-------------------------------------------
By now you might have noticed that some drastic changes have been made to the forum colour scheme. This is just a quick check to see how people feel about it. I do plan to change the thread columns and the "Forum Options:" bar as soon as I have the ability to.
Do you guys want to keep it? Do you want it changed? Do you have a suggestion to change it? Do you want me to remove it? I have no issues doing any of that, so just give me a heads up, thanks!

I like the red, the black, and the orange. It works well with WAR's logo at the top. The white also offsets the red without conflicting with it.
However, the gray I do not like. The orange links don't look very good on it. Perhaps a silver would work, or a tan-ish color? I'm not sure. You could always find a texture of some sort to use and replace the white.
I dunno, maybe I'll warm up to the gray.
Over all it looks good.This message was edited by Dine_Agoti on Aug 18 2007.

I'm still not sure how to replace the white, but that's the only thing left that's really bothering me. I'll switch it over to a tan colour in a moment, feel free to give me feedback on that afterwards. =)
EDIT: I changed it to tan and it looked horrible, that's about the best brownish colour I could find. Maybe just run the same red down those columns?

Hmm, indeed, the brown I think looks better, but still not so good.
Try the same color of red. Or, possibly, black. But then you'd have to change the color of the text there so it's not invisible.
You could also experiment with those textures I sent you via PM.

If you can make the current one a little lighter or more faded, it would work great, then I'd probably use the other (if you can lighten/fade it too) and get that up and everything should be complete.

Why not just simplify it and make the current black rows the same as the others? >.<

What black rows?
I'll just assume you mean the textured rows. Well, he could do that, but the real issue is that we can't figure out how to get the damn white to change.

Oh wow, they totally looked black on the laptop I was using... But now I can see that they are a brownish/black. That looks pretty good as is, no one reeallly needs to see how many times a thread has been viewed =)

Very nice, Mish. I love the colours they are now, pretty sexual indeed.

One of my guidelines I have to follow, unfortunately, is that all the columns have to be readable, so once I figure out how to make it work I'll just use two metallic colours and then it will be finished. =D

Not that you needed a reason to bow to my greatness, but the stylings put forth today are more reason.

The forum colours look ace! The header image is also fab!
I would like to see you keep this colour scheme.
