[i h8 hites]

haha i chose light to be different. apparently im the only one who thought this way.

[firefighter5325]

wow your a loner

[Layn Dime]

damn i didnt dark would be that much of a favorite lol

just wanted to see before i changed the layout if i do change it, i like it but it annoys me on my laptop.... i have to scroll all the way over on it with that sidebar :hmm:

[JonS]

dark.

[stepasyd]

i prefer the dark, i guess i've just grown accustomed to it...how would it be, if it were set light? same color schemes, maybe just white, blue and silvers, instead of dark grays?

[Layn Dime]

i'm not sure i havent checked into it yet really, maybe i can even find one that will let people change the colors.... once i finish the theme on my arcade forum i might play with this one a little :)

[Layn Dime]

started on one not too long ago, but the only thing might be changed is the top... the navigation bar was moved.

might work on a different color at a later time white/blue black/red maybe :dunno:

but at least the drop-down is fixed now where in certain threads clicking on a user's name would'nt function

[firefighter5325]

sweet

[stepasyd]

i'd go for black and red, lemme know if you need any help with anything, you have the font for the header though, right?

[Layn Dime]

youloveme font i think? i havent messed with it yet cuz the one im working on now is the same color as the old one, its actually hard to see the difference unless you're hitting "new post" or something..... with the navigation bar moving over im still trying to get used to it

but i could use this image:

but the color changed.... maybe the white to what the forum's background is

:thumbsup:




once i finish the little images for reply,quote etc ill switch the layouts
mods might be able to select it at the bottom already.....

[stepasyd]

hmm..i kinda like the bar across the top..for "new shit"

and yea, the font is "you are loved" gay name...for such a grungy looking font.

[Layn Dime]

hmm..i kinda like the bar across the top..for "new shit"


thats the only major difference right now really but it gets rid of that big default block.... im working on a few things though to add to the layout before its available for everyone.

- the "user title" is being replaced by allowing people to edit it in a thread or profile kinda like facebook/myspace status, i'm trying to get it into the top bar in the left corner but not really working.

- also if used, thought about installing a bar like facebook that allows members to have IM's with each other


but for now im done itll tomorrow sometime lol

[stepasyd]

i feel that shit, keep up the good work...better you than me, i'd be lost as shit trying to figure that stuff out.

[Layn Dime]

site might be a little messed up for the next day or 2... depending how long it'll take me to finish up,
so far i just see the category backgrounds are a lot taller and the logo might be gone :dunno:


I started with just changing the top and bottom a little but turned into a bigger thing with more changes lol
if anyone has any suggestions let me know since i'm trying to make this the last time for a while im doing changes on the forum, besides the typical mod updates and shit.
