Forum skins/style sets

[Jonaldo]

Is it just me that doesn't really appreciate the current choice of colour schemes we have available to us at these here forums? Whilst these are my main read and probably most frequented site after Spurs Teamtalk I've just never really liked the colours

The icky green Barrysworld colours just don't agree with me and I end up squinting after bout 5-10 minutes. The Game.net black/purple is just not right full stop. Then we got the Dark age of Camelot style set which although I find the most aesthetically pleasing, I don't really want a DAoC logo on my screen all the time, especially as I don't play the game and it's a bit.. well... brown.

Just wondering if anyone else felt the same way, I'm not one to criticise so just thought I'd put it up for discussion A search for 'forum skins' and 'style sets' revealed nothing so I couldn't be sure whether or not there has been a previous topic about this subject.

Personally I'd like some nice pastel blues or something that doesn't clash like the Game.net scheme or just easier on the eye than bright green

Thanks for your time, please discuss or if you feel the need to, just tell me that I'm a complete bastard for mentioning changes to the forum

[Teh Krypt]

Delete the game.net one .

Black background is so unprofessional!

 

[leggy]

I vote for lime green text on a bright yellow background.

:/

pink text on a black background gets my vote

Green for President.

The GAME.NET style, while not personally appealing is a high contrast scheme, thus easily readable.

I always use Green as its teh BW.

I would however like a more boring alternative for the office - white background/black text type thing.

Getting a bit pissed off with nosey fkers wondering what I'm looking at, thank god for the "HitThisKeyToBringUpInstantMapsofSyriaandIraq" key.

Anyhoo, was merely asking, I realise a lot of people wouldn't want changes.

I'll stick to the DAoC 'brown' style then for now.

I can see the appeal of having more options. It was a fair enough request.

There should be a dull plain windows style one for those at work who can get away with it because it looks like a spreadsheet, or something.

 

[(Shovel)]

Would be quite nice to have one matchine the new TechNation colour scheme, it looks nice. It would probably match the "work safe" demands too.

I hate it when people don't read threads.

 

[scooby-doo]

[old.tRoG]

Green. It just looks so much better than the shoddy evil Game.net skin.

 

[Jonaldo]

Give nice pale/pastel blue option
