Feedback on Forum Colors

[Tony]

After we moved the forum to the new server, I did some work on the colors. I'm not exactly sure that I like what I see, but I want to get your opinion on it.

What colors would you like to see on the forum? If you like the look now, what can we do to make it better? I want everyone's opinion on this so please post up and let us know.

i like the new look.the red over black. dont change a thing. Its great the way it is

 

[tim]

a little to much red in here i would mix it up a bit with a light blue on some of the letterheads some of the dark reds are not visible or as clear. but other than that looks great man thanks an welcome ,TIM

 

[Tony]

Hey Tim, thanks bro that is what I was wanting to hear. I thought about making some of the background a transparent blue, with all links on the site blue as well. I will dig something up when the site decides to behave and see what I can come up with. I'm also thinking about doing something even more radical than just two colors hehe.

Just added a new color theme to the set. If you scroll all the way down to the bottom of any page, there will be a dropdown box on the left side. Red is the default theme, but I have just added Blue. Check it out and tell me what you think.

I like it, the inverted heli in the logo is cool.

 

[Tony]

That is actually my first logo I made when I started the forum. I took it down with hopes of creating a new one, but it never happened. So, it's back to the original until I do lmao.

I believe I like the blue better, but I am partial to blue. lol

 

[Tony]

Dude, I LOVE red, always have, and I think I like the blue better as well lmao. I thought it was just because I have over 4 hours of changing and looking and editing, and looking, and editing........ You get the point lmao. I will be making a 'Professional' layout as well for those that don't want all of the fancy colors, and just want to get down to business. The 'Pro' will also be the default for everyone, so people that don't like it can always just stick with red, blue, and whatever other color we come up with lmao.

 

[madrat]

lol maybe it's cause there are quite a contrast in colors with the blue in there. Sounds good, giving peeps a choice is good.

My eyes!!!! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

 

[coolgabsi]

and i told you DONT TOUCH THE HELI! lol love that its back!

 

[Tony]

what one are you looking at Gaba? The red or the blue?

 

[RCD]

I must say, the forum looks very delightful! I like it alot! The black with the red scribble thing on the right makes it look very unique!!

 

[Tony]

Have you looked at the blue template? Scroll all the way down, and select "Blue" from the dropdown list and let me know. I also want to know of any other colors you may like as well. Even suggestions on a "Professional" theme would be great.

 

[crashbash]

Both a bit to bright for me, I prefer green more easy on the eyes, but not bright, unless you could tone it down a little

 

[Tony]

Crash, that is exactly why I'm working on a more mild theme now. The red is an "in your face" kind of theme, the blue is toned down, but still has a lot of punch. What are you thinking, white backtround with subtle colors mixed in?

 

[RCD]

Just looked at the blue. I like the red better because red is RC-Help's color.

 

[coolgabsi]

I just looked at red. But red was too too much in your face. Might like something bright on the page. Not the whole page though.

 

[Lee]

I like both. If the blue had that design in the corner maybe i would prefer blue. Celia prefers the RED.
