New Look

[Brent W]

Spent some time working on the forum colors. What do you all think?

 

[Peder]

Looks nice. Definite improvement. :flowers:

 

[pontalba]

Agreed, it is an improvement, much brighter. Only thing, for me at least, is the tannish/yellowish contrast color. That could use something........a little different. Less murky, more of a clear color to agree with the other.

Thanks, I'll see what I can come up with.

 

[Brent W]

Is that color better?

 

[canuck]

I think the new look is great - thanks.

 

[pontalba]

Yes, it's brighter and lost the murkiness. Thanks.

 

[Peder]

Looks good here too. Nothing like a renovation every so often.

 

[Occlith]

Brent, I think you can go with a slightly warmer shade of yellow that's not too bright. Perhaps FFDD77 or FFD788

 

[Brent W]

Changed it to FFD788

 

[Occlith]

I like it. Seems easier on the eyes than the other shade.

having fun? looks good so far..

 

[sparkchaser]

I really like it.

 

[pontalba]

I just noticed the top of the page has changed as well, looks nice. I like the way the stack of books brings attention to the main purpose of what the forum actually is (should be). Very clean looking.

And yes, the new FFD788 color bar is nice and warm looking, and clear!

 

[Polly Parrot]

Sexy.

I liked the old book with pens logo better than this one.

I liked the old book with pens logo better than this one.

Well, the only thing I'd change about the present logo is to turn the books with the spine outward. Some titles could be shown, or blurred out, and maybe more books....

i like the new header image - it's clean and simple. effective.

have you thought about the status icons? and changing all the blue ones too (Post Reply, Edit, etc) to match the new colour scheme?

I have. It is something I will do soon.

i had a vbulletin site myself for a time, i had such fun changing all the icons, recolouring, adding smilies etc.. altho, i probably went overboard, just a touch perhaps. lol..
