What color is this forum theme for you?
« on: March 30, 2007, 07:57:38 PM »
The original color of this particular forum theme was "light golden".  I changed many of them to what I see as light shades of tan and peach.  Since the server move which caused some people to see the default theme of blue, people have told me the current theme color is "orange".  Are people really seeing the forum colors as orange?  I wonder if adjusting the monitor color hues would change it?

I am seeing it as it was before the server move.

Tans and browns I guess.

Blue went away.

I would call it beige. With maybe a touch of orange.

Before 6pm central while still at work, it was blue.  It is now normal colors.  Honestly, I did really like the blue, though.............

Mine is orange-ish.  I wouldn't describe the colours as brown and tan. 

I liked the blue alot better.  Will we be able to customize it to our own colours?  I didn't know we could and thought I would change my own settings to the blue.

It was blue earlier this afternoon (from work) but it's back to it's regular color now, from home.

I added an option to change the forum colors.   The button is located in the bottom right corner of your personal info box at the top of each page.  The downside is that I altered the css for Light Golden to have a white background and then designed the Google ads to have the same background colors so they wouldn't be so intrusive.  I haven't changed the other color css so you will see the contrast between the ads. 

I'm working on the staying logging in problem.

I must agree, although some of the colours - yikes! The 'light rose' option looks more to me like 'shocking pink from the Seventies'!!

I accidentally left it on 'light violet' and quite like it. The 'light lilac' looked more like 'the purple to end all purples'.

Frankly, I don't really care about the colour scheme as long as I can read the posts!
