View Full Version : Different Color Scheme?

Ok fellas...

Is it just me, or is this color scheme kind of hard on the eyes?

More specifically, the white lines seperating threads and posts...

Overall, I like the site layout... Nice and clean...

BUT I think that the individual threads and posts need to be seperated by a darker line (they're currently seperated by white lines). Maybe grey lines?

I don't know if it's an easy fix for the moderators/admins or what, but I just wanted to see if I'm the only one who thinks this or not!

Pretty harsh on my eye Tabe.

It looks alright but they can change it in a matter of minutes. I used to run a VBulletin board like this and you have complete control of the colors.

I agree. We need some contrast here, maybe just darken the gray more.

That would help ALOT.

Can we put naked woman between each thread.

I think the best picture to use for a background is a pic of THE SHOE, BRUTUS, or a Buckeye.

That's all it would take. The black on white kills my eyes.

I honestly have no problem with it. Are you talking about the areas that have the messages?

I set my own color scheme on myspace to look like OSU colors . Your setup people might want to try 999999 or A9A9A9 as your color codes for your gray it is darker.

Yeah Heater...
You know how each post has a grey box around it and a grey box above it with the day and time?
I think most are saying that the grey boarders are too light, and it would be easier on their eyes if it was a little darker to add more contrast with the background.
Some also think the background itself is too bright of a white and needs to be darkened up a little. (I like the idea of a slightly darker background with maybe a faint watermark of Brutus or the Shoe or something!)

There should be a darker grey and a more scarlet-like scarlet. If whoever can change this reads this, here is the hexidecimal for scarlet: 990000 (they are zero's)
