225/228 - you couldn't make this up

 

[Gimpymoo]

Charcoal Grey for the win !!!

Change is good, it makes the other style look a little dated in my opnion.

The "black" is definitely more contemporary and dare I say, original?

Also, the colour scheme definitely more closely resembles the OcUK homepage.

EDIT:

GRRR - Just preseed the "Trust" button which came up blue, it looks horrible compared to the "black".

Surly you mean yellow

You and your arguments! I love you Tefal. I really do. And because of that I'm going to give black a go (watch it!) to see how it is.

 

[Nix]

I like both themes, but I'm siding with the group that's suggesting it's time for a change. However, I'm also somewhat attached to our blue theme too; it's traditional now.

I would suggest like other posters before me that we can add both themes into the user options, with the blue remaining the default.

You could if you're feeling a little fancy Spie, hold a competition to replace the OcUK logo for the blue theme.

who cares what people think it's about how easy it is on the eyes.

I do and blue is more easy on my eyes than black.

Blue is the colour.

 

[Trifid]

Blue is for OcUK, everyone knows that and should be the default theme. Saying that, I would quite like to have the choice for a white theme similar to Talk Photography.

 

[Freefaller]

Blue has always been the colour of OcUK, however I wouldn't be adverse to a change, more so if I had a choice. I'm going to be contentious and say black!! Why not it's the new year!

[^TANK^]

Black please Spie.

 

[gumbald]

Equal!?

Once you try black you never go back.

 

[Beerbaron]

keep it blue

 

[danza]

Damn the voting is close!

I prefer blue, but only just. Not many other forums use blue, so it gives OcUK a bit more individuality.

 

[Things change I've changed]

I'm for both, i.e. your choice BUT if not current blue.

Agreed, a choice of both would be nice but if that's not possible then the current blue.

The Psychological Effects of Colour

Blue most always has a pleasant association. Blue also is associated with a cool, cleansed, relaxed, calm, hopeful, protected, reassuring, trusting and accepting feeling. It inspires mental control, clarity and creativity. Blue has a direct effect on the autonomous nervous system.
