Marked 197 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 If you go to the homepage you will notice a new theme. Please vote on the new theme whether you would like to make the switch. Its a premade theme that doesn't take too long to set up. That, and the fact that I can upgrade this extremely flawed forum software if we do end up changing themes, is the motivation behind this switch. It's nothing major or anything to do with the new rmxpu I've mentioned in the past. So please vote. I was going to go ahead and do this, but once I upgrade the forum then this current forum theme will be unusable so upgrading is the point if no return, thus this poll, just to be on the safe side.

Bob423 52 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) maybe, but not to that. id prefer something like a color change, i like the current theme, and it would be weird to change. esp with the city background. there are some sites, like HBgames, that let you change the color theme, i think you should do that. edit: blue is my favorite color, so i like the current theme.

Polraudio 122 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 I think the new theme looks awesome. Is there a way to change the green to blue? It would look nicer with it blue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiriashi 117 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 There's no tooltip for the Homepage button. 'Should say "You're here =D" or something. I like it, all but the background. And yeah, Polraudio has a point, blue has been our color. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 Haha ok, now is probably a good time to mention that it is customizable and that the city background is obviously stupid for a gaming site. I can change the green to blue with a click of a button, and similarly replace the city background pretty quick. Try not to take it as is, but rather its potential. So it may not fit in with the site, but as long as it looks good then we can customize to suite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kellessdee 48 Report post Posted October 2, 2011 Am I the only one who thinks the new background is awesome? Q_Q I like it, only thing is the new navigation is too unforgiving. I would suggest reusing the same dropdown structure; with the secondary nav bar you have to be quite precise to get what you want. Otherwise, I like it :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted October 2, 2011 Ok the votes are split, ill revert the old theme and there wont be any changes until after November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kellessdee 48 Report post Posted October 2, 2011 *Ahem* I did not realize there was a poll ;) ;) Although, it doesn't make much of a difference to me...and it *MAY* be a better idea to wait until you have a matching theme for the forums as well...unless you already do :shifty: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 The poll was made in case you guys didnt like it, so I would not waste my time creating a matching forum version. Also if I had done that, I would have upgraded the forums to the newest version, which has its own benefits obviously. I cannot upgrade now as i would be required to make a new forum skin, whether it be the current one or another, to suit the new forum version. Despite there being 1 vote in favor, that's hardly a majority and therefore I'm not going ahead with this little idea for the time being. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marked 197 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 ha, thats annoying :P I was having an off study day when I posted this. I was going to make the theme that day, but now I don't have time till after exams. I'll probably have so much time I'll get too bored not to screw round with the site lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigace360 38 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 Everything but the backround, the city image just looks weird. If you can make it custumizable to what ever the user wants the sure like a wikia page, but for now it just isn't my style. :sweatdrop: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noob Saibot 38 Report post Posted October 4, 2011 I voted yes, because it's time this site started to UPGRADE not just its look, but content as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkbennett 16 Report post Posted October 4, 2011 Marked, the new theme is amazing. I know that in the past I have run my mouth about how the site needs to look like a gaming site, and less formal. I think what you have now is the perfect incarnation of my suggestion. You did an A+ job! I vote Yay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FranklinX 37 Report post Posted October 7, 2011 Maybe. It depends on how the new background image will be. I think you released it too early for us to make a judgement call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marked 197 Report post Posted October 8, 2011 Awesome :) It's coming up a year since I started that particular design. Its a sad story. Something got in my way which made me incorrectly abandon the project. This summer though I could have enough time to finish it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
