New Skin / Style

[seanbig]

The forum now has a WoodTone skin. If you would rather revert back to the blue scheme, you can do this by doing the following:

1. Click User Control Panel - Top Right
2. Click Board Preferences - Under Options on left
3. Select subsilver2 - To the right of "My board style"
4. Press submit

There is also an option for prosilver which is another standard skin from phpBB.

It looks fine. However, I find the lettering in the darker brown areas very hard to read. (Such as this post).. I would be surprised if I were the only one. It's something you may want to think about.

I found the options and reset it for my vision! Great feature..

rgogo65,

Thanks for the heads up. I will see if I can get some better contrasting colours for the darker sections.

Yes...I also changed to the blue because the brown was too hard on these tired eyes.

[Kevin Sjostrand]

me too, just changed to the blue/silver. But I like the brown/yellow...just see if you can eliminate the dark area for posted messages.

Kevin and Others,

I recently lightened up the brown a bit. I still need to change some images that are too dark that I can't change until later tonight. Let me know if the lighter brown has helped out with visibility.


Thanks,

Sean

I'm using the wood tone, and it looks pretty good to me.

[Kevin Sjostrand]

That is better, but perhaps if the font color is black, it will show up even better.

Yes, I like that idea Kevin, did you set yours to black, it shows up much better?

Kevin,

I took your advice with the black text. I think it helped out a lot. There are still some things that show up dark on dark that I need to take care of, but for the most part I think we've got a lot more contrast.
