Poll: OcUK Colour Scheme

[blix]

Not that it makes any difference to the way I see the forums as I'll use the theme I like whatever happens, but I think the blue should be the default as it's the most distinctive and overall best.

 

[Bobster]

It was a hard one to call but i think Black just edges it for me.

 

[Wiggins]

Black.

However, as others have said, VB should allow you to add custom colors to the script for members to choose. Maybe 3 colors in the control panel would be a good idea.

 

[paradigm]

black for me.
about time for a change i think.

You've been here less than a year and think its "time for a change"?

 

[mrbios]

Considering how close the polls are i think its safe to say you need to supply an option to switch between the two

 

[Matteysan]

Voted to stay blue, but i think there should be an option for both

 

[utajoker]

blue!

it wouldnt be ocuk without being blue

 

[vincent1989]

i think it'd be good if people could choose.

for what it's worth i like the blue (it's how i know i'm on overclockers ) but the black is very appealing to the eyes (voted black)

 

[peterattheboro]

Can you not add the black as an extra theme?

Maybe a few others aswell?

 

[dymetrie]

I've voted Black as I've been using the black theme on my home PC for quite a while and really like it. Have Blue on my iPhone though and it's nice to see every now and then.

Keeping the forums Blue would mean that those who want the Black theme could still have it without disrupting those who want to keep it Blue, however as many have said then I think that the option to have a few different user selectable themes for the forums would be a good idea as however good the current Black theme is there are still some slight problems with it and creating a proper Black theme on VB would result in a much slicker looking theme

Seriously close on the votes though!

 

[Things change I've changed]

Yep, add an option for both colours in the user CP, but the winning colour from this poll becomes the default one, I think that would please everyone.

This poll must be rigged

 

[Raymond Lin]

Black wouold look just like [H]ard Forum, stay blue.

 

[Admiral Huddy]

Although the blue is instantly recognised and associated with OCUK forums, the black looks for very good and is more in-line with the shop

 

[RDM]

Personally I would prefer a white scheme as it looks less obvious in work!

This poll must be rigged

if it wasn't it'd be the ONLY one that wasn't

 

[platypus]

I'd prefer a different alternative, but of the two the default is the better.

It's much easier on the eyes. I'm sure with VBulletin though you can offer user based selection? Why not simply do that?

 

[InvaderGIR]

Having tried the black theme, it's really hard to see the difference between new and old posts and also the 'post reply' etc. buttons are really hard to see. I've voted for the blue theme but a UserCP theme chooser would be nice.

 

[meghatronic]

I've never seen a poll this close.

 

[gord]

Bah.. too subtle obviously..
