I prefer the old design of the forum and the new design of the website. The old forum looked more clearly.

I think you have to Upload your avatar and not "Browse" for it

I'm both, its sort of hard to focus on with so many brights and darks colors, but looks very better than old one, it was way too simple  :neutral:

Nice job Web dev team !

My eyes fell out of my face : (

I have a real problem reading dark-background forums, in fact I learnt some CSS just to fix some ones I co-ran awhile back to a lighter colour. Surely there is a way to skin the backing of the panels (i.e. the border around this whole forum) but keep the posts background a light colour. Or even just go back to the old Style, of which nothing was wrong at all..

But yea, I have trouble reading this forum now. : (

It is just you used to the default theme...
Forum is in colors of the web - that is a good tone in web designing...
Bad tone when it has different colors... And specially bad tone when it is different with the site...

I was in 30 mins also like "too dark"... Then I used to it and it is normal to read...

Come on, it's fine...

Just get reading and you're used to it. Think of it as the light that you switch on after being asleep for hours. THAT aches my eyes :/, but soon you're used to the new brightness...

Ah u did forum integration?
That makes the Subdreamer (or whatever CMS ur using) skin go to the Forum...

The most features and upgrades have the default (official) themes... As it is already tested many times, themes that are suggested, can not support the upgrades of forums or just stuck in version...
As we have an upgrades of versions and features all the time I decided to use the default theme...
So I just changed colors and some images to the site theme...

Title: Re: My eyes!!!!! >.<
Post by: Gird3r on January 05, 2008, 01:51:21 pm
It's a nice theme.

But the only problem i see is making out light green text. Can't barely readtext that is green. Otherwise the theme is very cool. Good work.

It gives to much highlight to quotes.

Post by: tiderman on January 05, 2008, 05:20:27 pm
I dont like this theme either.. My eyes hurt now when im writing because of this white box screaming on top of all these blue fades..

I would like to have a "theme chooser" in profile options..

edit: yeah know i feel it burning in my eyes after looking for a while on forums
Title: Re: My eyes!!!!! >.<

Hmm some of the colors arent totaly right ( like the names of people who are viewing topics they are hardly visable ) the problem is the blue is dark so the contrast between background (blue) and characters (black ) is  is less then before makes it harder to read I actually tried this color on our forums but decided its to dark . I wish there was some kind of beige ..

The Blue background screws up peoples images in their topics, its hard to make it fit with the contrast of colour..
