I'm seeing pink??

I don't like all the thread titles in pink. It's uneasy on the eyes.

you sure are picky. i can change the color but the threads will now change colors if they are unread. if everyone doesn't like it i will change it. it just makes it easier to read unread threads. i'm sure everyone will hate it.

i like that idea... just not in pink. how about green or violet instead?

perhaps we should conduct a poll?

I'd suggest moving away from the "shades of light blue" board color scheme altogether, especially if you're going to make thread titles black. Just go monotone, blacks and shades of black (or gray) and even consider white text on black backgrounds. I like the simple yet effective color scheme on the Bauhaus message board:

i assume that hokahey will design a board eventually. i'm just fucking around with mods that make the board do more. it's on him to make it pretty.

Nothing against that board, as it looks good, but graphic design wisdom says that white on black shit is hard on the eyes, so I wouldn't recommend it.

Yeah that black is rough. Not a fan.

I'm not sure how much I want to change the color scheme of the overall board. The standard colors are functional enough. I guess we'll see. If we go monotone it'll just look like a Xiola ripoff.

The Blue is too bright for me (topics, replies, etc)

Just a little neon-y.
