Forum Design

I have to agree with the above comments especially the fact the colour scheme is easy on the eyes. Other forums with their bright White background and dark text can at times through long periods of viewing give me a slight headache.. I'm yet to get one from trawling through here which is fantastic when you find yourself reading almost everything.

Who are you? A Don with 256 posts? Eh?
 
I would quite like a flash intro to every page on the forum and randomly placed animated clip art.
 
It's nice, clean and simple. If you think these are bad, there are far worse "popular" forums out there, often with massive sigs and mental Avatars, meaning too much going on.
 
-ignore, didn't realize it was a massive bump-

No, it is a very good design. I wonder if there will be a time when we're forced to upgrade for one reason or another...

I have to say i am partial to FluxBB, but that is usually better suited to smaller communities.
 
I like the clean simple look, too many flashing objects usually annoy me and I find myself blocking half of the images anyway. I do prefer the black theme for here but the default is still incredibly nice to use.
 
I love the look of the forums, especially the uniformity of the signatures :o

The only thing I'd like to see is a choice of themes, so that when I'm at work it isn't hugely obvious that I'm on here :D

No you haven't missed anything. I'm not really sure why myself!

Who else is with me for being able to choose a white theme? I want to browse at work :D

I see. You don't even know why not yourself then? Very confused

If I remember correctly then you're tg4?

Why white? :confused:

I don't really know why, no.

Anyway yeah I'm TG4, and I'd like white because it's a little less obvious that you're browsing some internet forum at work when there's a white screen instead of a deep blue one! It's also a case of if they know that the "blue screen" is a forum as they've seen you on it before, whenever there's a blue screen they know you're just dossing :p

I'm very curious to know where 'work' is ;)

Of course, it is none of my business. For what it's worth, I've never ran into any trouble browsing in blue.

I'm sure your modship is a misunderstanding. At least I hope so anyway, I always thought that you were one of the better mods, fwiw.
