly-knit community with that many people?! Props to Jim and Aladuf if they've managed to stick around there longer than a month.

It's not and you don't. It's for a different kind of experience. It's like cramming an entire frozen turkey up your ass (in a good way). As opposed to here, where you have a nice, thinly sliced turkey half-sandwich

every alternating Thursday

Don't try over-do it by adding all these new doodads and whatnots just because the look is new.

You don't/shouldn't change the layout, in order to change the colour scheme.

I personally like it how it is. I'm fond of the black and green.
A lighter forum board to me looks unfinished, and uncared for. Since gray/light blue is the standard forum board colour.

Maybe some shades of black, with a tinge of brighter green opposed to the forest green there is now.

It's not really tight-knit at all. It's in no way anything like this (and that maybe why I come here more now). I've been there for about a year, Jim and BaB's have been there FAAAAAAAR longer than me.

I think we are trying to stay away from it, but maybe replace the green with a soft blue like powder or sky. See how that does.

Make the background a darker shade of white (I know sounds weird)

I agree with everything here, give it a darker white and ditch the olive color. It feels to... plain.

And Bond, so far no technical problems though.

The new style is radically different than this one. Of course both would be selectable, but I do wonder if it's a problem to have two such different styles.

- Fix multi-quote
- Fix quick reply
- Fix post bit
- Darken background color

style changes always mess with me cause i get used to one and then i dont know whats going on.

and another plus for fusion, the top of each post's box looks phallic. vote we change name from fusion to "boner jams"

[Bond]

I fixed all the major issues.

I do realize we have to change the top banner.

If a few people could use this style and tell me if they run into any problems that would be great.

On it

On a side note, the new colors really bring out William F. Buckley Jr.'s eyes

[Renwood]

I like these colors. They're light, but not blinding, and flat, but not boring.

[Aladuf]

What Jim said, good colors there.

Here's my recommendation. PANTONE Reflex Solid-coated Blue C. Colour code: #000f89. It's just a step up from what I use for my dad's clinical sleep websites. I really like it.

Here's what it would be in action, quick and dirty in photoshop:
