Admin Announcement Lets Talk About Our Next Style

[Landon Caeli]

Hi,

We have been getting feedback since moving to our new forum software that many are not a fan of our current default style colors and some don't like the layout.

What we want to do is create a new style and have you give us some basic feedback on what you are looking for.

So far the biggest feedback we have heard is that the default style is too dark and not as welcoming. So we will be taking into consideration that and try to come up with a brighter and more welcome color scheme.

Other than that, what are some other issues that you see with our default style that you would like changed.

I think the slightly darker tone of grey, outside the post boxes should be either much darker, or the same colors as @ChristianMatchmaking 's avatar... shades of brown.

The page numbers should never be blue -nothing should be blue, because it's depressing, and too much white is bad on the eyes.

Dark grey, and shades of brown and tan are the way to go.

We went with a brighter more cheerful color scheme due to so many complaints about our current default style being too dark and not as cheerful and welcoming.

I personally think the new style looks incredible. Hope to be able to show everyone it next week.

Looking forward to the release.

P.S. Yeah, the current one is a little dismal.

I like it as it is

We actually just had the new style delivered to us. I will let everyone know when they can choose it and test it out

Waw! Looks nice. I do prefer a slightly darker look though

 

[Jesus' Follower]

Looks good; going to take some adjusting but I like the lighter look.

Teal... Interesting choice. Its not a gloomy blue, so that's good. Also, I like the little Church with the winding road.

Looks pretty good.

Is it me, or has traffic slowed significantly since the change.
