site design
OK, now, as far as this site goes it is tops, but for some god awful reason you just can't get the colors right. I mean for the love of god can we do something about this before i lose my lunch????? the blue scroll bar on the right is ok, but the rest has to go. Please, please, please stop killing my sense of sight like this.

Ooops, i really didn't mean to come off as strong as i did now that i am re-reading the post. Sorry 'bout that. Also, don't get me wrong, i know this is just a side thing and i want you to know that i am 1) extremely grateful for all the work you have done, and 2) unaware that you were that color blind. Now, being color blind myself i know what a pain it is to try and get things to look right. If you would like I would like to ask Marisa (kozypup) if she would be willing to assist you in the page set up. She has an absolutely goregeous website that she designed (she's really quite good). I'll have to send you the URL for it when i get home. She could really do wonders for this place if you allowed her to. She loves web design and could help...that is if that would be ok with you and the other admins. Please let us know.

I liked it the way it was. Unfortunatly I don't think this thread will ever die until each user can customize their own colors (how's that for a project sith)
Edit: I forgot the constructive criticism Keeping the colors like they are right now is OK but the white background would be easier on the eyes if there was some sort of border around it (a la superhonda.org/board) Last edited by zsvx; 05-07-2001 at 06:25 PM. |

I like white
Good move on the site design.
Go to any website by a Fortune 500 company and you will see a white background 99% of the time. I think a white background gives it a more professional look. And it really makes the logo stand out. Now if we could take all the links at the top of the page and make them into some sort of button pad to the right of the logo.... Glad to see the new colors. |

If anybody comes across a page on the site that still has any portion of the old colour scheme (most likely the blueish boxes) could you send me an email, sith@subaru-svx.net? I think I got all the "hardcoded" references to the old scheme, but I'm not 100% sure.

I have one little "nitpicky" thing, and this is not a criticism, just a request. If it can't be done, no biggy. Can the site navigation tools and list be "squidged" over, as well as the final two "buttons?" Would that foul anything up? If everything was within one view (which these small things are preventing), people would be more cognicent of the chat and other functions, as well as being more capable of seeing who's in chat so they can join in. It stays hidden unless you go to the trouble of scrolling over, which I often forget to do.

I think that may be because of the resolution you're running your screen at - on my monitor they are all on the screen without side to side scrolling. Either way, we're going to be designing a new button bar (the usercp/register/calendar/whatever bar), so if we can make that a bit smaller it should slide everything over.

Yes, I checked my res. I can get everyting in at 1024 x 768, but, on my 17" monitor, it makes type and all, miniscule. Things are much more comfortable for my eyes (when writing) at 800 x 600. I can live with it. Thanks again.
